With the arrival of summer, many people experience a feeling of swelling, especially in their legs, ankles, and abdomen. Have you ever noticed a feeling of heaviness without knowing why? You're probably suffering from fluid retention, a common problem when temperatures rise.
In this article, we explain why it happens, what habits make it worse, and how you can combat it.
WHY DO WE RETAIN MORE FLUIDS IN SUMMER?
Heat has a direct effect on the circulatory system: to regulate body temperature, blood vessels dilate, which encourages the outflow of fluid from the capillaries into the surrounding tissues. Furthermore, if the air is humid, the body sweats less, which hinders the natural elimination of water and toxins.
Added to this are other factors that can worsen the situation:
- High consumption of salt and processed foods.
- Low water intake.
- Sedentary lifestyle.
- Wearing tight clothing for long periods of time or standing or sitting for long periods of time.
The result: heavy legs, swollen ankles, a general feeling of "bloating"... and a lot of discomfort.
HOW TO ELIMINATE FLUID RETENTION NATURALLY?
With a few simple changes in your daily habits, you can notice a big difference. Here are some key tips:
1. Drink enough water: Although it may seem counterintuitive, staying hydrated helps eliminate fluids. If you don't drink enough, your body retains them as a precaution.
2. Reduce sodium: Avoid excess salt, sausages, snacks, and prepared foods. Opt for fresh, potassium-rich foods like bananas, spinach, or avocado.
3. Engage in regular physical activity: walking, swimming, cycling, or simply doing circulatory exercises at home improves venous and lymphatic return, reducing swelling.
4. Rely on natural supplements: In addition to healthy habits, there are natural formulas that can help boost your results. At LUXMETIQUE®, we've developed DREOX FORMULA , a specific solution to combat fluid retention.
