Fat is not so easily decomposed.
When it comes to losing weight, it is actually reducing the fat in our body. There is no direct passage to excrete fat in our body, and fat will not be directly excreted from urine and feces. Will not be easily decomposed by lotus leaf tea. Many people will have diarrhea after drinking lotus leaf tea or other substances that are beneficial to defecation. I feel like I've excreted a lot, and even after I've excreted, I feel my stomach is much smaller and my weight has dropped, so I think I've lost weight. But in fact, most of the feces and water in the intestines are discharged, not fat at all. Once you return to a normal diet, your weight will rise immediately.
How to metabolize fat?
Fat is actually the unused energy stored in our body, and fat is also called triglyceride. Its metabolic pathway in our body is to become carbon dioxide and water (suppose a person loses 65,438+00 kilograms of fat, of which 8.4 kilograms will become carbon dioxide and the remaining 65,438+0.6 kilograms will become water, that is, 84% will become carbon dioxide and 65,438+06% will become water) and then release energy to be used by the human body. As I said just now, there is no direct passage to excrete fat in the human body, and fat cannot be excreted through feces and urine. Therefore, if you want to lose fat, you can only turn fat into carbon dioxide and excrete it from your lungs. How do you use your lungs? It's no use sitting there breathing hard. Only exercise. Through exercise, the body can use fat to convert into carbon dioxide and water to release energy. This process is the king of fat loss.

Hello, I'm glad to answer this question for you. I'm Peng Xie, Sepp's fitness instructor.
Drinking lotus leaf water can reduce weight, and lotus leaf water can reduce liver fire and facilitate urination. In addition, lotus leaf water has certain fiber, which can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and help expel toxins. It can also improve basal metabolism. Despite these effects, if you really want to lose weight, you can only play an auxiliary role. The key is to look at the basic diet and training arrangements.
If you want to lose weight, you should control the total calorie intake, and the maximum calorie intake per kilogram of body weight is 30 kilocalories, which can be calculated by the target weight. For example, a man weighs 80 kilograms and wants to lose weight. The goal is 70 kilograms. His total intake is 70 kg *30 kcal =2 100 kcal. Then put 2 100 calories to distribute carbohydrate protein and fat in proportion. At the same time, adopt the principle of eating less and eating more meals. Try to eat food with slow absorption and strong satiety, which can reduce appetite and increase basal metabolism.
Carbohydrate can be corn, oats, sweet potatoes, apples and other foods. Protein can choose meat, eggs and milk. You can choose more vegetable fats, such as nuts. Through reasonable diet and reasonable exercise, we can achieve the goal of losing weight.
I remember when I was in high school, the monitor of our class was a meatball. He uses that 1000ml mug to pick up a cup of boiled water every day, and something is soaked in it. I asked him what it was made of, and he told me it was lotus leaf and drank it to lose weight.
So, can you really lose weight by drinking lotus leaf tea?
Lotus leaf tea does have a certain weight loss effect.
Lotus leaf has been included in the homologous list of medicine and food in China since 199 1. In addition to carbohydrates and crude protein, lotus leaves also contain a variety of alkaloids, flavonoids, cellulose, vitamins and other chemical components.
A large number of experimental studies have proved that lotus leaf alkaloids can significantly reduce the Lee's index (an index reflecting the growth of obesity), inhibit the weight gain of rats, and reduce the content of blood lipids and body fat, with obvious weight loss effect, and no side effects such as diarrhea and loss of appetite.
Pancreatic lipase can decompose fat in food into glycerol and fatty acids, which are absorbed by human body and lead to obesity. Studies have shown that flavonoids contained in lotus leaves can inhibit the activity of pancreatic lipase, thus reducing the body's absorption of fat in food and achieving the purpose of losing weight. In addition, alkaloids and polyphenols in lotus leaves can also inhibit lipase activity.
Lotus leaves can not only lose weight, but also have the following effects:
Antioxidant and hypolipidemic effects
Lotus leaf also contains proanthocyanidins, which has antioxidant effect, can reduce the cholesterol content in blood to a certain extent, and has the effect of lowering blood lipid.
Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory
Experiments show that flavonoids in lotus leaf can significantly inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and some toothpaste ingredients are added with lotus leaf extract to treat gingivitis. All these indicate that lotus leaf has certain antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects and is the source of natural antibacterial raw materials.
The slimming effect of lotus leaves is also recorded in ancient books:
Lotus leaf can not only make tea, but also make lotus leaf sauce, boiled lotus leaf porridge, cold lotus leaf, lotus leaf chicken, lotus leaf eight-treasure rice and steamed meat with lotus leaf powder. Lotus leaf can also be mixed with other foods such as jasmine, hawthorn, medlar, rose, etc. to make compound lotus leaf tea.
When drinking lotus leaf tea, the effect of fasting strong tea is obvious, and lotus leaf also has diuretic effect, so it still has a certain effect on edema and obesity.
Anyone who says it works without a dose is a hooligan. Therefore, while drinking lotus leaf tea, we should pay attention to more exercise, less oil and less salt. Pregnant women and menstrual patients should use it with caution.
First of all, we should make clear the principle of losing weight: energy intake consumes energy and produces energy difference, and then use the fat stored in the body to finally achieve the effect of losing weight.

It is ok to make tea with lotus leaves, but the effect is slow. My sister drinks two cups every morning and evening. She seldom gets up early to exercise during the day, but she eats less at night, or loses 8 pounds a month by eating fruit. Now she says that drinking lotus leaf tea often will make her stomach look smaller and full easily. Now she continues to insist.
Can't reduce! I've been drinking for almost a year! There is no other way to lose weight. I have tried all kinds of diet pills and cupping to lose weight. I only exercise, such as jogging for fifty or sixty minutes every day! Or walk for an hour! And stick to it every day. Through this exercise, I lost 48 pounds a year. There is no shortcut to losing weight. I really need to shut up and take my legs!
After drinking more than one cup, I haven't felt the effect yet. I have also read the propaganda that drinking tea often can cool blood and reduce fire.
The efficacy also includes: clearing away heat, relieving summer heat, reducing blood fat, calming the nerves and relaxing bowels.
Not everyone can use it, for example, people with deficiency of spleen and stomach are not suitable.
It's summer. I usually drink some green tea in the morning and lotus leaf tea in the afternoon.
I have soaked lotus leaves and hawthorn in clear water for three years, and I have not lost weight obviously, but I have controlled my weight. Because I have been going to work every day for five years, I have been walking at a brisk pace (rain or shine), consuming a lot of energy every day, having a good appetite and a great figure. I think drinking lotus leaf water is still useful!
It's no use. I have tried all the lotus leaves, hawthorn and cassia seeds specially bought. They've been drinking for half a year, and it's useless. Don't believe these advertisements any more, they are all lies. To put it bluntly, it is selling things. As for whether it is useful or not, neither the merchants nor the media will be responsible for you.
