Bootea Teatox is a 28-day ‘teatox’ combining a daytime and a night-time tea. It claims to help you lose weight and burn fat, by increasing their metabolic rate and suppressing their appetite. It also promises to detox the body, thus improving the skin and making people “feel good about themselves”.
We take a look at Bootea Teatox to find out whether it is worth trying, or if it is just a cleverly marketed diet supplement that comes with a good name and image.
Pros
Cons
The Daytime Detox contains many ingredients that will cause you to urinate more frequently, so although it may cause you to lose water weight it is unlikely to do anything else.
There is no reason why daytime tea should reduce your appetite, and the energy boosting qualities will probably not exceed those you get from drinking an ordinary cup of tea or coffee.
Green tea is good for health but has not been proven to promote weight loss. Some of the other ingredients may also cause side effects.
The Bedtime Cleanse is essentially a laxative combined with a diuretic. It seems counter-intuitive to go to bed after taking a laxative, and you may be up in the night to visit the bathroom.
Bootea Teatox has a whole range of potential side effects including nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain.
On the official Bootea website, the teatox packages are priced as follows:
Bootea is also available in high street stores such as Boots, Holland & Barrett, and Superdrug.
Bootea Teatox comes in the form of two types of tea – the Daytime Detox and the Bedtime Cleanse. The aim is that you should drink a cup of each tea over a two-week period or a month and it will help you lose weight and detoxify your system.
Bootea Teatox also comes with a free diet plan you can follow for added results.
Bootea is a UK based company (no other details are supplied though) that, according to the advertising, specializes in 100% natural health supplements. The range comprises of the two teas, which you buy as a complete package, but they are available to buy individually as well.
Bootea Daytime Cleanse is a loose tea, which you drink in the morning and contains stimulant yerba mate, and Bedtime Cleanse described as a colon cleanse comes in tea bag form, is stimulant free, and should be taken just before bedtime.
According to the company, the daytime tea will suppress your appetite and give you energy.
The Bedtime Cleanse said to remove toxins contains laxative Senna and will ensure you open your bowels 8 hours after taking. This sounds alarming and makes you wonder what will happen if you happen to be a heavy sleeper and sleep in longer than 8 hours! You take the Bedtime Cleanse every other night.
As well as the tea, the website offers a free diet plan, which you can download as a PDF file, but there is no reason why you should use this plan over any other diet regime.
You are advised to avoid meat products while you are on your detox but apart from this, it is hard to see what special significance the diet plan has for detoxing or for taking with the tea.
It looks a fairly ordinary low-calorie diet plan to us, and you will probably lose weight if you follow it to the letter. Many detoxes advise you to avoid tea, coffee, and alcohol, but this is not mentioned in the product information.
The Bootea Teatox advertising is slick and professional and has a cutting edge appeal. The name itself – Bootea, a play on words around the word booty – meaning butt, ass, specifically female posterior – as defined by the urban dictionary, and the website features an image of the sort of backside that many women would love to have!
Pour a cup of boiling water over the tea, let it brew for 3-5 minutes, then drink. The frequency and timing of Bootea Teatox will depend upon the package, with different ones including daytime blends, nighttime blends, or both.
The company is fully engaged with social media, with a twitter account, a Facebook page, and an Instagram account. All of which you can follow to see images, as well as uploading your own.
The Instagram account seems to have backfired a bit for Bootea, as many of the comments on the Instagram page are along the lines of customers not having received their Bootea packages in the post.
Shockingly, the company have entered into a dialogue on this public forum and have included customer’s confidential PayPal account information for the world to see. There also is an issue of non-delivery, because many customers do not appear to have received the orders they have paid for.
Bootea Teatox supposedly provides a method for detoxing and this in itself is questionable. According to medical opinion, detoxing and the notion of removing so-called toxins from the body is unnecessary.
Detoxification is a cornerstone of many alternative medicinal practices but scientists have dismissed this practice.
Respected UK medical charity Sense about Science concluded that,
‘detox’, as used in product marketing, is a myth and worryingly many of the claims about how the body works were wrong and in some cases the suggested remedies were potentially dangerous.

The Bootea advertising claims to “get you the figure you want with an intense mix of natural ingredients” and claims five key benefits:
The advertising also claims,
At Bootea, we like to encourage each and every person to feel good about themselves. Today’s magazines & media have distorted what beauty is and created an impossible stereotype.
Despite this worthy statement, the advertisers have done exactly what they have criticized today’s media for doing, and have used impossible stereotype image themselves for their advertising.
Most of us could drink all the detox tea in the world and not get a body like the one used on the Bootea advertising.
Unlikely.
