For targeted support, B6 supplements (under medical guidance) can also help — especially if your swelling is chronic or linked to B6 deficiency.
💡 Bonus Tip: Combine with These for Maximum Effect
Magnesium – helps reduce water retention and muscle tension
Potassium-rich foods – support fluid balance (like oranges, tomatoes, and leafy greens)
Hydration – drinking enough water actually helps flush out excess fluid
Gentle movement – promotes circulation (like walking or leg elevation)
⚠️ Important:
If swelling is sudden, severe, or painful, consult a healthcare professional — it could signal a circulatory, kidney, or heart issue.
Final Thought
For everyday swelling and water retention, Vitamin B6 is your natural, affordable, and effective ally. Add it to your diet, and your legs and feet may feel lighter, less puffy, and more energized in just a few days!
