The lotus effect refers to self-cleaning properties that are a result of very high water repellence as exhibited by the leaves of the lotus flower (Nelumbo). Dirt particles are picked up by water droplets due to the micro- and nanoscopic architecture on the surface, which minimizes the droplet's adhesion to that surface.
There are even studies showing how lotus leaves hen used with L-carnitine (something that helps the body turn fat into energy) can treat weight problems. Looks like with these two things combined, fatty tissues weren�t even able to form!
Lotus leaves were specially good with preventing people from gaining weight and absorbing carbohydrates and fats which then becomes energy.
