How to Reduce the Risk of Edema: Advice from a Doctor
The appearance of edema is an unpleasant situation. Therefore, it is important to know the reasons.
As neurologist Ekaterina Demyanovskaya noted in a conversation with representatives of the Life.ru publication, the problem often lies in nutrition.
Excess salt increases the risk of swelling.
There is also a possibility of heart problems if there is too much of this component in the diet.
In addition, it should be taken into account that edema is typical for people with a protein deficiency in their diet: fluid leaks into the tissues because the blood itself loses its ability to retain water.
The doctor emphasized that alcohol should be excluded if you want to get rid of swelling.
