There are many different cleanses out there and different subsets of different combinations of the largest known ways to total cleanse the body, and there are also some basic principles found in every one of them, one of these principles is the diuretic cleanse. A diuretic cleanse is really any cleanse that helps remove excess water/waste from the body; this is not just limited to the colon or digestive system either. Your body can hold within its fat and within its tissue excessive water weight which can not only ad to increased illness but also carry toxins as well. Fluid retention is a very common problem that a lot of people, especially those who have lived a rather unhealthy lifestyle deal with, and is one of the many factors that contribute too many people’s difficulty in weight loss despite plenty of exercise.
Two of the most common areas to deal with in the body for helping to relieve water retention is the bladder and the kidneys. Your kidneys are especially important here as they play a huge role in your body’s elimination process, and excrete waste in the form of urine. These organs perform the rather complex task of removing toxins and harmful waste from protein metabolism which is then created into urea or uric acid. In addition to those vital roles, they also extract from the lymphatic system and the blood as well used up minerals and other various elements too, this includes waste water- hence a diuretic cleanse helps to stimulate this process in a body that has been nutritionally deficient for a long time. A great and simple formula for cleansing this set of organs is the regular intake of fresh juiced celery juice which is widely known as a natural diuretic. Another daily tonic would be the drinking of freshly brewed dandelion tea, dandelion is also known for being an excellent diuretic but it also is a fantastic source of potassium and acts as a great blood tonic, a urinary tract stimulant which is good for the bladder, and of course a great cleanser for removing excess liquid from the body. Please be sure you include dandelion leaf solids in the tea for a stronger effect.
Dandelion is great as a diuretic cleanse, and is fantastic for stimulating the urinary tract as mentioned above. But there are other great tonics and herbal diuretic ingredients out there as well for urinary and bladder issues. One of these is Bearberry which when used with corn silk has been known to greatly sooth and heal the urinary tract. There are a lot of different tinctures out there so be sure to review the products well and ask others who may be taking it or have before purchasing any product. Another one of the really great diuretic herbs to help in this area is Cleavers which can really round out the overall herbal approach mentioned above. Make sure that along with a diuretic cleanse you are also getting fresh veggie and fruit juice along with a healthy diet, and don’t rely on the cleanse or a diuretic herb alone as you also need vitamin B6 which supports kidney function, but you also need reasonable amounts of magnesium and potassium too the latter of which is really great at balancing out high levels of sodium which often lead to excess water retention.