Bootea Teatox is touted as a detox product, but there is no medical reason why you should need to detox; your liver and kidneys can carry out this process without any additional help.
The teas mainly have a laxative and diuretic effect and although this may help you lose some weight initially, it is not healthy and not recommended for health.
Bootea Teatox does not look as safe as drinking ordinary green tea and will probably not help you get the body you have always dreamed of.

Bootea Teatox is a range of two types of tea. You drink one cup of Daytime Detox in the morning and then a cup of Bedtime Cleanse every other night before bedtime. One tea is supposed to perk you up, help you burn fat and lose weight. The other is described as a colon cleanser and is essentially a laxative.
Daytime Detox contains the following ingredients:
The Bedtime Cleanse does not contain stimulants but will have a laxative effect. Contents include:
Bootea Teatox has a whole range of potential side effects.
The American Herbal Association has recommended that products containing Senna leaves should come with a health warning. It is a laxative, so you can expect sudden and unpredictable bowel movements especially at first.
The teas have a diuretic effect so can cause dehydration. Hawthorn can cause interactions with other prescription medicines. Ginseng can cause a range of side effects, including high blood pressure and low blood pressure.
Bootea Teatox can interact with contraceptive pills and you are advised to use condoms while taking the teas. Taking laxatives is not recommended and can cause your body to become dependent on them according to the NHS. Source
Bootea Teatox is only available from the product website so there are no independent customer reviews available. However, there appears to be a problem with shipping delays and many customers have been kept waiting according to the company’s Instagram page.
No money back guarantee is on offer.
Bootea Teatox is available from the official Bootea website, and it is also available in high street stores such as Boots, Holland & Barrett, and Superdrug.
Shipping is free to UK addresses when spending over £50, but costs £3.99 otherwise. Prices to Europe, the US, and elsewhere in the world vary, but are not what we would consider being cheap for a few teabags.
Bootea Teatox benefits from some powerful advertising and a lively social media presence, and the teas look stylish, healthy, and natural. However, the ingredients are questionable and can cause a wide range of unpleasant side effects. Added to this, if you take oral contraception it will not work and if you take other prescription medicine, it may interact.
In addition, many customers have been left waiting for their products and the customer service team have given confidential customer PayPal information out on their Instagram page. All of this, in addition to the medical advice warning about detoxing in general, leads us to only one conclusion and that is to reject Bootea Teatox.
Daytime Detox: Oolong, maté, ginger root, fennel seed, lemongrass, dandelion leaves, ginseng, gotu kola, and nettle leaves.
Bedtime Cleanse: Senna leaves, peppermint, fenugreek seeds, liquorice root, burdock, hawthorn leaves, valerian, and psyllium seeds.

Started off drinking one in the morning had pure head ache by afternoon. Went to bed felt abit ill. Then next day never drank one give it a miss next morning had another one then again headache same day and felt ill day after . Good job I never used recommend dose . Next time going to drink half then half the next day
I used Bootea to help kick-start my detox. I felt much more cleansed after using it and it allowed me to detox my digestive system before starting my training at the gym and eating healthily. I now eat a balanced diet, train and have recently added supplements into my routine to help support my diet and training. I’ve been using protein and BCAAs. I use the Breakfast Whey in the mornings and Her Whey after the gym from Her Protein and both have been really good!
This will be my third time using Bootea and I love it.
Quite sad about all the negative reviews because not every product will work for every person. We are all different.
The first time I used Bootea was when I was at Uni, I went to the gym everyday but also would drink a lot of alcohol and my diet was mainly McDonlads. Definitely think the gym everyday helped however in 14 days I lost just under a stone in weight.
My second attempt I had gone up to a size 14 and was very uncomfortable in my body. I bought the 14 day detox but kept on with my usual takeaway and didn’t exercise at all this time. I was just plain lazy to be honest. Even without trying I lost 1 stone 2lbs and dropped back to a size 12.
This will be my third time. I am now at 13 stone 12lbs and joined slimming world. I have been eating healthy and exercising as much as possible and just going to use this as a booster to aid my weight loss.
I never suffered from the agonising pain others have mentioned however I did need to go to the loo more often but not desperately. I was still able to have a normal life and I have IBS so if it was bad it should have made my IBS worse.
I wouldn’t say the taste was amazing however I much prefer very sweet, fruity teas although it did not put me off. It was still very enjoyable and most of all it does work.
This time I have purchased from H&B. £19.99 for 14 days and another one for 1p in their penny sale.
Don’t be put off by the bad experiences.
Can you guys review the ASAPSKINNY teatox?
It works for me I love it!!
