So crazy! I've had a desire for black tea so I bought a ton of it. I drink about 3 cups a day and have flushed so much water out of my system. I have a severe case of edema with seriously swollen feet, legs and ankles. Its been this way for about 8 years. Now, my legs look almost normal!
Wow, thats brilliant! I'm looking for ways to lessen the swelling in my ankles & feet. I'm so glad I saw your comment! I juice 3-5 celery stalks a day and drink & I've cut out sugar which DEFINITELY helps but I'll try black tea now & see how I get on with it. Will any grocery store-bought black tea do the job or do you drink a particular type?
Dr. Eric, your talks are so much more than any office visits I have ever encountered! Most times is a long wait in the waiting room, then a speedy in and out of the doctor's visit. It's sort of like running cattle through the inspection process! Thanks for your comprehensive explanation of what is going on.😇
PSA: I have patients whose kidneys failed after they were given prescription diuretics. Herbal diuretics are probably much more safer than the prescription.
I was give furosemide as a diuretic by a doctor. But it has the word 'FLUORIDE" in it and fluoride is a toxic chemical. So I did not take them. Wasted visit. Those doctors/nurses did not want to see me any more. They turn out to be drug pushers of the worst kind. Vitamins and foods are the best medicine.
@@hummingbirdbumblebee4618 I00 percent agree with you. Unfortunately I'm on it and hate it more than anything because I know it's hard on the kidneys. I was prescribed with thru diagnosed me with heart failure and said my heart is leaking fluid. Nobody knows how or why only thing I'm told is it's a string of bad luck🙄 I'm been trying for years to find a Natural fast acting direcutic but Lasix is the worst but the strongest. I'm never gonna stop looking and I'm claiming my healing because these doctors don't give a damn about people. We are just a check to them.
I’ve been to a urologist utis and inflamed bladder they wanted to prescribe a drug that that had lawsuits filed against it caused vision damage or complete blindness in a large population that took it def have not even touched it or had them prescribe it
I've been studying herbs (from home) for years. I can say Dr., that so far, in my seeking help with some serious issues, I'm finding you MOST thorough! Thank you!
My father recently has been diagnosed with CHF. He gets water build up and his doctors put him on a daily diuretic. However he’s worried about it damaging his kidneys. Recently he picked up a natural supplement which has many of these herbs and vitamin B1 as well. After just taking two tablets he did not need the diuretic for 7 days. His weight was stable during that period. He’s much happier if he just takes a pill once a week as opposed to needing the diuretic everyday. Plus I don’t believe these herbs will damage his body whereas the medicine will.
Thanks for mentioning that ... I usually drink hibiscus tea when I drink tea ... seems like it’s a good one for s lot of things.. I will have to have more of that stuff
@@jamieleahperezI get it periodically from a place in Wainfleet, Ontario. But you can buy it from them or their affiliate companies online. I believe it is the flower, which produces an extremely deep crimson tea. Enjoy!

You could practically make an Antipasto from this list 🤗 I’ve always enjoyed an Antipasto, but since learning about keto, its become my Battlecry when I go to an Italian restaurant. 🇮🇹
I haven't been to an italian restaurant in 9 years. Why? Mainly because a bag of Pasta costs 0,99 cents from the store, while the restaurant charges up to 35,- for something I can easily make at home for less than 2,-.
Thanks much Dr Berg for this vital info. Lately my right ankle is a bit swollen. I went to the doc and he prescribed a creme, no use. I will try some of these tea. Thanks again
So, last night, I decided to have watermelon and pineapple as my dinner. I kid you not, I woke up so many times to go urinate I barely slept. I've always had this issue and excessive urination, but this last year of living outside the U.S. and having to change my diet, I've noticed the excessive urination subsided. But this last week of me working, my diet changing again, the excessive urination has returned during the day. My choice of dinner last night, the frequency of bathroom visits plus the fact my lips are feeling a bit dry makes me feel dehydrated so my question is: 1. Is the water I'm releasing needed by my body to stay hydrated? 2. Does my body know when to stop, to keep my body hydrated? 3. My feet aren't too swollen, so is this water retention bad for me? 4. Is all this water release good or bad, if I'm starting to feel dehydrated?
Thank you Dr. Berg slowly trying to make those changes. Legs swollen, ankles, so much inflammation. So much appreciate the information you give to us do freely! 😊❤
Love me some diuretics. Joking but I love some of these herbs on the Dr.’s list. Nettles, black tea, and dandelion I use often almost daily. Parsley is another wonderful choice.
