Common Causes Of Diuresis

Specific Elements Of Diet

There’s an old saying that you are what you eat, and specific elements of diet can cause individuals to use the bathroom more often than they should. Some of the food we eat is a natural diuretic, but not everyone is aware what they are eating is making them use the bathroom excessively. For example, some individuals might love to use herbs when they cook. Dandelion and parsley are both natural diuretics, which cause the kidneys to work overtime, resulting in more frequent bathroom usage. Other things like green tea and some black teas are the same. If individuals eat too much salt, their kidneys will work overtime to expel all the sodium. The same goes for caffeinated beverages. Individuals who drink a lot of tea, soda, or coffee, might find they use the bathroom more than those who don’t drink those things.
