dandelion root...

[traxxx]

how much dandelion root should i be taking to shed a little water? Directions say only take on pill a day, will that be effective enough or should I up it?

I've wondered this as well. I've also wondered if it sheds intramuscular water, subcontaneous water, or both.

Obviously the former isn't desired. (I think).

very good point i hope it sheds subcontaneous water, isnt that best for physical appearance?

To my knowledge, yes.

And generally, you want diruetics to be potassium sparing.

I've used Cytodynes' Taraxatone before my last vacation (god knows how long ago that was ), and it worked pretty good. It might be cheaper to just use 2 grams of dandelion and 500 mgs. Uva Ursi along with some caffeine.

Just drink gallons of water. Even when i am ultra bloated from a sodium overload, i can always shed near enough of all it within a day. Just 'MAKE' yourself pee. Will benefit much more than taking D Root IMO.

That really is your best bet. Not a big fan of diuretics myself, herbal or prescription. They really should only be used for a competition or last minute photo shoot. Focus on getting your bodyfat down low enough where slight water retention shouldn't even be that noticable. And maybe it's just me, but I seemed to be holding more water after my 3rd vacation day when I was on that stuff. Rebound effect maybe.