I've been taking dandelion for swollen feet and ankles; it's the root but even so it seems moderately effective. I think I'll try the tea; we have plenty of that for sure.
Did an angry pharmacist 'thumbs down' this video? The more natural herbs you use, the better you will feel. Dr. Berg, you are truly a God send. Thank you, so much, for helping those who are in need... and a great big hug to you!💝💝 Thumbs up!
Thanks Dr. B. PCP put me on HCTZ and though and relieved my excess fluid (7lbs in 10 days) meds caused chest compression, tightness, fatigue and pounding heart. Worse I've ever felt. Stopped taking that stuff. 👎🏽 Was looking for a more natural course. 👌🏾 Thanks!
really thank you Dr Berg for all the videos. I was looking for more informations related to edema & enlarged prostate. I do not want my grandpa's edema problem to get more serious and all I know from doctor is just taking medication.
This is a fantastic list! I've been trying to find this information in particular stinging nettle root. My husband has been taking black current oil, due to experiencing a pulled left shoulder across and his left side of his chest and because we can't get the right pcp here he thinks he has high blood pressure. This list also helps us. As we are chelating our son, we noticed ankle swelling.
Dr Berg can you tell me why do sites advise you not to take amlodopine and dandelion? I am so use to dandelion and I recently was out on 5mg of amlodipine so I stop taking the dandelion tea and extract. I really want to take dandeliion because it helps my hormones tremendously.
fresh organic Brussels sprouts are working for me. everytime! I eat something with sugar, I pop one after the meal and i do not retain fluid. If I don't take them, I retain fluid. If I have fluid retention, every time I pop one, it immediately begins to get rid of the fluid and my weight drops.
Why's isn't hibiscus tea here? O.o Oh and how much black tea should I be drinking on a daily since I eat a lot of carbs which then creates more sodium retention and , thus, more water retention...??
Used to say that picking Dandelions will make you pee the bed when i was a kid, was a saying all kids knew (UK) must be something in those old wives tales
Dr. Berg, is the reason you prescribe so much vegetation In the keto diet due to potassium? I see alot of meat eaters say that there is plenty of potassium in meat. Does it depend on the amount of meat one eats to the ratio of how much vegetation?
Hi Dr. Berg, thanks fir the info on edema. I've been taking your D3-K2, I use your electrolyte powder all day, I don't like just plain water, but I wanted to get away from the propel I had been drinking for years but wanted to get away from all the bad stuff I'd been hearing about it... and I take your trace minerals too A I taking too much potassium or something? Thanks
I just read that Hawthorne berry is a diuretic. I get here and it is not on the whiteboard. Then I see a picture that is named uva ursi. This looks like hawthorne berry. BUT it is Bearberry.
What is the safe max dose of garlic oil, I'm having trouble finding that info on the net. I was told that high doses of garlic oil or oil of oregano for long periods, can be toxic to the liver--- so what dose is safe?
Hi Dr. Berg I love your channel I’ve learned so much continue to. I have a water retention problem in my legs. It’s most all of the time. Sometimes they look great but mostly full of fluid. I do all things mentioned in your video. I am a transformation coach so I exercise everyday I eat super clean drink lots of water & I still struggle. I’ve been to doctors they don’t know why it’s happening. I’ve had blood work just done & all came back 100% normal. I’m 42 so I though it might be hormonal but the doctors tested they said it’s not that. I need your expert advice as to what I can possibly do to get rid of this. It’s awful to work so hard to be healthy & fit & have legs full of fluid. Please help 🙏🏻
Who said your tests came back normal? Have you looked at them yourself? I am asking because I was told the same, but it was not true. When I took a look at the results of my tests I saw that several were border line. For example my B12 was 50 and the normal range is 50-150, iirc. That is not a normal test result. That is B12 deficiency. I hope YOU, yourself took a look at your results. Wish you the best.
Thanks Doc for all your posts', I used to eat Dandelion and uva uri,it grew on the way side in Germany....Made your pizza...it was soggy bur OK,cause I started with a blender and then I thought, did he not say grate the cauliflower? Lol. Thanks for your knowledge,sooo wise.
