Diuretic are essentially any substance that leads to a large amount of fluid to expelled from the body. Diuretics are used today in many places, of which not all are good ways. Lasiks, which is a common medication for patient's with CHF (congestive heart failure) and who suffer edema (fluid buildup), is actually a diuretic, used to expel this fluid, however they are often told get plenty of electrolytes, due to the fact that it also expels minerals and vitamin from the body.
