They can be visualized on the ankles, feet, face or formed against the background of the inflammatory process in the internal organs. In acute forms of pathology, drugs with diuretic activity characterized by serious side effects can not be avoided. And for chronic diseases it is better to use herbs with a diuretic effect. Parsley from edema is used due to its mild, but effective effects on the human body. Regular use of infusions and decoctions contributes to the elimination of not only excessive liquid, but harmful compounds.

plant. Many of the biologically active substances are part of the roots, leaves and roots of parsley. Their complex effect on the human body is diverse, can be used in the therapy of almost all diseases. But the ability of plants to reduce the expression of edema, prevent their formation is based on the content of such ingredients:

• Potassium. The microelement activates enzymes that normalize the metabolism, and also regulates the water-salt balance. With a deficiency of potassium, the functioning of the conduction system of the heart is disrupted, blood pressure rises;
• Magnesium. The state of the water-electrolyte balance, the proper functioning of the cardiovascular and nervous systems, depends on the content of this microelement in the tissues. The lack of magnesium leads to destabilization of membrane cells and fluid retention in the body.

Also in infusion and decoction of parsley from edemas from seeds, herbs and root crops, flavonoids show antioxidant activity preventing the negative impact of free radicals. This allows you to maintain the tone of cells and tissues, preventing the accumulation of excessive fluid in them. And essential oils of a spicy plant have a diuretic effect, urination increases, inflammation processes stop - a frequent reason for the formation of pronounced edema on the face and ankles.