Hello Dr. Berg.. I have fluid retention in my feet and legs my Doctor prescribed Bumetanide 2 MG three times daily, i urinate like a horse but the swelling in my feet and legs have not gone away at all, also i drink lipton tea every day along with water...The doctors just keep telling me to keep taking the Bumetanide which is obviously not working..Could you give me your advice on this problem? Thanks
Dr. Berg, please answer this question, please? How do you get so good in this field???😂❤😅😅😅! Thank you for always helping us. God bless you always Sir!🙏🏻❤️
i took ONE capsule of milk thistle with dandelion today and I have peed out several pounds of water. I am afraid I will be up every couple of hours tonight. I am taking this for liver support.,
too bad the picture for dandelions is in fact Catalonia, a variety of chicory. It has blue flowers and is a different plant. But it has similar diuretic properties.
What if I don't consume much carbs, already on keto, lost 47 pounds in 7 month and suddenly I started having water retention. So uncomfortable. What can I do? What am I doing wrong?
*Hibiscus* makes me pee like mad; I can't take it at night or I'm in the bathroom all night (and I never get up otherwise). If I'm retaining water for any reason I mix *_1 tsp of organic hibiscus powder and 1/3 tsp of organic dandelion powder_** in a cup of water (with stevia for taste) and, bam, I'm down 2 lbs in 24 hours* without changing anything else.
I'm only 27 and already starting to get water retention in the lower part of my calves even though I bike every day to and from work and the store. i don't have the best diet but I didn't think it was that bad either, guess I need to think twice and try harder. I'm going to my local herb shop and I'm going to greatly reduce glucose from my diet. Working at a ritzy bread/pastry shop that gives me free stuff everyday doesn't help, but what's life without a little discipline :)
I cut out carbs, upped my potassium, lowered my sugar and salt by heaps, drinking more water but im still holding water weight, I drink black coffee twice a day, what am I doing wrong?
@@Beast_10xX no I haven't, and I couldn't keep up suck a restrictive diet. It helped lower my bloating but it wasn't enough. I still eat high potassium and I take 6 prunes a day which are high potassium and help with my bloating.
@@Beast_10xX been to doctors and specialist, can't figure out what's wrong, it could be due to a hernia I have but can't be sure. Prunes definitely help since I suffer with constipation, cutting out gluten and dairy too. But I'm still bloated and distended so I'm trying to figure it out in my own.
I AM 46 YEAR'S OLD IN A NURSING HOME AT THE MOMENT TRYING TO GET OUT. I HAVE SEVERE NEUROPATHY AND FOOT DROP AND CAN'T WALK. I AM RETAINING ALOT OF WATER WEIGHT. HOW CAN I GET IT OFF OF ME?
I don't have fluid retention anymore, thank goodness. Thank you muchly for sharing this important information with us all, & take care of yourself to ❤🙂🐶🎅⛄🎄
@@klaiellordez2054 11 months ago I had been Keto & Intermittent Fasting for just over a year, I still am. I had given up Sugar, was drinking more water, eating more Potassium rich foods like Avocados. I also eat Garlic & take a Garlic supplement daily. Hope that helped. Take care & Happy Christmas Klaiel. 🎅⛄🎄
Everywhere I look , there is the Dandelion Root. I have yet to see dandelion leaf. Can someone tell me if this is effective. Or recommend where I can purchase the dandelion leaf
7 - stinging nettle root, Wow oh wow, that stuff scare me silly, I've not used it before or since and I still have a bag of it.... I didn't go mad, a few teaspoon and made my tea, drank it and within 30 minutes I peed like I've never peed before, on an on and on it went (I'm male btw) it got to the stage where I had right and left lower back (kidney area) flank pain as I was peeing. Not sure if I'll try it again but yep. That cleared out the pipe work alright.
