Weight gain - Chanca piedra

[Guest guest]

Stania,

I too retain about 4 pounds of water, which mysteriously disappears a few

days only to return. How much tea do you drink, when trying to get rid of

the retained water ? And do you use it all the time or only as needed ?

Thanks for the info.

Dear Annette, my experience is very similar. I do not lose weight even when

supplementing thyroid hormone. When I complained about it to my endo dr she

told me the cause is probably my poor immune system. I have learnt that the

only thing that helped me tremendously to get rid of retained water was

Breakstone tea (Chanca Piedra) - actually I realized that it was retained

water after 4days' use of this tea when I looked in the mirror and saw my

face was sinificantly less rounded (as well as my neck and other parts of my

body) and four pounds less. Originally I started to drink Chanca piedra to

improve digestion.

When I am my most ill I gain weight more quickly.

Antidepressants were the worst for me as I have

written about before. Diet makes no difference and my

experimentation has been extensive. Also exercise

programs.... It also is related to hormones.

In my case the " normal "

relationship between total calories and weightgain

doesn't exist. Annette
