The problem with many weight loss supplement formulas sold today is
that they include diuretics that reduce bloat and pounds through the
elimination of water.
The weight you lose is only water weight. The loss is tem****ary and
doesn't include any fat. Diuretics can promote dangerous dehydration
and cardiac problems. As soon as the body is rehydrated, the weight
returns. Meaningful weight loss requires loss of body fat not water.
One sure way to tell that you are dealing with a weight loss product
that is a diuretic is if it makes outrageous promises, such as "Lose
Ten Pounds a Week" or "Lose Ten Pounds in Three Days."
You can also figure out what products are diuretics by looking at the
ingredients, which according to the FDA must be listed from the most
to the least. One of the biggest culprits is caffeine. Caffeine may be
listed on the box as a main ingredient or it may be concealed in an
ingredient such as green tea.
Most magical weight loss formulas (and especially those that are
marketed as Chinese or miracle weight loss teas) contain herbs that
act as diuretics....