Haha. I drank the stinging nettle tea to try to get rid of bloating over 3 yrs ago. It did absolutely nothing. I ended up in the ER with stage 5 kidney failure and the doctor looked at me and said: "Yeah, no tea was going to fix THIS !" 😃
@R C Well when I was pregnant I had lots of swelling and was told I had pre-eclampsia and to lay off the salt. Then eclampsia. I continued to have edema after the pregnancy and I was told to lay off the salt some more and to lose the baby weight and it would get better. I saw 2 more different doctors and all said they didn't know why I didn't feel good and why I couldn't shed the pregnancy weight. I was just eating to much food and eating to much salt. Could not convince anybody otherwise. It was not true at all by the way. I ate pretty healthy. My bloodwork was always fine they said. But I kept saying something was very wrong. Eventually I just quit going to the doctors. None were helpful anyway and just made me feel worse with each visit. So I just ate right and took my vitamins and let the swelling in my legs come and go. Sometimes I'd be better and then I'd swell worse again. Then around March of 2016 the bloating got really bad and by the end of June swelling was so bad among other problems but I refused to go to the doctor or hospital. Bc I didn't want to be told there was nothing wrong and to just lay of the salt or change my diet. On July 1st I was minutes away from death and finally agreed to go to a hospital. It took me 4 hours to make it out of my bed and to the car. I passed out on the way to the hospital. I don't remember a thing or my first dialysis treatment. Over a period of time I had 100 lbs of nothing but fluid removed!!! No wonder I felt bloated. The majority was gained between March and July but probably before then as well just not as bad. I dunno what hurt the most? The doctors accusing me of eating badly or my friends, coworkers and spouse accusing me of pigging out in secret because nobody saw me eat, only drink. But I was getting "fat" so I must have been eating lots. When actually I didn't feeling like eating a thing. So yeah I was born with a kidney disease and never knew it. The symptoms where there but always got diagnose as something else. Maybe it was better not knowing? I dunno. Hard to say. Outcome was the same. Probably saved myself a few hospital and doctors trips in my lifetime. Better than the few years of getting wrongly accused of poor diet habits from 2002 on. By some miracle I made it to 49 yesterday 🙂. And maybe by some miracle they'll perfect 3D printed kidneys soon? That would be totally awesome!!! 😇
Hello, I struggle without taking a small handful of salt throughout the day and I feel even worse if I drink water. Sodium tests came back normal. I think it’s low aldosterone and water retention. Also suffer with low blood pressure. Any recommendations?
Although we cannot advise on any diagnosis or treat any condition, here's an excellent Dr. Berg's video that you may want to watch and research further: th-cam.com/video/SNqSWV93anA/w-d-xo.html With all else, please consult with your doctor. Dr. Berg's Support Team.
You should always be drinking healthy amounts of water anyway. The only reasons not to increase your intake would be if you have a kidney disease & your nephrologist puts you on fluid restriction, if you're diagnosed with congestive heart failure, or your sodium is excessively low. Otherwise, drink up!
Anyone know if Furosimide can cause weakness? Like it being super effortful to walk? My dog is on this and the point is to get water out of the body but instead he is just constantly thirsty and yet finds it effortful to walk. If it pulls water from all over the body wouldn’t it makes sense that it weakens you? Because it’s not just pulling water if most of the body is made of water. Somehow some way it is making my dog has deficiency. Need to move onto natural diuretics. Lord have mercy.

I’ve been to doctors they don’t know why it’s happening. I’ve had blood work just done & all came back 100% normal. I’m 42 so I though it might be hormonal but the doctors tested they said it’s not that. I need your expert advice as to what I can possibly do to get rid of this. It’s awful to work so hard to be healthy & fit & have legs full of fluid. Please help 🙏🏻
Who said your tests came back normal? Have you looked at them yourself? I am asking because I was told the same, but it was not true. When I took a look at the results of my tests I saw that several were border line. For example my B12 was 50 and the normal range is 50-150, iirc. That is not a normal test result. That is B12 deficiency. I hope YOU, yourself took a look at your results. Wish you the best.
Search in google why body retain fluid
Can you take supplements? Or do you need to take directly from the plant or herbs?
Thanks Doc for all your posts', I used to eat Dandelion and uva uri,it grew on the way side in Germany....Made your pizza...it was soggy bur OK,cause I started with a blender and then I thought, did he not say grate the cauliflower? Lol. Thanks for your knowledge,sooo wise.
Talk more about dandelion, thank you Dr. Berg!
Hello Dr. Berg.. I have fluid retention in my feet and legs my Doctor prescribed Bumetanide 2 MG three times daily, i urinate like a horse but the swelling in my feet and legs have not gone away at all, also i drink lipton tea every day along with water...The doctors just keep telling me to keep taking the Bumetanide which is obviously not working..Could you give me your advice on this problem? Thanks
Try fennel tea - probably the best!
Many of these are high in oxalate ion. For those of us that tend to get kidney stones, are there any low oxalate alternatives?

Dr. Berg, please answer this question, please? How do you get so good in this field???😂❤😅😅😅! Thank you for always helping us. God bless you always Sir!🙏🏻❤️
Appreciate your message, thanks for your support!
