What is a Diuretic? A diuretic is a medication
or chemical that promotes the elimination of fluid in the body.
This can lead to an accelerated metabolism that seems to flush
out the fatty deposits that may lodge themselves on cells. Diuretics
break down fatty deposits into small chunks and makes it easier
for your body to flush these nasty little things out of your
body.
Asparagus
Asparagus contains the chemical asparagine. This is an alkaloid
that stimulates the kidneys and improve the circulatory process.
These alkaloids directly effect the cells and break down fat.
It also contains a chemical that helps to remove waste from
the body by breaking up the oxalic acid, this acid tends to
glue fat to cells, so by breaking the acid up, it helps to
reduce fat levels.
Beets
Beets are a strong diuretic that focuses on the liver and
kidneys. Beets flush out floating body fats. They have a special
iron the cleanses the corpuscles, corpuscles are blood cells
that can contain fat deposits.
It also contains a chlorine that also helps to flush out
fatty deposits. This chlorine stimulates the lymph which will
clear out the fat deposits.
Brussel Spouts
This vegetable stimulates the glands, the pancreas especially,
which releases hormones the has a cleansing effect on the
cells. There are also minerals the stimulate the kidneys.
Waste is released quicker and it helps to clean out the cells.
Cabbage
This cleanses your body of waste matter because it contains
sulphur and iodine, which helps to cleanse the mucous membrane
of the stomach and intestines. Cabbage is a great food if
you should have a pot belly or a middle age spread. The diuretic
cabbage will help to break up the fat in this area.
Carrots
Carrots contains carotene, a form of Vitamin A, this carotene
will start a fat flushing reaction in your system. This reaction
will literally wash out fat and waste quickly. The carotene
will be transformed into vitamin A in the intestines and this
process will create a speed up in your metabolism and cause
a reaction in your cells to remove fat deposits.
Celery
Raw celery has a high concentration of Calcium in a ready
to use form, so when you eat it, the calcium is sent directly
to work. This pure form of calcium will ignite your endocrine
system. The hormones in your body will break up the accumulated
fat build up. Celery also has a high level of magnesium and
iron which will clean out your system.
Cucumber
Cucumber contains a high sulphur and silcon content. These
minerals work to stimulate the kidneys to wash out uric acid,
which is a waste product. With this uric acid being washed
out, it stimulates the removal of fat, and loosens the fat
from the cells.
Garlic
If you read about the fat burning foods section you would
have seen Garlic on that list, well, it is also a natural
diuretic. Garlic has mustard oils and these oils create a
cleansing action in the body. They promote a vigorous action
of peristalsis, which is muscular contraction, and this will
loosen fat and help wash out fats. They can also breakdown
clumps of fat. So eat garlic and thin down.
Horseradish
We've all seen horseradish, few venture to use it, but it
has an amazing effect of dissolving fat in cells (no side
effects) and also as a cleansing effect on the body.
Lettuce
Lettuce contains iron and magnesium. These minerals will
enter your spleen, your spleen helps your immunity and protects
the body from illness. The spleen will use these minerals
make them stronger, and send them to the cells and tissues.
It will also help the liver, increase your metabolism, and
wash out fatty cells. The darker lettuces have more of the
minerals. So add Lettuce to your diet NOW!

contains high levels of Iron and Magnesium. These minerals
actually help to dissolve fat in the cells.
Tomatoes
Tomatoes have high Vitamin C and Citricmalic-oxalic acids.
The acid will accelerate the metabolic process. It also helps
the kidneys to release more water and helps to wash away fat.
The natural acids with the enzyme activated minerals prompt
the kidneys to filter out large quantities of fatty deposits
and then you eliminate them from your system. So add tomatoes
to your daily diet and your metabolism will thank you for
it.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Use this diuretic in small quantities. You can add it to
your salad as a dressing. What makes this such a powerful
diuretic is this: It is made from apples and the malic acid
in apples will create a fat burning process. Another factor
with this vinegar is the fermentation process causes the vinegar
to have constructive acids that join with alkaline elements
and minerals in the body. This produces a cell scrubbing effect.
It also contains high levels of potassium, which has an antisceptic
quality to that helps to eliminate fat deposits.
