A persistently puffy face, despite healthy habits like regular exercise, good hydration, reduced salt intake, and maintaining a healthy weight, can have several underlying causes.
-To identify the root cause, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional who can recommend appropriate blood tests and assessments.
-This will help rule out or confirm any medical conditions that might be contributing to your symptoms.
-Nutrient deficiencies are also a possible reason: lack of protein can disrupt fluid balance and cause swelling; low
vitamin B6,
vitamin D, iron, magnesium, or zinc can all contribute to facial puffiness by affecting fluid retention and inflammation.
-Once a diagnosis is made, as a dietitian, I can work with you to create a tailored nutrition and lifestyle plan that supports your specific health needs - whether that involves managing inflammation, supporting hormone balance, or addressing any nutrient deficiencies.
