Want To Get Rid of Water Retention Try This Simple Recipe Have you ever run into the situation that you can’t get into the exact same jeans you were in just 14 hours ago? I’m not exaggerating! This is exactly what happened to me a few years ago. My stomach felt like it was full of lard and when I finally forced myself to stand on the scale, I couldn’t forgive myself for what I ate that week. The direct result was totally crushed self-confidence overnight. Through extensive research, I realized that there’s virtually no way for someone to gain that much fat overnight (Thank God!), and the only reason you could gain so much weight in such a short period of time was because of water retention. So is it true that instead of getting fat, I was really just flooded…? Not really. The truth is that water retention, which I experienced, is simply a symptom of inflammation. And inflammation, according to Dr. Axe, is the root cause of almost every disease on this planet.
