Hydrating and Detoxifying Soup Recipe
A hydrating and detoxifying soup can be a soothing and effective way to reduce water retention. Here’s a recipe: Sauté 1 onion (chopped) and 3 cloves of garlic (minced) in 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add 4 cups of low-sodium vegetable broth, 1 cup of chopped celery, 1 cup of chopped carrots, 2 cups of spinach, and 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley.

Lifestyle Changes to Prevent Water Retention
Implementing certain lifestyle changes can also help prevent water retention. Regular exercise promotes circulation and reduces fluid buildup. Elevating your legs, wearing compression stockings, and maintaining a balanced diet are also effective strategies. Additionally, managing stress and ensuring adequate sleep can improve your body’s ability to regulate fluids.
