Fennel Tea: A bit of a 'cleanser?'

I got my canister of Fennel Tea this week from Heather & Co. and immediately brewed 6 bags of it to make my usual 2 qt. brew of cold tea. I do 4 bags of green/spmnt infusion w/ 2 bags of reg. green and then top of the rest of the brew w/ regular water and chill it all to make my new favorite sup in the world, Green Mint Tea! Deelish! Anyway, so I did the same thing with my new fennel tea and it was really good cold. I drank 20 oz of the tea on Thurs. and then another 20 oz of it on Friday. I think it is having a cleansing effect on my system because I have...ahem...lost over 5 lbs since Thursday! I'm certainly not dehydrated because I drink lots of my Green Mint Tea and water throughout the day; but I was curious if anybody else had/has this happen to them and if it sort of wears off or your body acclimates to it after a few days?

Because of this cleansing effect, I had tummy trouble on both days, lots of cramps and some bloating and I was really, really hungry on Friday even though I ate my normal amounts of foods w/ my normal amounts of SF and IF that usually compliment each other enough for me to be nearly IBS-free.

The blend of Fennel that I made was 6 bags to 2 qts water. The taste was perfect, but is it possible for this blend to be too strong??

Your feedback is much appreciated.

Cheers!
