Laxatives are dangerous; they may result in temporary weight loss (caused by loss of water, not by loss of fat), and abusing them can result in severe medical complications resulting in hospitalization and, in some cases, even death. Laxatives should be used ONLY when someone is suffering from EXTREME constipation, and even then only rarely.
