3. Oat Broth
Oats are a powerhouse grain with benefits ranging from improved digestion to lower blood pressure, and they can help with swelling, too.
Use two tablespoons of whole oats, rinse them, and steep them in 300 ml of boiling water. Let them soften, then drink this twice a day before meals for about a month.
4. Horseradish and Lemon Mix
Horseradish is known for its strong diuretic effect and can be useful for conditions like cystitis, gout, or kidney stones.
However, it’s best mixed with other ingredients to avoid irritating your stomach. Blend 2–3 whole lemons (with peel) with 120 grams of grated white horseradish and a bit of honey.
Take half a teaspoon twice daily, about 10 minutes before meals, for 2–3 weeks. Note: Avoid this remedy if you have a sensitive stomach.
5. Cranberry Decoction
Whether fresh or dried, cranberries are great for reducing swelling.
Add two teaspoons of berries to 200 ml of water and boil for 15 minutes.
Strain the mixture and sip it throughout the day for a gentle cleansing effect.
6. Parsley-Carrot Juice Blend
Here’s a powerful detox drink:
- 1 bunch parsley
- 1 carrot
- 1 orange
- ¼ lemon
- 1 tablespoon flaxseeds
- 100–150 ml of water
Juice the citrus fruits and add them to a blender along with chopped carrot, parsley, flaxseeds, and water. Blend until smooth, then strain.
Drink it fresh without sweeteners, as sugar can reduce its effectiveness.
Enjoy it once daily and expect noticeable results in a week, including reduced swelling, improved energy, and even some weight loss.
While these natural solutions can help reduce occasional puffiness, don’t forget that regular physical activity and a balanced diet remain key to long-term health. Let these simple yet powerful remedies support your wellness journey!
