Jockeys often use diuretics to rapidly lose weight before races, as they help eliminate excess water from the body. This allows them to meet specific weight requirements for their mounts without losing significant muscle mass. However, the use of diuretics can pose serious health risks, including dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Additionally, their use is regulated in many jurisdictions to ensure fair competition and the well-being of the athletes.
