It\u2019s claimed to have been sold over 2 million different times to different distributes and customers.<\/p>\n<p>There are 2 ingredients for weight loss, and additional flavors depending on which of these teas are purchased. They offer Acai berry, raspberry, pomegranate, goji berry, and blueberry. The website claims it will help provide balance to the body while preventing bloating. Each tea pack has no added colors or GMO ingredients. \u00a0Our review experts analyze many kinds of diets and they\u2019ve concluded the best for weight loss is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/06\/18shake-review\/\"><u>18Shake Diet<\/u><\/a>. It\u2019s comprised of a meal replacement made to suppress appetite for hours with its rich protein and fiber, and a fat burning diet pill free of stimulants.

The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health mentions:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThere are not enough reliable data to determine whether green tea can aid in weight loss\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They have also expressed concern over its safety:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThere have been some case reports of liver problems in people taking concentrated green tea extracts\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unknown if this also extends to green tea in its whole form.<\/p>\n<p>Due to its added caffeine, it can potentially lead to side effects that include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Anxiety, insomnia, and irritability.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Mood swings, diarrhea, and nausea.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Upset stomach, frequent urination, and inability to relax.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Rapid heart rate, cardiovascular damage, and agitation.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Jitters, cold sweats and involuntary muscle twitches.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Headaches, migraine headaches, and ringing in the ears.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Muscle pain, weakness, and depression.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The company also fails to provide any information on how much caffeine is found via the added green tea. Since caffeine is the only reason why green tea might have a weight loss effect, it\u2019s important to know the total amount. \u00a0Excess amounts have also been linked to serious potential side effects. The top ranked weight loss diets are featured in the link provided.<\/p>\n<p>Caffeine is not considered a long lasting solution for weight loss. Examine.com confirms this by stating:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cHabitual caffeine use leads to tolerance\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cthe effects of caffeine will be diminished, often to the point where the only benefit a user experiences is caffeine\u2019s anti-sleep effect\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In order to keep experiencing caffeine\u2019s effects, it\u2019s advised to take a month long break. Caffeine is not a very effective ingredient, and it can be found in many other foods. Taking repeat amounts of it will ensure there are no benefits for weight loss.<\/p>\n<p>Another study by the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews showed that it:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cappear(s) to induce a small, statistically, non-significant weight loss in overweight or obese adults\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They also concluded that:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cBecause the amount of weight loss is small, it is not likely to be clinically important. Green tea had no significant effect on the maintenance of weight loss\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Therefore, this key active ingredient in Slim Tea is not enough to produce any weight loss effects.<\/p>\n<p>Other important considerations to make are explained by the University of Maryland Medical Center:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cPeople with heart problems or high blood pressure, kidney problems, liver problems, stomach ulcers, and psychological disorders particular anxiety, should not take green tea\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201ccan trigger side effects and interact with other herbs, supplements, or medications\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One has to consider possible interactions, the amount of caffeine added, and many other potential issues.<\/p>\n<p>Not everyone reacts to this ingredient the same, for some much less is needed for there to be an effect. Because of this type of dosing, it\u2019s important to consider what kinds of reactions one has to this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Senna Leaves: <\/strong>Natural plant used to help promote laxative effects. The sennosides found within irritate the stomach lining, which then promotes bathroom use. It can take a few hours before its effects are experienced, sometimes up to 12 hours&#8230; This is why it\u2019s often advised to take it before bedtime.<\/p>\n<p>Possible side effects can include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Stomach pain, digestive issues and cramps.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Diarrhea, nausea, and weakness.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Reddish and brown urine.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Vomiting, diarrhea, and increased urination.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Irregular heartbeat, dizziness, and mood changes.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Severe stomach pain, low potassium, and dehydration.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em> Uneven heart rate, loss of appetite, and discoloration of the eyes and skin.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Drugs.com also adds:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThere are no regulated manufacturing standards in place\u2026 many herbal compounds and some marketed supplement have been found to be contaminated with toxic metals or other drugs\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The makers of Slim Tea add no notice on whether or not their Senna is sourced from a wholesome extract.<\/p>\n<p>One interesting recommendation by Drugs.com is to:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cDo not use this product for longer than 1 week without the advice of a healthcare provider\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The makers of Slim Tea never offer this important warning. Continued use can have serious health risks which need to be considered. \u00a0The manufactures make it seem as if this is a long term solution for weight loss. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/best-rated-deits\/\">Healthy options for weight loss are possible via the top ranked diets.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h5><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Slim Tea Quality of Ingredients<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>There are just 2 active ingredients and one flavoring agent. Green tea can be found in many different tea brands, and there\u2019s no notice of this green tea being anything unique. Though green tea has had questionable results, and leading health sites mention there\u2019s no possible weight loss effect that isn\u2019t just from the caffeine.<\/p>\n<p>Senna is not recommended for longer than 1 week without the recommendation of a healthcare provider. It\u2019s known to potentially cause many serious side effects. Since use is extremely limited, this brand is not a long-term solution for weight loss.<\/p>\n<p>These 2 ingredients can also be found in many other teas. No evidence is provided by the manufactures to help show why this version is any better.<\/p>\n<p>A list of the top weight loss diets is made available by clicking here.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>The Price and Quality of Slim Tea<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Sales are offered direct from the official website, with a <strong>25 package serving costing $5.99. \u00a0<\/strong>No money back guarantee is offered however.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing unique is added in Slim Tea that can\u2019t be replaced with other similar products. There\u2019s no mention from the manufacturers that due to the added Senna, it\u2019s not advised to take it for longer than a week period. They also fail to mention the laxative effects which are what Senna is often used for.<\/p>\n<p>Green tea is another cheap ingredient which can easily be replaced. Due to the 2 sole active ingredients being potentially side effect causing and not unique, this brand is a poor mixture of ingredients.