My brother and i tried the bootea. 14 days, laxative free. We are both over weight and didnt hold out much hope of it working. He ate better and only exercised a little. Sadly i did not exercise at all and my eating was only slightly better but still quite bad. To our utter shock, we both lost 8lbs each. it worked for us. Also less bloating for both of us. I shall be starting the 28 day bootea with laxatives this time, i do wonder if there will be any side effects. Also i shall be exercising and eating right this time. Then i can see what the results are.
I’ve used Flat Tummy Tea and had great results, but you have to buy both the morning and evening box together. I saw you can buy just the Bootea evening drink, so I decided to buy a box of it to see if there’s any difference.
I will not be finishing my Bootea box and will be going back to Flat Tummy Tea. Bootea has given me nausea, cramps, needing to go to the bathroom urgently and diarrhoea, and I don’t leave the teabag in that long (I wondered if the first time this happened, if it was because the tea was too strong). I’m sure this product may work for other people, but it’s ingredients don’t agree with me. If you’re having trouble with Bootea, you may find Flat Tummy Tea better.
I have been drinking the teas for a nearly a week now. I have had no adverse side effects and no urgency for the toilet, although definitely more regular. I dont seem yo have lost any weight, but my skin is glowing and as others have said feel less bloated, which to be honest is why i decided to try the Boo Tea.
The reason why some of you are getting the results you have and for the others who are having problems is because some people are allergic to the leaf senna which is the ingredient for the bedtime tea. For most people, senna is great because they don’t have allergic reactions. And another reason maybe you guys aren’t exercising while taking this as well, you can’t just take a diet tea like this and not exercise and expect to lose 10 pounds. It’s not accurate or smart. I recommend you check if you’re allergic to senna before taking this or else you will have allergic reactions such as nauseos, diarrhea, vomiting, etc.
A waste of £20 in my opinion, have not had the laxative effect once and like other people are saying just have stomach pains, bloating and gas! But perhaps it just has different effects on different people. I for one will not be buying it again and will be sticking to normal green tea which costs £1 a box instead!
i have been drinking bootea for 16 months i love it no side effects feel less bloated and gives me energy
I’ve been taking bootea for 6 weeks and now I have stopped taking it..It doesn’t work..its just makes you use the toilet frequently no weight loss whatsoever it’s just a hype. ..not worth it…
I’m in my second time using bootea, the first time I used it I only lost 2lbs but I didn’t excersise and didn’t stick to any form of diet plan, but now I’m really serious about trying, I’m on day 7 and so far I’ve lost 5lbs, I eat fruit and yoghurt, or fruit and fibre cereal or toast for breakfast, then salad or soup for lunch and a high protein meal for dinner and I go to the gym twice a week and excersise for an hour each time, I also drink a lot of water and two or three cups of green tea a day. It DOES work, I haven’t noticed any changes in my skin and the laxative effect hasn’t been a problem at all, I think you need to be really going for it to see the effects but it’s probably dependent on your metabolism and body types etc, you have to remember everyone’s body is different so not everyone will see the same effects. I have the 14 day teatox from Holland and barret and for £19.99 it seems worth a try.
I think it’s your diet and exercise that’s worked- not the tea!
I was looking to shift about 5-7 pounds of weight ahead of my holiday and bought Bootea from a high street store. After 2 weeks and no changes to my healthy lifestyle (good diet and exercise) I had gained 4 pounds in weight, didn’t feel particularly detox-ed and definitely didn’t experience any of the “cleansing” effect – if anything it had the opposite effect (sorry, if too much detail). I stopped drinking the teas and within 10 days the weight came back off – still waiting for “other things” to return to normal! Like so many of these diet/detox/remedy/supplements they work for some people and not for others. Tried it, didn’t work, not a problem.
I have had to come off Bootea due to feeling really ill. I started getting bad pains at the back of my head and neck then got a burning sensation through my body. I also kept waking up with palpatations which was scary. So I’ve stop taking it and took allergy tablets and started to feel abit better. Just wondering if anyone has had the same allergic reaction to Bootea
I am at my most unhealthy and heaviest stage of weight, I have ever been.
I had my first cup of day time Bootea yesterday morning and as asked, drank my first evening tea last night. Luckily I started the detox on a Friday, (today is the Saturday) as since early hours I have been in a lot of pain and unable to leave the toilet. Hence why I have resulted in looking up the side effects and found this. I also started a calorie controlled diet yesterday in which I consumed 600 calories and drank 2 pints of water (aiming for 4 – I really do not drink enough). Before hand my diet was terribly poor, I would eat anything and everything. Due to this I will continue with the Bootea – as I have a lot of bad foods to cleanse my body of and I can hope once cleared, these ‘side effects’ will ease due to having a cleansed stomach.
I will keep you informed of my progress.
