A 2026 review found no randomised trial of a tea sold for detox or weight loss, and neither did we. The mechanism is a laxative, and even four to six litres of diarrhoea cuts calorie absorption by only about 12%. The liver damage, though, is documented.
It works — but so does daily calorie restriction, and at matched calories the cleanest trial found fasting lost less fat. One good 12-month study does favour it, for a reason nobody sells: people stuck to it better.
Protein genuinely preserves lean mass while you diet — replicated across four meta-analyses. But the effect is small, it mostly fails without resistance training, and the metabolism claim was dismissed by a review the meat and dairy industries paid for.
Don't eat protein with starch: the rule has been sold since 1929. Its claim about the stomach was tested in 1934 and 1936 and failed. The diet got one real trial, in 2000, and the food-combining group lost slightly less weight. Whether it eases bloating has not been trialled, as far as we could find.
