TEA-TOXING...What is it?

CAUTION: there’s a new diet fad taking over! it’s called the Teatox Diet and it’s becoming insanely popular through social media sites. 

WHAT IS TEATOXING?

     Teatoxing is virtually a weight loss program dedicated to help you lose weight, improve your mood, skin, and other stuff various things brands claim they do, by including this tea in your daily diet. First off, the main ingredients in the popular tea is Senna, which is a natural laxative, and other forms of diuretics. Diuretics temporarily relieve the system of any bloating from water, flushing out some excess weight. This weight doesn’t stay off for long and is typically returned upon the first few meals you eat after taking a diuretic. Taking laxatives to lose weight depletes the body of nutrients that it needs. If you are not already worried, this is literally stripping your body from the things it needs to function at its optimum state. (this is a no-no)
     Many customers of these ‘teatoxes’ base their decision to purchase off of the Instagram accounts the tea companies have posting success stories about women who lost 10 pounds in two weeks with just drinking this tea alone. Many can agree, a diet that changes your body that quickly without weight training cannot be healthy for you. It may work, but chances are the results won’t last long, and you will end up disappointed. We are human, and we too gave in to see what the fuss was about and if indeed this really worked, here is what happened to not just myself, but my other sister as well.

OUR EXPERIENCE WITH ONE OF THESE TEATOXES

     We tried out two different teatox brands and enjoyed the taste of both. We surprisingly had the same experience with both teas. As far as the taste, It was not bad for being a detox tea: it was a little bitter and earthy but with some honey, it tastes pretty good.

How we felt directly after drinking the tea:
-Great...we smiled and congratulated each other on discovering skinny-in-a-cup (haha)
-Had a little more energy.
-Felt a little dehydrated, but happy.

After a few hours of taking the tea:
-Rushing to the restroom more often (both of us)
-One of us felt nauseous and continued to feel this way the whole day, and had a long headache. (tried it once again the next day and had the same experience)
-One felt fine, drank it for a week, felt lighter but from using the restroom so often. I had stomach cramps every so often but it didn't last very long, maybe on and off for about 30min each time. After that, i began to feel nauseous when i drank it, very fatigued, and very dehydrated. 
-We discontinued the teas after having the same reaction both times with each tea.

**We took the teas as directed and ate meals between too. We kept hydrated with water and electrolyte based drinks like BCAAS & Gatorade. Still felt dehydrated and drained.

WHAT WORKED:
About a month later we tried a different, more natural tea, that does not use laxative ingredients. The tea we tried is called NURTURE TEA (you can click the link to check them out) We also found this company through Instagram, their instagram name is called @1NurtureTea . 

We started this detox pack as soon as we recieved it. Right away we noticed the difference between this and the other brands, quality ingredients and no harsh chemicals. This detox pack includes: A super fiber package (YES REAL FIBER, tastes amazing and fiber should be a staple to your every day diet) An AWAKE tea blend to help your digestive tract get moving and give you the energy to begin your day, a Detox blend to help clean and filter out all the toxic material in your system. The detox blend helps reduce and eliminate gas and bloating and detoxes your liver and kidneys which promotes weight loss. They even include a bottle with your order which is great because you have something to carry your tea with you when you are out and about. The BEST part if it all is that it is affordable and it actually works...and WELL! Here is how you should use your Nuture tea correctly for the best results:

For the Detox  & Awake Tea blends & Super Fiber Powder

• Begin by drinking your Super Fiber Powder the night before you start your Detox Program, Drink every other night until finished.

• Pour 16-20 Oz of slightly boiling water over 1 Detox Tea Blend tea bag & 2 Tblsp of Awake Tea Blend loose leaf, in a mug. Allow tea to steep for 5 Minutes.

• Feel free to squeeze a fresh lemon inside the tea.

• Drink first thing before breakfast & Lunch.

• You can drink the Tea Blends hot or cold.

For best results, it is important that once you have begun Nurture Tea Co. Super Detox Program you complete it.

• Allowing Tea to steep for longer and not letting water over boil will allow the tea blend to be more effective.

• Drink 8-10 Glasses of water daily.

• Sleep 8-10 hrs. Fiber is more effective when your body is relaxed & rested

• Exercise 3-4 times a week for at least 15mins, (Run, Walk, Bike, Swim, Hike, Dance etc.)

• Eat healthy. Salads, Smoothies, Soups, Fruits & Vegetables

We just restocked our pack and got a LUNA blend for night time use and to help get a more comfortable sleep and Garden Blend. We will keep you updated on how these taste and work. We highly recommend going with a teatox blend that is natural and healthy for your digestive system, harsh chemicals and overuse of laxative base ingredients will catch up to you.
