Fad diets or diet pills sound tempting but they do not lead to real weight loss. At best, they lead to rapid water loss (not fat). At worst, they lead to increased weight gain, a slow metabolism, depression and obesity. Diet products use aspartame so that they can claim that these are good to help you lose weight. The exact opposite is true. When you are eating or drinking diet products using aspartame you are almost assured to gain weight. The sweet taste in your mouth sends a signal to the brain that sugar is coming. The brain in turns tells the liver to stop converting fat to sugar for energy, because fresh sugar is coming. When glucose( sugar) does not show up - the brain sends out the message that it needs sugar to keep functioning. That signal gets interpreted as hunger and off you go to find something to eat. "Diet" products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs. This is why people who drink a lot of diet sodas have bigger hips and thighs. Even worse, this is a big reason why the American population is turning obese and/or suffering from cancers and diabetes.

When you drink one 12 oz can of soda you have to drink 12 - 10 ounce glasses of water to neutralize the acidic effects of that soda in your body. When cells don't get enough of oxygen they need to create energy, they ferment blood sugar ( glucose) for energy instead, and that creates acidity - pH level of the body. At an Alkaline ph balance slightly above 7.6 cancer cells stop growing and replicating. At pH 8.5 cancer cells die.

I recommend incorporating tea into your diet to help with weight loss. Tea contains caffeine, flavanols, polyphenols, vitamins and other substances that promote fat oxidation, which helps remove excess body fat, therefore, the more you drink tea the slimmer you get!

Koni Simply Slim and Koni Slimming Goddess Polyphenols found in Black and Oolong tea work as a fat destroying enzyme. The compound helps destroy fat and boost your metabolism. The polyphenols also help defy aging by battling free radicals - unstable forms of oxygen that damage cell function. In 2006, new research at the Northwestern University Bio Med Department, scientific evidence was presented that suggests that Oolong Tea lowers the amount of blood lipids, causing the slimming effect.

Koni Slim it Sencha- Green tea is particularly rich in a type of polyphenol called catechins. These substances have also been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties, but recent research in animals show that catechins may also decrease fat absorption, increase fat excretion, suppress appetite, and decrease cholesterol levels.

Recommendation: Control your calorie intake and increase the number of calories you burn through exercise.
It is also very important to eat three nutritious meals a day to enhance your metabolism. Before each meal, have 2 cups of Koni Slimming Teas. If you skip meals, your metabolism slows, and this means that your body's adjusting itself into starvation mode, and making your calories stretch. This is dangerous if you're trying to lose weight. When you're feeling hungry, just make yourself a cup of an Koni slimming tea. This will help suppress your appetite until you are ready for your next healthy meal

Although these types of teas may help, always follow the advice of your healthcare professional.

  • Phuong Says: March 25th, 2011, 10:03am Hi Vikki! The phytoestrogenic and antioxidant activity of Licorice Root is believed to be helpful for hormonal disorders such as fatigue, mood swings, and hot flashes in menopausal women. KONI Throat Revival is a great one and it is caffeine free which is also what you want. <3
  • Vikki Says: March 15th, 2011, 12:51pm Hi Phuong, I know you're too young, but was wondering if you have done any research on how tea can help with on-going Hot Flashes and if so what would be the best blend of tea. Thanks Vikki
  • Phuong Says: January 12th, 2009, 11:47am Holy Detox is great too if you're looking for a natural and gentle way to detox your body. The main ingredient in this tea is Tulsi Basil - it helps protect the physiology from environmental toxins and pollution. Tulsi Basil helps to detoxify any toxin that might be circulating through our body via blood thereby it has the property to purify blood. http://www.konitea.com/holy-detox-p-57.html
  • Phuong Says: November 26th, 2008, 1:00pm Hi Karen, You want to drink a premium loose oolong tea. Loose teas use the whole leaf while the teabags usually use the cut, ground or "dust" leaf. This makes regular teabags that produce fewer Antioxidants and more Caffeine than loose teas. Another important factor which you may consider is bleach residue, a chemical, which remains on the teabags. The tea found in Wu-Yi tea bags does not deliver as many qualities as they claim. Sites like Wu-Yi and Wu-Long prey upon the chronic dieter's desperation to charge an extra buck or two on an already expensive product. The real deal, premium loose tea, is worth it. Plus with loose tea, you can use the same brewed leaves up to 3 times. You may want to check out this site: http://www.dietblogtalk.com/WuYiSource.html. Wu-Yi has too many negative comments.
  • Karen C Says: November 26th, 2008, 10:07am I was looking at the function of tea vs. weight loss. I noticed yours is for loosing 'that 5 lbs.' I have more than that to loose and had looked unto another website WuYiSource.com. Do you have any professional comments about their product? Thank you.
