Which item is listed as a general home remedy for edema?

• A. CCF tea
• B. Gargled salt water
• C. Garlic herbal tonic
• D. Ice-cold water

Answer: (A)

Edema is swelling from excess fluid buildup in the body's tissues, and certain simple home measures are commonly taught to help reduce that fluid load. A tea labeled as CCF tea is described in many general home-remedy resources as a straightforward, everyday remedy to support fluid balance and mild diuresis, which is why it’s considered the best-fitting choice for a general approach to edema in this context.

Gargled salt water is intended for local oral or throat care and doesn’t address systemic fluid retention. A garlic herbal tonic might have cardiovascular health associations, but it isn’t typically framed as a standard general remedy for edema. Ice-cold water isn’t used to treat edema and can affect circulation in ways that don’t relieve swelling.
