And you can have puffiness of the eyelids for multiple reasons.

Allergies are a big one.

salt content of the cheer film, and even in your body can make some of those changes.

I know for myself, if I have a cheat day and I eat a bunch of greasy, delicious pizza, the next morning I'll probably feel, I can feel that my skin and my face is maybe a little bit more puffy.

Thankfully, that goes away within a few hours.

But that's why a lot of times, even just doing cold compresses, right?

You see people put cucumbers on their eyes.

A lot of that is more have to do with just the cooling temperature.

Doing a cold compress for 10 at max 15 minutes can bring some of that puffiness down.

And that can at least help improve the appearance.

Possibly.

Okay.

I've tried to research this to find any real publications to see if it's really there.

And I couldn't find anything.

But I know from just my own anecdotal experience that if I eat a really high salt diet, and I've done over the last eight years, I've really done a better job.

I know you have too of like thinking about my diet, how that affects me, how my body feels after I eat something.

And so I've noticed if I have a cheat day, that sort of thing can happen.

So your tear film, for example, your tear, like I know some people will say, hey, if I have a, watch a sad movie and I cry at nighttime, the next morning my eyes are super puffy.

So your tears have salt in them.

And because if you ever cried and tasted your tears, they taste salty, right?
