Are you someone who has literally tried everything to lose weight and stay in shape, but nothing seems to work? Then its time to tweak the diet and move towards a diuretic diet that will help lose weight faster. Heres all you need to know about foods that help in losing water weight.

As per studies, it happens when fluid gets collected in the tissues, resulting in swelling of the tissues. It has been found that it often happens because of excessive salt consumption, foods rich in carbohydrates, hormonal birth control, increased cortisol levels, travelling, poor blood circulation, menstruation, and even during pregnancy. So, during the water weight, instead of flushing out the extra fluid via peeing, the body stores it between the organs and skin, which causes discomfort, but it doesn't mean that you've gained muscle or fat.

Increasing inflammation and changing weight can often be a result of water weight, which is basically water retention. The simplest way to fix this is by inducing foods that have diuretic properties and can help in fixing water retention and reduce body weight faster. Diuretic foods help in flushing out toxins along with excess sodium and water, which helps in losing weight faster. Here are some foods that can naturally help in reducing water weight.

Cranberries are naturally loaded with fiber, antioxidants and vitamin C, which works like a diuretic and helps in flushing out excess fluid from the body. This is because these berries contain nondialyzable material (NDM) that helps in preventing urinary tract infections, kidney and bladder infections.

Adding ginger to detox drinks and teas can also help in removing toxins from the body. Consuming ginger tea post meals can help in reducing water weight as well as improve digestion.

Foods that have high water content also help in keeping the body hydrated and also helps in removing excess water weight from the body. Apart from being an excellent diuretic cucumber also contains a compound called caffeic acid that helps in reducing water weight.

Another summer food is watermelon, which contains around 92% water and works as a good diuretic food. Moreover, the presence of fibers and essential nutrients in watermelon helps in replenishing the lost nutrients.
