I bought this tea because of the great reviews & I was like looking for something to help with a bloating feeling I’d been having for weeks! I followed the directions & made sure to drink a glass of water before the tea every morning. I feel great! The bloating feeling is gone and I have actually been able to cut my coffee with a lot of cream out of my morning routine! I’ll be buying more for sure!
The reason why laxatives and diuretics can be seen as unfavorable is that it can result in dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, diarrhea, and reliance on laxatives to open your bowels. These symptoms can result in short term weight loss, but only due to losing water weight and none from real fat loss. However, this tea does explicitly not promote that it works to lose weight only in the short term, but that it functions over time.
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!

I was hoping for a gentle detox to help me feel lighter and less bloated, but this didn't work out for me as it seems to have for others. Could be that I wasn't as bloated as I thought? I only needed to lose a few pounds, maybe this is better for someone who really needs the help? There was a coupon in the bag for a free bag in exchange for a review, which always makes me a bit skeptical of a lot of glowing reviews, maybe this was one of those situations.
There are a few options on what you can buy and this is great because can get a detox program that will work best for you. You can view the complete selection at the official website shop here. If you are specifically looking for weight loss I would recommend the Ultimate package that includes both the tea and supplements ($80.00). If you just want a cleanse and detox the body I would pick the tea option without the supplements ($55.00).
Dandelion leaf stimulates more urine production, causing excess fluid to leave your body tissues. In this way, it can help you lose water weight and reduce bloating. However, this ingredient may also have a light laxative effect, meaning that it will also increase bowel movements. It may have potential side effects including diarrhea, heartburn and stomach inflammation.l
"Specific detox teas offer added benefits in the additional ingredients," says Villacorta. Herbs like lemongrass, ginger, dandelion, and milk thistle all contain properties said to support a healthy liver, one of those organs in charge of your natural detoxifying process. Ginger has also been proven to alleviate oxidative stress within the liver, which indirectly helps the organ perform its cleaning task more efficiently, he says.
But there is a need for additional research to prove that they are able to eliminate toxins from your body. Because of this, we like to concentrate on the “getting healthy and feeling healthy” aspects of detox tea, and don’t count on them only to remove toxins. If they do, great, but what we want here are herbs that help boost metabolism, give you energy and clear up your skin. Any detox cleanse effects are just a bonus.
