Drinking enough water is also the best treatment for fluid retention. When the body gets less water, it perceives this as a threat to survival and begins to hold onto every drop. Water is stored in extra cellular spaces [outside the cells]. This shows up as swollen feet, hands and legs. Diuretics [pills] offer a temporary solution at best as they force out stored water along with some essential nutrients. The body will again perceive this as a threat and will replace the lost water at the first opportunity. The best way to overcome the problem of water retention is to give your body what it needs, plenty of fresh clean water.
