Black stools
Unexplained weight loss
Severe or persistent heartburn
Major changes in bowel habits
These symptoms should not be managed only with home remedies.
Be Careful With “Detox” Claims
A drink does not need to “flush toxins” to be useful.
Many viral posts exaggerate ordinary ingredients by claiming they can:
Clean the colon overnight
Reverse digestive disease
Remove toxins
Heal the stomach
Burn fat while sleeping
These claims are usually not supported by good evidence.
A beverage can still be pleasant or soothing without being a medical treatment.
