Reduce water retention and edema by supplementing with potassium-rich foods

HẠ MÂY (THEO ABOLUOWANG) |

Supplement properly with foods that reduce water retention, edema, improve cardiovascular health and limit fatigue due to lack of exercise.

Bananas

On average, 100 grams of bananas provide about 368 mg of potassium, and are also rich in magnesium and fiber. This is a convenient food, which can be used immediately for breakfast or snacks to easily supplement potassium.

Avocados

Avocados are rich in potassium, vitamin E and Omega-9 fatty acids, which support blood circulation. However, due to their high fat content, it is necessary to control portion sizes to avoid excess calories.

Watermelon

Not only rich in potassium, watermelon also contains citrulline - a compound that can be converted into nitric oxide, which helps dilate blood vessels. This fruit is suitable for office workers who are inactive and easily have leg edema.

Cucumber and ginger

Cucumber has diuretic effects, supporting sodium excretion. Meanwhile, ginger helps warm the body, enhance blood circulation and contribute to slowing down the aging process of blood vessels.

Kiwi

Green kiwi is rich in fiber, while yellow kiwi stands out with its vitamin C and citric acid content, contributing to improving blood circulation.

Red beans and taro

Taro retains a fairly stable amount of potassium after boiling. Red beans are rich in saponins and anthocyanins, which are good for cardiovascular health; you should prioritize using unsweetened red bean water to limit sugar intake.
