As for the herbal tea on the market that claims to lose weight, it is actually diuretic and laxative. You will have diarrhea after drinking it. Although you can lose weight, you will only lose water. When the body is replenished with water, it will return to its original pounds. So although it has the effect of losing weight, it can't lose weight. In addition, because drinking strong tea will reduce the body's absorption of iron, it is not suitable for growing teenagers or pregnant women to drink more.
In short, the most effective way to lose weight, whether from Chinese medicine or western medicine, should start with a balanced diet, with normal eating habits and persistent health exercise, no matter how difficult the weight loss goal is, there will always be a "successful day."

And if you lose weight by diarrhea for a long time, it will not only cure the symptoms but also affect your health.