Hi, what to give to a child that doesn't or won't grow? Thank you Dr. Berg.
Can you please tell about dandelion root it's dosage
i took ONE capsule of milk thistle with dandelion today and I have peed out several pounds of water. I am afraid I will be up every couple of hours tonight. I am taking this for liver support.,
Parsley tea for PMS is very good also.
Excellent natural herbs 👌💚 thanks Dr. Berg 👍🌷🌿💕
Corn Silk also helps control bed wetting, relieves
too bad the picture for dandelions is in fact Catalonia, a variety of chicory. It has blue flowers and is a different plant. But it has similar diuretic properties.
What if I don't consume much carbs, already on keto, lost 47 pounds in 7 month and suddenly I started having water retention. So uncomfortable. What can I do? What am I doing wrong?
What about ginger? Ginger works amazing got me!
Hey beautiful?😁💚💯
Thanks a lot Dr.Berg.
cucumber and cranberries too
Great video Dr. Berg, easy to find, accessible foods
Hey Dr. Berg what do you think about the iceman? Would be great if you could respond.
*Hibiscus* makes me pee like mad; I can't take it at night or I'm in the bathroom all night (and I never get up otherwise). If I'm retaining water for any reason I mix *_1 tsp of organic hibiscus powder and 1/3 tsp of organic dandelion powder_** in a cup of water (with stevia for taste) and, bam, I'm down 2 lbs in 24 hours* without changing anything else.
I'm only 27 and already starting to get water retention in the lower part of my calves even though I bike every day to and from work and the store. i don't have the best diet but I didn't think it was that bad either, guess I need to think twice and try harder. I'm going to my local herb shop and I'm going to greatly reduce glucose from my diet. Working at a ritzy bread/pastry shop that gives me free stuff everyday doesn't help, but what's life without a little discipline :)
I cut out carbs, upped my potassium, lowered my sugar and salt by heaps, drinking more water but im still holding water weight, I drink black coffee twice a day, what am I doing wrong?
I have same problem did you find out the cause
@@Beast_10xX no I haven't, and I couldn't keep up suck a restrictive diet. It helped lower my bloating but it wasn't enough. I still eat high potassium and I take 6 prunes a day which are high potassium and help with my bloating.
@@nicolekanaan4801 did you go to a doctor or something or you just try to find out u self?
@@Beast_10xX been to doctors and specialist, can't figure out what's wrong, it could be due to a hernia I have but can't be sure. Prunes definitely help since I suffer with constipation, cutting out gluten and dairy too. But I'm still bloated and distended so I'm trying to figure it out in my own.
@@nicolekanaan4801 Try cutting out spinach and almonds, super high in oxilites, avoid beer, do keto w daily fast, take ox bile w fatty foods.
I would also recommend Hibiscus tea.
Thank you for sharing!
Also, I want to try the dandelion but my current birth control says it may cause over production of potassium and I'm not sure if that's dangerous

What all did you do to get rid of it?
@@klaiellordez2054 11 months ago I had been Keto & Intermittent Fasting for just over a year, I still am. I had given up Sugar, was drinking more water, eating more Potassium rich foods like Avocados. I also eat Garlic & take a Garlic supplement daily. Hope that helped. Take care & Happy Christmas Klaiel. 🎅⛄🎄
00kidney says these herbal remedies are great for the kidney health too.They are naural and healthy as home remedies
Thank you so much dr berg.. ❤
Does organic uncaffeinated Black tea work as a natural diuretic? Or does the black tea have to be caffeinated?
Are there any herbs that are NOT diuretic? I like to drink herbal tea but I do not need the diuretic effect; I need to keep my volume up.
He is so smart...in all ways,...
Thank you~Good Morning~Have a Blessed Christmas Season ❣️🎄💝🙋♀️
Can dandelion pill form cause too low potassium? Also can it cause dehydration??? Please help
Everywhere I look , there is the Dandelion Root. I have yet to see dandelion leaf. Can someone tell me if this is effective. Or recommend where I can purchase the dandelion leaf
7 - stinging nettle root,
Wow oh wow, that stuff scare me silly, I've not used it before or since and I still have a bag of it....
I didn't go mad, a few teaspoon and made my tea, drank it and within 30 minutes I peed like I've never peed before, on an on and on it went (I'm male btw) it got to the stage where I had right and left lower back (kidney area) flank pain as I was peeing.
