Fluid retention under eyes

[JDD]

Any ideas on what might cause fluid retention in the bottom eyelid like in the pic attached (not me)?

Not you? But do you have the same?

I posted pictures one month ago and nobody seemed to know...

In my case it is in the morning when I get up, then disappear. I had this before, when I started to have stronger reactions to gluten. Now I am gluten free and can relate it to 2 guesses: allergic reaction and lymphatic system.

Location is not the same. For me it is upper lid - near nose - and much lower under the eye. like when you have circles after a bad night of almost no sleep.

yeah not me but same idea. Doubt it's gluten, I've done long stretches gluten free and still had them. I would guess it's some sort of mineral imbalance which is causing fluid retention. I'd be interested to hear if any of the extended fast people notice any improvement with that sort of fluid retention.

You try upping your dose of magnesium or magnesium chloride?

That was indeed better after fasting, and it was only juice fast 1 week and almost fast with the whole grated veggies 1 week.

You did not say if you had it all the time or also partial.

My hair test indicates to up my sodium.
