Lotus Leaf Tea
A study was undertaken to investigate the weight loss potential of Lotus leaf but this time using rats. The study investigated the effect of Lotus leaf on enzyme activity, fat metabolism and thermogenesis in a population of rats that were fed a high fat diet for a period of five weeks. It was discovered that the Lotus leaves inhibited the digestion process whereby preventing the absorption of some fats and carbohydrates, increased fat breakdown and increased enzyme activity which resulted in a greater calorie demand. All of these effects result in weight loss.
