German Herb Slimming Tea

This leads us on to German Herb Slimming Tea, a product that seems to have failed on all accounts yet is still quite popular with customers. Let’s take a further look!

German Herb Slimming Tea Overview

What you need to know about German Herb Slimming Tea

German Herb Slimming Tea is essentially a cheap laxative tea which contains Senna as the principle ingredient according to the picture on the box! The tea is made in Thailand and comes with zero background information and we have real concerns about its safety. Many people have experienced side effects by using it and although losing weight through laxatives can work short term, this is not a healthy or effective option.

What are the side effects of German Herb Slimming Tea?

Side effects may include increased bowel movements, diarrhoea, stomach pains, swelling of fingers or toes, increased urination, constipation once use has ceased, dizziness, rash, heart palpitations, nausea, thirst, dry mouth, fatigue, fainting, inability to sweat or urinate, weight loss, and fever.

According to doctors, taking laxatives long term can cause dependency making it difficult to open the bowels without their use.

German Slimming Detox Tea contains additional and unknown ingredients which may have unknown side effects.

How much does German Herb Slimming Tea cost?

German Herb Slimming Tea is not expensive and you can shop around for the price.

You can find it on sale from Amazon USA where you can expect to pay around $8.50 for a pack of 50 teabags depending on the seller.

We have also seen it on eBay UK for around £2.99 for 50 bags. This costs an additional £2.99 for shipping from Thailand. Comparable options are available from eBay USA.

German Herb Slimming Tea Key Features

German Herb Slimming Tea is a detox tea so in general with other similar products it is going to have a strong laxative effect. Many people believe that a detox/laxative is good for health and weight loss because it flushes toxins, and although there is zero medical evidence that this is true and it can cause side effects, it is popular and many people believe in it.

German Herb Slimming Tea is manufactured in Thailand and although there is nothing wrong with that, it does mean that there is a lack of background information available for the western market. It is quite possible that this company use a clean and reputable factory and that it contains safe and food grade ingredients. Alternatively, it may not. The problem is that we don’t really know anything about it because this information is not available.

This leads us on to the ingredients list which is fairly mysterious. The principle ingredient is something called Large Flower and we have no idea what this is, although it could be Senna. Other ingredients include chamomile, hawthorn, radish, camellia, bean, and morning glory. Check out the ingredients tab to find out more.

The signs that German Herb Slimming Tea is a high-quality supplement are just not there. The tea sachets are packaged in a distinctive green box with a sillouette of a woman surrounded by flowers topped off by the words “Sliming Tea”. OK, English is obviously not the producer’s first language, but getting the name wrong for the actual title doesn’t give the impression that this is a high-quality supplement prepared with any care and attention to detail.

You might think we are being picky here and it is what we do, but it is important to remember that you are supposed to drink this stuff so you do need to trust that any unknown product like this is safe and will not cause any bad reactions or side effects.

What does German Herb Slimming Tea claim to do?

According to the various adverts, German Herb Slimming Tea is:

• A herbal beverage
• Slimming Herb is good for overweighted persons who do not want to control food consumption
• Prevents accumulation of fat
• It nourishes and accelerates ‘internal cleansing’ of the body

Some adverts use the following text to describe how it works:

Sliming Herb Teas are an all-natural, herbal beverage with no preservatives or artificial colors or flavors. Taken regularly, it nourishes and accelerates ‘internal cleansing’ of the body. To stay slim and healthy, the gastrointestinal system must function well. If ‘toxins’ are allowed to accumulate in the intestines, the person will feel tired and sluggish, experience bad breath, water retention and an accumulation of excess fat in the body.

Stressful environment, heavy work pressure, poor dietary habit (heavy meals with lots of fried food), lack of exercise. All these can contribute to build up of toxins in your system. Your intestines are like drainpipes in your kitchen where grease and other ‘rubbish’ are constantly poured down the drain. If it is not cleaned regularly, the oil and grease will slowly form a film around the insides of the pipes, and will eventually clog up the drain. When this happens in the intestines, the result is poor absorption of nutrients

Does German Herb Slimming Tea work?

