Why does the face look puffy in the morning?
The biggest cause of morning puffiness is fluid retention. Consuming too much salt or processed food causes water accumulation in the body. Delhi-based nutritionist Lavneet Batra told on her Instagram that when you consume more sodium than required, the body starts retaining water. Due to which swelling appears on the face. Apart from this, hormonal changes, especially around periods, can cause swelling. Estrogen and progesterone hormones affect the fluid balance in the body, which can cause swelling in the face and around the eyes. Apart from this, not drinking enough water before sleeping is also a reason. According to Batra, in case of dehydration, the body starts retaining fluid overnight.

Stress is also a cause of puffiness
Batra also said that stress and inflammation can increase morning puffiness. Excess sugar, junk food and stress slow down the process of expelling fluid from the body. He told, and said that today’s lifestyle can easily disturb the natural rhythm of the body.
