Detox water, or draining water, is water generally flavored with fruit, spices, or herbs with draining and slimming effects, which help the body eliminate toxins and purify thanks to the extraction of the beneficial active ingredients of the ingredients used through infusion and maceration in water.
Draining waters, as well as draining herbal teas, have a significant effect on the body, as they are diuretic, beneficial against cellulite and water retention, but also tasty and refreshing, excellent in summer to quench thirst and stimulate the body and the lymphatic system in the disposal of liquids and sweating, therefore essential in a draining diet.
Detox flavored draining waters are an excellent source of minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, and important nutrients that help drain and eliminate toxins and excess fluids from the body, purifying the body and hydrating the body and skin.
Depending on the ingredients used inside them, flavored draining waters can combine a slimming, anti-cellulite, sweat-inducing effect, help in digestion and against abdominal bloating, counteract water retention, improve circulation and the functioning of the lymphatic system, as well as purify the liver and activate the kidneys, the main organs responsible for eliminating toxins from the body.
Many of the problems associated with poor drainage of body fluids are indeed due to a slowing down of the lymphatic system and poor blood circulation. Taking draining and purifying waters made with draining herbs and fruits rich in vitamins and antioxidants, following a healthy diet, and practicing physical activity are small interventions that can help counteract these disorders.

However, preparing flavored draining detox water at home is very simple, and it gives you the opportunity to use your favorite ingredients in addition to draining herbs and fruits, creating special and delicious flavors and blends.

As we said, draining flavored waters can be prepared using a wide variety of draining ingredients. In general, detox flavored waters are prepared by infusing in water:
