Certain pharmaceutical or herbal weight-loss remedies can cause a diuretic effect, which can lead to
a. bad breath.
b. yellow teeth.
c. weight gain.
d. a loss of water and essential minerals in the body.
Correct answer is D. Many weight loss remedies cause expulsion of water from the body, in order to reduce body weight. This leads to loss of some essential minerals and vitamins, during the process. But this kind of weight loss is temporary and as soon water is taken, the body starts gaining the weight again.
