Every year after the Christmas binges or when summer approaches, the assault on gyms and herbalists begins on time. When time is running out and the lost line needs to be recovered quickly, all means seem legitimate. Many people thus resort to odd "last minute" diets, fasting or some products from the colorful world of herbs and supplements.
Often people, rather than relying on chemicals, prefer to resort to natural products such as slimming or purifying herbal teas. Some herbal supplements are portrayed as miracle products, advertising properties that don't always come true. The idea of the slimming and purifying herbal tea certainly responds to the commercial interests of those who produce it, but it does not always satisfy the wishes of those who buy it.
Herbal teas are usually composed of herbs rich in fiber, with a diuretic and laxative effect. Plants with purifying properties are quite common and well known in popular tradition:
dandelion, artichoke, pilosella, lespedeza, ottosifon, mallow, passionflower, elderberry.
These herbs taken in the form of slimming herbal tea have a mild purifying and diuretic effect. These characteristics would increase considerably if concentrated extracts were used. Precisely because the slimming herbal teas are more diluted, although they are less effective, they present a lower risk of side effects and can therefore be consumed with some freedom.
Weight loss favors the oxidation of lipid stocks by releasing the toxins they contain into the circulation. This process stimulates the body to store as much fat as possible again (in order to protect itself from the increase of toxins).
Herbal teas rich in water and substances with a diuretic and purifying effect can therefore have a certain effectiveness in favoring the elimination of toxic substances and at the same time promoting weight loss. The fibers contained in them also tend to stimulate the sense of satiety and reduce the " intestinal absorption of fats and toxins.
Other plants such as rhodiola and griffonia simplicifolia, on the other hand, have an effect on the nervous modulation of the sense of hunger. The iodine contained in the algae favors the increase of the basal metabolism and therefore has a potential beneficial effect on weight loss.
However, slimming herbal teas must not replace the few, but good eating habits necessary to promote weight loss. See: food tips.
