Total Tea Gentle Detox tastes great and is fast-acting. Initially, you may have to go to the washroom frequently as the tea first cleanses the colon. After 2-3 days, bloating and any discomfort will disappear. You will also start to notice an improvement in your energy levels and productivity. Soon after, you will see visible changes in your appearance, get a flat tummy, and be highly motivated to eat and live healthily.
One thing to watch out for in detox teas, though, is a common ingredient-and herbal laxative-senna. "One part of detoxing is the cleansing of the intestines, and senna aids this process," he explains. While it can be helpful as a night-time drink short-term, taking senna for too long can cause vomiting, diarrhea, electrolyte imbalance, and dehydration. If you feel stopped up, incorporate a senna tea for a few nights (Villacorta recommends Traditional Medicinals Organic Smooth Move). But stick to senna-free varieties for your habitual cup.
Samantha, yes absolutely! We don’t ever recommend “starve yourself” detoxes. There is a much healthier way to achieve great results than depriving your body of nutrients for a few days. I would recommend sticking to lighter foods though. You can detox from specific things such as sugar and carbs or you can try a smoothie/juice detox. Just try to fill up on salads and veggies rather than heavier stuff like meats during a detox. I hope that helps!

These are honest—and most importantly non-GM—ingredients. These pure and flavorful extracts contribute to the great taste and function of Traditional Medicinals EveryDay Detox tea. With detox tea, it is sometimes hard to find a drink that is both good and good for you. With these bags, you are guaranteed to have the perfect cup with a lot of great flavors every time.
