My gynac mentioned barley water can be good for me but didnt tell exactly how to make it. Im 6 months and dealing with some water retention. Can someone share how they prepare it at home?
while it is a great home remedy, please consult your gynac before drinking it regularly as it acts as a diuretic. if she says yes, just boil clean barley grains and strain the water.
honestly it tastes like sad water but it works wonders for bloating! just boil the grains in water, strain it and maybe add a squeeze of lemon so you can actually swallow it.
i had major water retention in my ankles, so i used to boil barley with a little ginger, strain it, and drink it lukewarm. it really helped me personally to feel lighter.
barley water is great for reducing swelling if your doctor allows. just boil a tablespoon of barley in 3 cups of water till it reduces, strain it and drink once cool.
my pregnancy tracker app suggested barley water for detox and acidity. you just need to wash the barley, boil it until the grains are soft, strain the cloudy water, and drink it with a bit of lemon.
