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.
Let me just start by saying this was the best choice I have made when trying to buy a product that lives up to the hype. The taste is super tasty no sugar needed. This really detoxed my system entirely, mind you normally I drink a lot of water during the day which is required in order to get better results. I also eat clean, which helps with trying to lose the pounds after I have given birth. I was stuck at a weight of 152 and even after I work out 4-5 times a week, I was getting no where. After drinking this tea for about a week I noticed this changed my hormone levels and removed the toxins in my system, thus helped getting me out of the plateau I was in and lost 3.5 pounds. I was stoked!! I knew it was because of this tea! I have my cup of tea in the morning after my workouts and drink water. Then I reuse the same tea bag and drink it before I go to bed. I rarely give reviews if ever. But thought this was worth one. Hope this helps anyone who is thinking of buying it.
The nettle tea made from stinging nettle leaves helps the body, especially the kidney and liver in eliminating the toxins.

So if you are a patient of any of these problems, you should not mind trying nettle tea after consulting your doctor.
Note: Detox teas aren’t regulated by the FDA and may contain ingredients or additives that may be detrimental to your health in the long run. Excessive consumption of detox teas may lead to bloating, dehydration, diarrhea, electrolyte imbalance, gas, and nausea. Hence, it is important to consult a dietitian before going for detox teas, especially if you want to lose weight.
There is also some research done on chamomile that suggests it may help lower blood sugar levels and aid in digestion health. Other studies have also shown that antioxidants when consuming chamomile play a significant role in the prevention of stress-related chronic diseases. The findings from the study also did indicate that chamomile boosts your immune system because of the free-radicals in the antioxidants.
There may be a lot of impressive results, reviews, and promising claims that Iaso tea really works and there may even some before and after pictures to really prove it to their customers. However, you can never know for sure if these reviews are entirely legitimate, and if the product really works for weight loss. As we have already gone over above, the Iaso Tea’s hefty claim of losing five pounds in five days guaranteed is just to good to be true. Most likely, any instant weight loss that is seen with the tea is the result of water weight loss and no actual body mass being lost.
Holy Thistle. Holy thistle is known to detoxify the liver, treat hormone balance, and help with arthritis. This ingredient has been used in traditional medicine for over 2000 years to treat a wide array of medical issues. The detoxifying claims are made since Holy thistle contains Silymarin, which is a flavonoid that is known to help protect the liver.
