A member asked:
Good day are there any fruits or vegetables that can be consumed that would have the same effect on the body that lasix (furosemide) does? thanks

No.: Pharmacologic diuretics are orders-of-magnitude more powerful than anything naturopathic. If your dr has put you on a water pill, it is to control fluid build up and symptoms. Should discuss concerns with him/her.
