Why Celebrities Really Drink Detox Tea

You’ve seen them sprinkled all over Instagram and other social media platforms. Photos of your favorite celebrities with their Teami detox tea, on their way to a workout or just hanging out looking glamorous and clutching their tea.

Ever wonder why they seem so committed to their daily detox tea? Is it solely because of a celebrity endorsement? (Which surely gives them all the free tea they could possibly drink?!)

Or do they drink it because it really promotes better health, makes them feel good, and causes them to see results? Yes, exactly that! They have seen the amazing results and positive impact that a detox tea can have on their physical body and mental energy and alertness.

1. To relieve bloat.

If you had to squeeze yourself into a tiny dress and then be photographed by dozens of photographers from every angle, you’d pass out if you had to suck it in the whole time.

Drinking detox tea can help relieve a bloated gut and rid the colon of toxins, leaving you feeling less weighed down and cleaner.

Relieving bloat is the specialty of Teami’s Colon tea. It contains senna leaf, which is a non-prescription FDA approved laxative. It helps clear the bowel and is used to treat constipation. Colon tea can help to rid your body of toxins and aid in digestion and proper food absorption.

2. To benefit their skin

“Tea, which is rich in polyphenols (molecules that have antioxidant properties), can help keep your skin hydrated, reverse the effects of UV damage, and reduce inflammation.” (Women’s Health).

Celebrities may have found their fame in many ways - acting, music, reality TV, philanthropy - but no matter what they do or have done to become famous, one thread runs through it all: They have to look good.

Many celebrities are known for their beautiful skin, and drinking a detox tea or even just a regular tea like Teami Alive, can help maintain a clear complexion and healthy, attractive looking skin.

3. To support a healthy liver

Let’s be honest. These celebrities go to their share of parties and surely partake in alcohol and many different bacon-wrapped goodies that may not exactly leave them feeling healthy.

Detox teas usually contain herbs like ginger, lemongrass, and milk thistle, which are all said to support a healthy liver, one of your organs that helps regulate your natural detoxifying process.

The seeds of this plant [milk thistle] have been used for at least 2,000 years to help protect healthy cells in the body, encourage the production of new cells, and stop inflammation in the body, especially of the liver. (Natural On)

4. To suppress their appetite

Keeping to a consistent weight is of great importance to most celebrities, as they are under the public eye, not to mention the need for character continuity if they act in movies or a television series.

Drinking green tea can stabilize blood sugar and help curb the impulse to snack.

“...nutritionists say that the catechins in green tea help to inhibit the movement of glucose into fat cells, which slows the rise of blood sugar and prevents high insulin and subsequent fat storage. And when your blood sugar is more stable so is your hunger!” (Shape Magazine)

5. To lose weight

Alright, alright, alright! We were all amazed at Matthew McConaughey’s amazing weight loss a few years ago for Dallas Buyer’s Club. Often actors need to shed some pounds for a part, or just to keep up their youthful figure.

If you are trying to lose weight, going through a detox cycle could help to jumpstart a weight-loss routine, or, help you lose those last few pounds. 

Lose Weight by Eating concludes that detox teas, “...help people in all stages of their weight loss trim a few pounds, making it a great option for just about everyone.”
