Welcome to HealthcareMagic,
Do not take any power for weight loss unless recommended by a physician. Most of these powders will not effect periods but still it is preferable to avoid them.
In order to reduce weight follow the given below advice:
1. Regular exercise such as brisk walking for at least 40 minutes per day, twice daily.
2. Consume a diet rich in fruits, vegetables and low fat dairy products.
3. Have more of legumes and beans
4. Reduce salt intake to less than 5 grams per day (1 teaspoon is approximately 5 grams)
5. Limit biscuits, cakes, pastries, pies, processed meats, commercial burgers, pizza, fried foods, potato chips, crisps and other savoury snacks.
6. Avoid consuming alcohol and aerated drinks as they have high calories.
Last but not least drink plenty of water.
Hope that answers you question.
Regards, Dr.Imaad
