Inspired by endorsement from celebrities like Lindsay Lohan and Kendall and Kylie Jenner, we’ve seen a growing trend of women turning to detox teas as a “quick fix” way to lose weight.

Known as a “teatox”, the specially formulated teas – usually purchased online – claim to detox the body with “all natural” ingredients by flushing out the digestive system, usually with a laxative effect.

It’s a product that has concerned health experts for some time, but the latest side effect is truly worrying, with a growing number of women are reporting unplanned pregnancies while consuming the tea.

Naomi Salt, a 26 year-old from the UK told the Daily Mail she started a teatox from UK company BooTea after Christmas and is now six months pregnant.

“I am over the moon now, but I was shocked and worried at first to say the least. I am regimental about taking my pill and my first reaction was, ‘How has this happened?’,” she said. (Post continues after gallery.)

“I’m 26 year-old, I’ve got a career and I’m saving for a mortgage. Having a baby was on the cards, but not just now or even this year.”

Salt says that she only realised her pregnancy could be related to the teatox program when she was shown a warning on Bootea’s website by a friend.

"Bootea may affect the accuracy of the pill if you take your pill in the morning within four hours of the laxative effect," the online warning reads.

Because the teas flush out the system, if the pill has taken before the laxatives have taken effect, the pill will not be absorbed into the bloodstream and as a result ineffective.

While this information is listed in the FAQ section of the website, the warning does not appear on the packaging, something Salt says is "irresponsible".

 "They've got a duty of care to young women like myself. Bootea assumes people check the website but not everyone will," she told the Daily Mail.

She's not alone - on several online forums, women have posted their experience with the tea, expressing their surpise at discovering they were pregnant and anger at the company for inadequate warning.

"Upon purchasing the product I read everything on the order page and the disclaimer it advises to read when ordering... What I didn't read was the Q and As," says NetMums user, Skye.

"A friend asked if she could use it while breastfeeding and I said I'd check the FAQs for her, which is when I saw the answer. I immediately stopped drinking the tea and decided I'd wait for my next period," she wrote.

"I am now eight weeks pregnant with out their child and after four weeks of shock it has finally sunk in. I emailed BooTea to advise them to state this MAJOR side effect on the disclaimer and booking stage and they claimed it was not their responsibility to do so!"

A popular Australian equivalent, Skinny Me Tea, carries a similar warning online - right at the bottom of the FAQ section. Like Bootea, it does not appear on their packaging. (Post continues after gallery.)
