Can I lose weight with slimming tea?
There are many teas made in India that contain laxatives like
senokot or senna. Other teas contain herbs which act as laxatives. When you
drink this tea, you develop severe watery diarrhea. All you lose is the water
and become dehydrated. As soon as the tea is stopped, the water is regained. Large
loses of body fluids also result in loss of electrolytes. Many people use
slimming tea to lose weight but most end up in the emergency room with severe
dehydration.
Taking laxatives for weight loss is not a novel idea and
neither do ethical doctors recommend it. The best advice: this is not something
you want to try to lose weight- slimming tea is for foolish people who have a
low IQ and desperate need for affection.
