One-Day Water Loss Diet by Martin Katahn

“Just in case you ever experience water retention, here is a day’s menu that will get rid of several pound of excess water. Women who experience periodic water retention find it particularly helpful, especially when it is combine with daily exercise. It will also do wonders for your mood since water retention is often associated with an increase in negative emotions such as depression.

Up to 1 pound of extra-lean beef, fish, or chicken, prepared without skin.

Up to 2 cups of low-fat cottage cheese

Asparagus, broccoli, fresh pineapple or melon, and citrus fruits

You can use this diet for two days if necessary. You can eat up to a full pound of lean meat, fish, or fowl and w cuts of low-fat cottage cheese each day. You can also eat all the named fruits and vegetables, plainly cooked, in almost unlimited quantities. To be on the safe side, however, the first time you use the diet, try a serving each of two different vegetables, and a serving each of two different fruits. This will show you how well the diet can work for you when followed in its most perfect form.”

Pages 141-142 Eat Naturally Diuretic Foods

Some foods have a natural diuretic function. They stimulate your kidneys to rid your body of water, rather than close them down as do salty foods (listed previously). Naturally diuretic foods tend to be relatively high in potassium content, compared with their sodium content.

Here is a list of foods that will help you get rid of excess water. The most effective ones seem to be fresh pineapple, asparagus, citrus fruits, and green vegetables. Combine these foods with lean meat and cottage cheese, and you can lose several pounds of water overnight.

Apricot

Banana

Cantaloupe

Figs

Grapefruit and grapefruit juice

Oranges and orange juice