Claims to be UK based with UK address given as generic business center at Abney Hall, Cheshire, where many other businesses are apparently also based. No contact number listed. No unit number. Signed up but read reviews and cancelled within 1 hour of order on a Sunday night but they still dispatched order and took payment even though they said they would not. Rejected delivery 1 month ago and emailed them again to point out they had shipped the order, no reply. Further email sent and they simply replied ‘Just send order back for refund’ even though I never actually received it. Further emails sent but no reply. Have now reported matter to my card company to prevent further payment being taken. I suspect this company does not operate out of the Cheshire address and have reported the issue to the landlords of the address. Be careful you do not sign up to their monthly plan. Very hard to cancel without effective contact routes and having now read the above review by the watchdog I realise I would probably have wasted money if I had actually tried it.
Hello I have just purchased this bootea teatox on the other hand I was wondering if it will affect the contraception injection as I cannot find any source of this answer??? Help….
It only affects pills apparently, on all pills it says if you vomit or have diarrhoea after taking it the pill may not be absorbed into your body, but things like the implant or injection don’t work like that so you will be fine
I’d love to comment but my order has not arrived. Bootea have, however, taken the money from my account. Customer service is rubbish and Bootea have ensured that it is impossible to speak to anyone.
Has any complaint been formally lodged regarding any pregnancy as a result of taking this tea. I have found myself since and pregnant after taking the same pill religious for years.
How do I feel unwell on bootea
ive been on this for 4 days now, the morning after the laxative tea is BAD but I feel well more energised, have been working out more and just generally better in myself. I would give it a go, if you don’t like it stop. It’s even stopped me drinking diet coke which is a bonus ????
I am halfway through my.second 14 day Bootea. I did one about 6months ago. It kick starts me getting back to healthier eating after a period of time where I “let it go”
I am following the suggested meal plans to the letter and feel fab. I haven’t had any cramps or other nasty side effects but do drink plenty of water as advised either cold or hot with lemon and managed three times at the gym this week. I hope to be as committed for my second week and then carry on being sensible when I can. If I loose a few pounds I will be thrilled but I already feel good inside after a week. The only weird thing is that the smell of the night time teatox drives one of my cats into a frenzy!.lol.
I will definitely use it again in the future.
Hi Jackie, my cat goes absolutely mental for the night time ones too. She tries to pinch the teabag and keeps sticking her head and paws in the cup! ????
I bought this detox tea after a friend told me it would help my weight loss (I’m a sucker for any weight loss tips) I drank the day detox and within hours my tummy was grumbling and churning… I thought I’d carry on and see if this was just a slight reaction to the tea, I didn’t feel ill at this point. I then drank the night tea again within an hour I felt sick, shivering, terrible cramps and just ill. I ended up throwing up as the sickness became too much. I will not recommend this product I’ve never felt as ill in such a short period of time. Waste of money heathy eating n excersise is the only way to loose weight. Please be careful.
Hya started this yesterday. Had morning tea got head ache and feel sick. Had night time tea slept ok no difference in bowl.movement but woke up with raging head ache and sickness. Had morning tea still head ache and sickness. Not sure if I should carry.on with this.
This tea made me feel so ill, I felt faint constantly it has lead to IBS as soon as I stopped drinking it I put more weight back on than I lost in the first place, my bowels have not recovered after drinking this tea. Waste of time do not reccomend
This tea is absolutely brilliant. I’ve been urinating and excavating for England. I’ve had no side effects whatsoever. I suffer from waterworks and bowel problems and Boo tea has helped me to be regular. I intend to get a bigger box next time and I’ve lost weight using this product. Well done Boo tea 5 stars I love it
I was really excited to try this tea, which I ordered a week ago and still haven’t recieved. I’m nervous I won’t get it all now due to all the bad reviews on shipping. Also the messing with your contraceptive has really freaked me out because I cannot have that at all. Something that messes with a contraceptive that’s not an antibiotic sounds very risky and strange to me if its all natural products. I guess we’ll see how it goes.
Did you receive a confirmtation email? And did you get your package yet? I ordered my tea a few days ago and I still haven’t gotten an email
I took bootea for two months, using the bedtime cleanse only about once a week. If you take them during the day then you will go in the evening. Stomach pain was crippling and had a massive laxative effect and lasted the whole day. The daytime tea tasted nice and I did like it and felt less bloated and my stomach felt and looked slimmer definitely. HOWEVER now that I have stopped taking it due to the cost, my stomach has gone back to exactly what it was before, even though my eating habits have not changed much and I’m still a regular gym buddy. Quite annoyed about this. I am now just buying tea from the supermarket, such as green tea, peppermint tea or herbal tea.
