10 Natural Diuretics

Diuretic #3: Watermelon
There’s nothing quite like a refreshing watermelon snack on a hot summer’s day. Made of 92% water, this fruit is very, very juicy and can help to satiate thirst. While you would expect such as watery snack to send you to the bathroom, the high water content is not the only thing that makes watermelon a diuretic.
Watermelons also contain various minerals and natural sugars that help to stimulate the kidneys into producing more urine. While it is delicious eating just as it is after cutting it open, it can also be blended to make a delicious and refreshing smoothie. You could also try adding it to a salad.
