Already tried everything to reduce swelling, but nothing worked? Follow these three tried-and-true steps.

First and foremost, do not use diuretics: drink more water instead. It might seem counterintuitive, but the way our body functions is that when our fluid intake is reduced, it tries to store it instead of discharging it. If there’s enough fluid in the body, on the other hand, it gets rid of the excess easily. Consume enough proteins with your food every day: albumin is great for maintaining your electrolyte balance. Albumin deficit causes swelling (lack of the protein upsets the balance),” explained the expert.

According to Mr. Gorbatko, however, the most important thing is to get enough healthy sleep every night.

“Lack of sleep causes stress which, in turn, leads to accumulation of fluids in the body. Sufficient amounts of sleep may vary from person to person, the key is to get enough rest,” he said.

Follow these recommendations and forget about swelling forever.
