Most herbal diet teas fall into one of two categories. The first type contains stimulants that supposedly cause us to burn fat faster, though scientific studies have not yet proven this claim. Since they are stimulants, they may also work as appetite suppressants, these teas also carry the risks of other appetite suppressants, including nervousness, headaches and sleeplessness. Examples of stimulant ingredients include ephedra, ephedrine, ma huang, kola nut, and guarana. The other major type of "diet tea" produces weight loss by acting as a laxative or diuretic to promote the loss of large amounts of body fluid. Unlike fiber-based "bulk" laxatives, these stimulant laxatives become habit-forming by causing intestinal muscle to lose the ability to function without them. By causing excess water loss, they can also lower levels of important minerals like potassium, which can cause serious health problems. Some of the most common of these stimulant laxatives are senna, locust plant, angustofolia, cassia angustofolia, cascara and buckthorn. These same ingredients can also be found in herbal "cleansing" or "purifying" products. Experts warn that the use of such products is hazardous.
