Tea is a beverage that people often drink in their daily lives, but did you know that tea also has the effect of weight loss? So what are some weight loss teas in daily life? Let's take a look at a few homemade weight loss teas together!
The Weight Loss Principle of Tea
Tea contains aromatic compounds that can dissolve fat and prevent fat accumulation in the body.
Vitamin B1, C, and caffeine can promote gastric juice secretion and aid digestion and fat elimination.
Functional and toxicological experiments have shown that weight loss tea can promote fat metabolism, maintain normal physiological functions, and overcome the disadvantages of other weight loss products that disrupt eating habits, reduce body functions, and induce other diseases.
The tea polyphenols in tea can increase metabolism, have antioxidant and free radical scavenging effects, activate lipase and protein kinase, reduce fat cell accumulation, and achieve weight loss.

Taboos of Weight Loss Tea:
Weight loss teas contain some caffeine, which can promote gastric juice secretion. Therefore, it can easily lead to an increase in gastric acid concentration. For people with poor digestive system, it is better not to drink too much.
During menstruation, due to pelvic congestion, there is often a sense of abdominal pain. Drinking weight loss tea during this period can only promote intestinal peristalsis and may cause slight pain. So it is better not to drink it.
Weight loss tea should not be consumed on an empty stomach, as some ingredients in weight loss tea can combine with proteins in the stomach and cause irritation to the gastrointestinal mucosa.
