MS, Wilson6, WarLobo: thoughts on possible supps to combat fluid retention ...

[THeMaCHinE]

Another herbal remedy is Uva Ursi. I have a product from Planetary Formulas called Uva Ursi Diurite that contains Cleavers leaf, dandelion root, ginger root, marshmallow root, parsley root, and uva ursi leaf extract. It works fairly well, although I try to use it as a last resort.

Another product I found from Planetary Formulas is a digestive aid called Digestive Comfort - it's a chinese blend of herbs also known as Kan Ning Wan (healthy peaceful pills). I've found this helps with bloating/upset digestion when I'm PMS'ing.

I get both of these from iherb.com, BTW, in case you want to read more about them.

Thanks for the information I frequent iherb, so I will read about them. Are you using the Uva Ursi Diurite mostly as a pre-competition agent or on a daily basis (as needed)?
