Some herbs have diuretic effects and may help with sodium and water retention. Instances include: Dandelion "Ginger" Parsley Hawthorn Juniper Natural diuretics could help lessen fluid retention by making you urinate more. But more scientific evidence can prove that these herbs have diuretic impacts, so you may not find them compelling. Ginger is a spice that has a long history of use as a medicinal herb. It's been used to treat everything from colds to diarrhea, but one of the most common uses for ginger is that it acts as a diuretic to get rid of water retention (swelling) in the body.

They are also sometimes prescribed as a weight-loss aid to help the body eliminate excess water weight associated with bloating or edema (swelling). As you can see from its many uses and benefits, having a diuretic handy when you're feeling bloated is always a good idea. How can you make

And yes, kale has plenty of benefits-including high levels of folate and more calcium, gram for gram, than a cup of milk. Still, kale's actually not the healthiest green on the block. In fact, in a recent report published by the Centers for Disease Control that ranked 47 "powerhouse fruits and vegetables," kale placed only 15th...
