Weight loss methods for edema type obesity:
1. attention to diet
It is best to keep the meals light and control the salt to 3-5 grams per day. Avoid grease, marine fish, shrimp, crab, etc. Avoid using large amounts of spicy foods such as onions, leeks, ginger, and garlic in vegetables. Pumpkins, snow red, raw and cold fruits, etc. should also be avoided. Eat more foods that help relieve swelling, such as bananas, potatoes, carrots, avocado, oranges, etc. Red beans and coix seed are both top quality drainage products. You can use red beans, coix seed, black rice, white kidney beans, red rice, millet kernels and red dates to cook porridge to improve edema.
2. do more exercise
Exercise widens blood vessels so that water entering the kidneys can be better drained out. If you want to eliminate edema through exercise, it is recommended to start with the most sweaty aerobic exercise and conduct a half-hour walk or jog every two days, so that you can widen the blood vessels and drain water.
White-collar workers often sit in the office and spend less time doing exercise. It is recommended to use exercise before going to bed to help reduce swelling. The specific method is: lie flat on the bed, put your legs on the wall, make your legs and your body at a 90-degree angle, and persist for 20-30 minutes to help relieve lower body edema caused by poor blood circulation. It is very effective for thin calves.