Not sure if I'll try it again but yep. That cleared out the pipe work alright.
@R C Yeah Dandelion tea is better then nettle leaf tea.
Haha. I drank the stinging nettle tea to try to get rid of bloating over 3 yrs ago. It did absolutely nothing. I ended up in the ER with stage 5 kidney failure and the doctor looked at me and said: "Yeah, no tea was going to fix THIS !" 😃
@R C Well when I was pregnant I had lots of swelling and was told I had pre-eclampsia and to lay off the salt. Then eclampsia. I continued to have edema after the pregnancy and I was told to lay off the salt some more and to lose the baby weight and it would get better. I saw 2 more different doctors and all said they didn't know why I didn't feel good and why I couldn't shed the pregnancy weight. I was just eating to much food and eating to much salt. Could not convince anybody otherwise. It was not true at all by the way. I ate pretty healthy.
My bloodwork was always fine they said. But I kept saying something was very wrong. Eventually I just quit going to the doctors. None were helpful anyway and just made me feel worse with each visit. So I just ate right and took my vitamins and let the swelling in my legs come and go. Sometimes I'd be better and then I'd swell worse again. Then around March of 2016 the bloating got really bad and by the end of June swelling was so bad among other problems but I refused to go to the doctor or hospital. Bc I didn't want to be told there was nothing wrong and to just lay of the salt or change my diet. On July 1st I was minutes away from death and finally agreed to go to a hospital. It took me 4 hours to make it out of my bed and to the car. I passed out on the way to the hospital. I don't remember a thing or my first dialysis treatment. Over a period of time I had 100 lbs of nothing but fluid removed!!! No wonder I felt bloated. The majority was gained between March and July but probably before then as well just not as bad. I dunno what hurt the most? The doctors accusing me of eating badly or my friends, coworkers and spouse accusing me of pigging out in secret because nobody saw me eat, only drink. But I was getting "fat" so I must have been eating lots. When actually I didn't feeling like eating a thing. So yeah I was born with a kidney disease and never knew it. The symptoms where there but always got diagnose as something else. Maybe it was better not knowing? I dunno. Hard to say. Outcome was the same. Probably saved myself a few hospital and doctors trips in my lifetime. Better than the few years of getting wrongly accused of poor diet habits from 2002 on.
By some miracle I made it to 49 yesterday 🙂. And maybe by some miracle they'll perfect 3D printed kidneys soon? That would be totally awesome!!! 😇
@@Kleinochsenfurter ouch- hope it's working out for you. All the best.
@R C whoops. I suppose hopefully no lasting damage
Curious, can dialysis patients drink dandelion leaf tea? (potassium issues).
Yes it's best for the kidneys
Is dandelion tea safe during pregnancy!?? Thank you!
Please check with your doctor before taking any supplements.

01:09 Doctor, should I eat it, smoke it or straight it to my vein?
Would dandelion tea work
Hello, I struggle without taking a small handful of salt throughout the day and I feel even worse if I drink water. Sodium tests came back normal. I think it’s low aldosterone and water retention. Also suffer with low blood pressure. Any recommendations?
Although we cannot advise on any diagnosis or treat any condition, here's an excellent Dr. Berg's video that you may want to watch and research further:

What~? No Lemon mentioned ~?~?~?~
How many cups of dandelion leaf tea do you drink as a diretic?
I wonder if these will remove fluid from abdomen
Did you ever find a solution?
Does taking diuretics mean you have to drink more water?
You should always be drinking healthy amounts of water anyway. The only reasons not to increase your intake would be if you have a kidney disease & your nephrologist puts you on fluid restriction, if you're diagnosed with congestive heart failure, or your sodium is excessively low. Otherwise, drink up!
Amy Fogarty good explanation👍
@@TheStressLessRN Actually even if you are perfectly healthy it is also possible to drink too much water
@@tomkot true story, but most people wouldn't.
"Interesting". Also you didn't even answer my question.
Anyone know if Furosimide can cause weakness? Like it being super effortful to walk? My dog is on this and the point is to get water out of the body but instead he is just constantly thirsty and yet finds it effortful to walk. If it pulls water from all over the body wouldn’t it makes sense that it weakens you? Because it’s not just pulling water if most of the body is made of water. Somehow some way it is making my dog has deficiency. Need to move onto natural diuretics. Lord have mercy.
What about " Wild Carrot"? One of the amazing sofar 🔥🔥🔥
