Does chamomile make you lose weight? Here’s what the experts say: “crazy”

Chamomile has always been used since ancient times, for the treatment of various medical conditions such as digestive, gynecological, respiratory or skin diseases. Without claiming to be considered a universal panacea, chamomile is still used today for its beneficial health effects and also for weight loss. Chamomile is best known worldwide for its ability to calm and relax the body, it is a powerful diuretic that can have a significant influence on weight loss as it helps flush toxins from the body, dramatically reduces stress accumulated during the day and the release of hormones that create fat deposits on the abdomen.

Drinking a cup of chamomile tea before any meal of the day stimulates the production of gastric juices, which help support digestion. It is also strongly recommended to drink a cup of it before going to bed, to ensure a peaceful sleep because sleep disorders hinder the production of insulin and other hormonal processes which have a very direct effect on the storage of excess pounds and therefore put a spoke in the wheel in the wheel of all weight loss efforts.

Since this diet is successful, it is therefore good to follow these tips for a period ranging from one month to three months, obviously depending on the number of kilos you want to lose. Applied correctly, this diet can help you lose weight up to 7 kilos from the first month of treatment and moreover, the association of chamomile with dosages of tincture has an even more diuretic and laxative effect which promotes burning and prevents fluid retention.

It is also possible to combine the effects of chamomile with tea, since the caffeine contained in the latter speeds up the process of losing weight; but another combination is also indicated by chamomile combined with lemon juice as it aims to stimulate the production of gastric juices and detoxify our body of harmful substances. But be careful because if you suffer from acute diarrhea it is good to avoid taking chamomile. In fact, the benefits of this plant should not be abused, as it may be able to create feelings of vomiting, heartburn and even bring the body to almost total (and dangerous) dehydration.
