Yay! British tapwater for me!
I don't understand the causes of water retention either. I've read that same idea, drink lots to avoid retention, then I read don't drink 2 hrs before bed or you'll get puffy eyes. Avoiding salt is probably good, but I love mixed nuts too much.
I read that eating too many sweets makes you retain water. I cut down on sweets and I think I'm less bloated. Getting rid of lactose helped too.
