HRI Water Balance™ is a traditional herbal medicinal product that contains dandelion, uva-ursi leaf, and buchu. Combined, these ingredients have uniquely effective and rapid effects on water retention and associated symptoms.
HRI Water Balance™ water retention tablets are used for quick relief from bloating and the discomfort of water retention. This can happen when the body stores excess water instead of passing it out naturally through urine and sweat. This may be due to hormonal imbalances, excess salt intake and/or circulatory concerns.
Signs of water retention include swollen hands, ankles, or abdomen, which often occur around menstruation, in the hot summer months, or after long periods of immobility, such as on long flights.
HRI Water Balance is a powerful blend of three active extracts - all of which are traditionally used for water retention and bloating relief to restore natural balance:
Dandelion tablets are used to safely reduce water retention and provide relief from swelling caused by bloating
Uva ursi's benefits include maintaining the functioning of the bladder and urinary tract
Buchu leaf is a powerful antioxidant that is used to rid the body of excess water retention to ease swollen ankles
Water Balance™ has been given THR (Traditional Herbal Registration) status by the MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency).
