It could be broscience, but there is speculation that before fat cells empty, they fill up with water before being drained and shrinking.
Is it possible that natural diuretics like dandelion leaf can expel subcutaneous water from fat and water retention while sparing intra muscular water?
That way fat cells can flush faster and instead of waiting for the “whoosh”, you will accurately see how much fat youre losing week to week without a plateau.
You’ll expel water from under your skin and look even worse. There’s no fast way to get rid of fat. Proper diet and training.
Interesting. It seems that the watwr retention is more hormonal than anything else. Apparently its higher cortisol. Maybe ashwagandha could help lower stress, but all roads that seem effective look like bandaids. Nothing really solves the problem until the cut is over.
-Take a sponge, soak it in water and it’s bigger.
-Dry it out, and it’s smaller.
But the sponge is the same actual size regardless of state.
Cut the fuckin thing in half and it gets noticeably smaller with or without the water.
It is mostly due to sodium intake. Estrogen levels have some impact, as does cortisol.
Still, the best way to reduce water weight is to just lose the fat.
