Excess weight is a pressing problem for many people. To get rid of it, a variety of methods are used.
One of them is drinking special teas for weight loss.
Endocrinologist and nutritionist Anna Krivosheeva shared her opinion on this matter.
In most cases, slimming teas contain ingredients that have a diuretic and laxative effect.
Thanks to this, a person can notice a decrease in weight.
However, in this case, fluid is removed from the body, and fat deposits remain in place.
As a rule, the diet of a modern person does not contain enough water, but it is necessary for metabolic processes.
Using tea for weight loss leads to the elimination of fluid, which the body does not receive enough of anyway, so it tries to save it for use in metabolism.
As a result, dehydration occurs, and important microelements, such as potassium and magnesium, are lost along with water. As a result, metabolic processes slow down.
Well, there is one more important thing that should be kept in mind by everyone who is thinking about losing weight with the help of tea: such a drink can cause allergic reactions, and intolerance to the plant components of tea is also possible.