German Herb Slimming Tea is billed as a detox tea and that means laxative! If you are looking for a laxative, drinking this tea may help get things moving. It is true that stress, lack of exercise, and poor dietary habits are not good for health. But taking a laxative will not put this right.

German Herb Slimming Tea does not come with much ingredients information. The principle ingredient which makes up a whopping 65% of the mix is simply described as “Large Flower.” There is a picture of this flower on the box and judging by this, it does look like Senna. This means that it will be effective as a laxative but does come with many health concerns.

All nutritionists agree that detox teas are not good for health. Senna, the main ingredient, should not be used on a regular basis and it can lead to dependency on laxatives (lazy bowel) as well as heart problems, dehydration, and muscle damage.

In addition, there is no reason to take a detox and “clean “your system in this way. Your body has a liver and kidneys to filter out any so-called toxins, and your colon does not need any additional help from a product like this.

Getting healthier, including more fibre into your diet and ensuring that you drink plenty of water is far better for health than any detox tea product.

German Herb Slimming Tea Ingredients

Serving size is equal to one tea bag.

• Large flower (65%): This is Senna and a powerful laxative and according to medical advice, can cause some very real health problems especially if you take it regularly for longer than 7 days. You should only use Senna sparingly if you suffer from constipation, and seek medical advice if the condition continues for longer than a few days. Senna works by irritating the lining of the bowel, it contains chemicals called sennosides and this causes the laxative effect.
• Hawthorn (8%): Medicinal plant extract used for a variety of purposes and believed to improve heart function by increasing blood flow. It is well known as a diuretic meaning it will make you pee more. It can cause side effects and is known to interact with prescription drugs such as heart medication.
• Chamomile (4%): Most people take chamomile for its soothing and sleep-inducing effects. It contains a compound called Apigenin which is known to reduce anxiety.
• Radish (3%): Radish is sometimes taken for digestive disorders and is believed to stimulate the digestive juices, but there is no real evidence that it does.
• Camellia (3%): This is a plant family that includes tea as well as flowering plants that are popular in the garden. Camellias originate from Asia and with other 300 described species, plus thousands of hybrids between the species, it is impossible to know which one is used here.
• Steering bean (3%): We have no information about what this even is!
• Morning-glory (4%): Common name for over 1000 species of flowering plants.

If you have any type of digestive issues, this really helps. This is my go to when I am bloated or can not use the bathroom and it works instantly and although many don’t like how it tastes, you can add honey. I have honestly grown to the taste

Some customers like it but experience side effects,

Works wonders. It does give a slight tummy ache but we’ll worth it and really helps cleanse your system. I use this as a detox replacement.

This customer mentioned the weight loss,

I did lose weight, one week of drinking this tea and my stomach is flatter, but it was all poop weight. If I was more on top of my diet and exercise I could have lost actual fat. This is a short term weight loss, if you’re looking to look flat for an event then this is good but it doesn’t cure your obesity.

This customer also used it for weight loss,

You definitely lose weight on this tea, I lost 2 pounds in three days. But if you’re doing this just cause you wanted to lose a little weight like me… it’s like drinking a laxative, you’ll be pooping on stop for the entire time you drink this tea. Get comfortable pooping in public because unless you never want to leave your home again this tea is gonna make you have to go every thirty minutes. It also gives you the cramps just like a normal laxative.

Many customers have mentioned unpleasant side effects

It makes you go to the restroom but it makes you cramp for 3 days non stop!!!! Don’t take this!

Many people welcome the laxative effect,

This tea keeps me in the bathroom. It’s very effective.

Watchdog Verdict

We do not rate German Herb Slimming Tea at all! When you buy unknown supplements online you are taking a massive health risk and this tea product is one of the worst we have seen for a while. The lack of a proper ingredients list is a major concern and the fact that this contains a form of Senna as the principle ingredient could be extremely dangerous especially if taken long term.

We could never add such a dangerous supplement as German Herb Slimming Tea to our approved list. We do not recommend German Herb Slimming Tea to our readers.
