    When you dry out in bodybuilding terms is different then just water loss. It's usually also called contest prep. Meaning you look harder, your arms and muscles look more defined and dried out. Some of it is water loss but it's just a method to looking as cut as possible. You will actually drink more water when you first start drying out for a competition, you will avoid sodium and some will cycle potassium. Tuna is just a healthy low cal food that works with the drying out process. Nothing to do with actually losing water beyond it's not high in sodium, cals or carbs.

    Aromatase Inhibitors like Erase/Erase Pro are also said to have a drying effect.

    It makes alot of sense to me! I eat the low sodium tuna the night before I weigh in because I tend to retain water something awful and you still get lots of good protein. Oh the joys of being a woman...

    You can get the same benefit from a steak or fresh chicken.