Some did experience side effects such as bloating, dehydration, constipation, and stomach issues.<\/p>\n<p>There were a few people who did manage to lose weight, but it\u2019s unknown if this was caused by their diet and exercise.<\/p>\n<p>Some found the taste unpleasant and artificial tasting. There were also concerns that there isn\u2019t much different between Slim Tea and other detox teas. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/best-rated-deits\/\">The best weight loss diets are featured in a list found here.<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"execphp-30\" class=\"widget widget_execphp widget-shortcode area-btn-sb \">\t\t\t<div class=\"execphpwidget\">                <h5 class=\"additional-r\"><strong>How Does\r\n                  Slim Tea                  Compare?<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n                <div class=\"comp-table-mk\">\r\n                  <div class=\"mk-896\">\r\n                    <ul class=\"header-tr\">\r\n                      <li> Product Name <\/li>\r\n                      <li> User Rating <\/li>\r\n                      <li> Easy to follow <\/li>\r\n                      <li> Cheap Price <\/li>\r\n                      <li> Fast Results <\/li>\r\n                    <\/ul>\r\n                  <\/div>\r\n                  <ul class=\"gr-tr main-s\">\r\n                    <li class=\"v-mk\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/09\/18shake-diet\/\" target=\"_blank\">18 Shake Diet<br>\r\n                      <small>(Editor\u2019s Choice)<\/small><\/a> <\/li>\r\n                    <li> <strong>97\/100<\/strong> <\/li>\r\n                    <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                    <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                    <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                  <\/ul>\r\n                  <div class=\"mk-896 mk-159\">\r\n                    <ul class=\"ct-nk1\">\r\n                      <li> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/high-protein-diet\/\" target=\"_blank\">High Protein Diet<\/a> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> 91\/100 <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                    <\/ul>\r\n                    <ul class=\"gr-tr ct-nk2\">\r\n                      <li> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/the-dukan-diet\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dukan Diet<\/a> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> 89\/100 <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <\/li>\r\n                    <\/ul>\r\n                    <ul class=\"ct-nk3\">\r\n                      <li> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/the-paleo-diet\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Paleo Diet<\/a> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> 87\/100 <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <\/li>\r\n                    <\/ul>\r\n                    <ul class=\"gr-tr ct-nk4\">\r\n                      <li> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/plexus-slim\/\" target=\"_blank\">Plexus Slim<\/a> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> 77\/100 <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <\/li>\r\n                    <\/ul>\r\n                    <ul class=\"last-m\">\r\n                      <li>\r\n                        Slim Tea                      <\/li>\r\n                      <li>\r\n                        29                        \/100 <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                      <li> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/check.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/li>\r\n                    <\/ul>\r\n                  <\/div>\r\n                <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode -->\n<h5><strong>Conclusion &#8211; Does Slim Tea Work?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Before making a final decision on Slim Tea, it\u2019s important to take a look at the customer reviews, kinds of ingredients used, and what the likelihood of weight loss is. The additives found in this are already found in other similar brands, though this is not an effective weight loss solution. One of the ingredients in green tea can cause side effects, and it\u2019s not proven to help with weight loss. Senna can promote many side effects, and it\u2019s advised to only take it for a week long period. This fact is not mentioned by the makers of Slim Tea.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/06\/18shake-review\/\">Out of all the weight loss diets available, the 18Shake Diet was reviewed as the overall favorite.<\/a> It\u2019s made up of a fat burning, stimulant free diet pill, and an appetite suppressing meal replacement. Customer testimonials and reviews have given it glowing reviews for its weight loss effects.<\/p>\n<p>18Shake Diet is manufactured in a GMP certified 3<sup>rd<\/sup> party reviewed facility.
