The human body is 60-70% composed of water. Almost 2/3 of the water is stored inside the cells. The rest of the water is in the intercellular space. The volume of fluid increases, forming bloating. Swelling in the legs can portend diseases ranging from veins, kidneys, and the thyroid gland. If you often experience leg swelling, see your doctor because treatment depends on the cause. To quickly get rid of edema, it is advisable to follow the tips below.
Let’s start with food
Salt and carbohydrates are the first products that should be excluded from the diet in the first place, or at least reduce their consumption. It is also advisable to forget about spicy and unhealthy dishes. Before going to bed, it’s better not to eat too much.
Vitamins and Minerals
Edema is a signal that the body needs vitamins and minerals. Add more fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs to your diet. Do not neglect foods rich in potassium and magnesium.
More movement
A sedentary lifestyle is not an option. Start with walks and exercise, especially in the morning. Physical activity “squeezes” excess water out of the body.
Drink water
Everyone is aware of the need to drink at least 2 liters of water per day. Drink water during the day, and do not make up for its lack before going to bed.
Sleep well
Sleeping nights will make you look good and fresh. Your legs will rest during sleep, and swelling will decrease.
Lymphatic massage
If swelling appears on your face, consider lymphatic massage. Put yourself in the hands of an experienced specialist who will help you solve the problem of stagnation of water and lymph.
