Edema, or swelling of the lower extremities, is often caused by inflammation, poor circulation, or fluid retention. Parsley tea is an easy and all-natural way to lessen edema. The anti-inflammatory and powerful diuretic effects of parsley tea make it useful for reducing fluid retention, increasing blood flow, and alleviating gas.
Causes and Effects of Parsley Tea’s Natural Diuretic:
One way to alleviate bloating and extra water is by increasing urine output, which parsley does.
Flavonoids and vitamin C, which are abundant in parsley, are powerful antioxidants that reduce inflammation and promote healthy blood vessels.
Reduces swelling in the legs and feet by increasing blood flow, which parsley does.
Parsley tea aids the kidneys in their detoxification processes, which in turn improves their ability to filter waste and keep fluid levels stable.
