Reduce salt intake

Table salt is the primary source of sodium in the diets of most people. It can be added to food with a shaker, but it can also be passively consumed as a part of premade or processed foods, sauces, and other common condiments.

Salt-rich diets make the body retain water. Swelling and puffiness are brought on by water retention, which affects many areas of the body, including the face. This could give the appearance of extra face fat. People who believe they have a fluid retention sensitivity should strive to restrict foods high in salt. This includes the majority of processed meals and snacks. Cutting away convenience foods, savory snacks, and processed meats can be a good way to lower your sodium intake because processed foods make up more than 75% of the average diet's sodium intake. People have more control over their salt intake when they prepare their own meals and snacks. The face should begin to look smaller when the body stops holding fluid.
