Tea Detoxing

Mary , on November 2, 2016 at 11:37 AM Posted in Fitness and Health 0 25

With the wedding coming up next year and wanting to lose a little extra weight - my friends and I discovered tea detoxing! There's tons of different brands to choose from and I was just wondering if anyone has used these products and if so, what worked for you and what didn't? Did you like the results given?

    Tea = detoxing? = no.

    Tea = healthy, delicious, good for you, possible metabolism boost = yes

    Enjoy your tea but I would steer clear from anything with senna in it as you will only lose poop weight.

    ETA: some people can have long-lasting problems with diarrhea after drinking laxative teas. You have been warned.

    This is why you have a liver and kidneys. Anything that tries to tell you it'll "detoxify" your body is lying to you. Unless it's your liver, listen to that bish.

    Just eat food .... real/healthy food.

    Is this one of the detoxes that is liquid for days? Not healthy.

    There will be many that say detoxes are bs. They may be ... whatever.

    I found one that I love... you eat real food though. I do it once (sometimes twice) a year. It makes me feel good .... so I really don't concern myself with what others think of it.

    If you want to look into it.... Metagenics.

    From a registered dietitian.... don't waste your money. It's total crap. Lose weight the right way- eat healthy and exercise.

    All this will do is starve your body. Your body has a liver and kidneys (I hope), these are natural detoxifiers. All the teas will do is make you pee a lot and the caffeine will make you more alert.

    If you want a sustainable way to lose weight, eat smaller portions, drink less sugary drinks, eat less processed foods, and balance food and exercise.

    Tea detoxes aren't really beneficial. Some genuinely detox you BUT this tea isn't going to help you shed pounds in any way, and whatever small amount of weight you may lose is super temporary and comes back within a week. Skip the tea, they are a huge waste of money.

    Regular tea though is always delicious and good for you!

    Thank you guys for all of the helpful comments! I'm for sure going to skip out on the tea and try to have a more healthy life style and of course drink regular tea because it's delicious Smiley smile

    I actually like Tiny Tea and it does not contain Senna or make you have the poops. It is just a chinese herbal tea to drink and it really helped get rid of my bloating. Your body detoxes and cleanses itself- which is why you have a liver. Green tea, white tea and Oolong tea are also healthy to drink! Nothing magically is going to work- its all about diet and exercise. But I only drink unsweetened tea or water so I love tea!

    Be careful!!!! Using stimulants such as laxatives and *detox teas* will literally make your body DEPENDENT on them. Eventually you won't be able to shit without them!

    Kinda how your body gets immune to antibiotics and then when you are sick with the flu you are fucked cause antibiotics don't work anymore.

    I agree with Laine!

    I used Tiny Tea for a while and it definitely decreased bloating and aided in weight loss. The thing was, though, that it wasn't necessarily the tea that made it happen, but it was the way it regulated my eating and drinking habits.

    You're supposed to drink it 3x a day 30 min before or after meals, so that made me more conscious of how often I was eating, and a little more conscious of what I was eating. Also, it's a diuretic so it made a more thirsty, so I drank more water and in turn felt less hungry. I do recommend it, but only based on the knowledge that the tea itself will reduce bloating, but that's not a cure-all obviously.

    Drink LOTS of water and leafy greens. It helps more than the teas do. You'll have a new bond with the toilet, but at least you'll see your results in the mirror each time. Smiley smile

    No. They're a scam, they make you lose water weight but you'll gain back right after you go off. They're also incredibly unhealthy and can wreak havoc on your body.

    You know what has been helping me lose weight? Like, 6lbs in the last 3-4 weeks?

    Eating real food, eating healthier food, and doing regular exercise.

    Shocking, I know. Who would have thought? >_>

    ETA: On the upside, this post reminded me that I have some yummy jasmine green tea I need to brew when I get home. Mmmm.
