Diuretics: What are they for?

What are diuretics for?

Have you ever been unable to remove the ring or wedding band from your finger? Or can’t you button your pants at the end of the day? It is likely that you are suffering from fluid retention and need the help of diuretics.

The 3StepDiet^®️ explains everything to you:

Water retention

We call water retention when the body has difficulty eliminating excess fluid, and this liquid accumulates in areas such as legs, ankles, hands, and abdomen.

Diuretics

The 3StepDiet diuretics are dietary supplements that help fight water retention. It contains natural plant extracts with diuretic properties, vitamins, and minerals, carefully selected for this purpose. In the 3StepDiet variety of dietary supplements, we have some diuretics: Lean 1 and Lean 2.

Lean 1

It promotes the reduction of water retention and contains plants with detoxifying and thermogenic action, which means it speeds up metabolism. It’s indicated for weight loss and volume reduction accumulated in the abdominal area.

Lean 2

It helps fight cellulite associated with water retention in the legs, hips, and bottom. It entails a complex of plants, vitamins, and minerals that stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage, thus contributing to the reduction of cellulite and “orange peel” skin.

What else can you do?

In addition to diuretics, there are also other tricks you can use to reduce water retention:

• Season food with diuretic herbs (parsley, coriander) and anti-inflammatory spices (such as turmeric or ginger) instead of salt;
• Exercise regularly;
• Drink plenty of water to facilitate the elimination of excess sodium and accumulated fluids.

Professional guidance

To find which diuretic and dosage are most suitable for you, seek advice from a 3StepDiet^®️ Registered Dietitian.

A qualified professional will help identify what factors are causing your water retention. These can be as varied as eating foods rich in salt, hot temperatures, hormonal fluctuations, some medications (such as cortisone), changes in thyroid function, poor circulation, or a sedentary lifestyle.

Thus, besides advising the most appropriate diuretic depending on your needs, the Registered Dietitian also helps you with nutritional education, which is essential to minimize these effects.
