There is little to suggest that these teas will offer any benefit in the long term. Indeed, the ‘bloated’ sensation that they ‘fix’ is simply because they’re getting rid of water, which can easily leave you dehydrated. Certainly, the approach isn’t going to help with actual weight loss.

That’s very true. The teas are promoted as being good for weight loss, yet the people that use them don’t really need to lose weight in the first place. I’ve seen that with some diets too – where many of the reviews come from people who only had a few pounds to lose.

It’s even easy to see how this tea could contribute to weight gain, rather than loss. After all, if you’re trying to lose weight, disrupting your sleep is one of the worst things that you can do.

Flat Tummy Tea sounds like a name for someone thought would be marketable. But to me it sounds gimmicky.

Thanks for your great review on this tea as you mention who wants to drink a cleansing tea at night. I need to get all the sleep I can at night to be ready for the next day. Not running to the toilet all night long.
