Wuyi tea (also called wu yi, wu long, and wulong or oolong tea) is a delightful natural tea that falls in between the green tea and black tea families...but the good news is it is also proven to have fat burning and weight loss properties.
If you want to burn fat, speeding your metabolism is what you need to do and there is scientific evidence that wuyi does indeed increase metabolism.
A Japanese study concluded that women drinking wu yi tea burned twice as many calories as women drinking traditional green tea.
It has also been proven that drinking woo long tea can prevent foods from being stored as fat. Drinking tea 15 minutes prior to eating carbs can prevent the absorption of fats caused by the insulin boost / fat storage associated with eating carbs and sugar.
That means you can eat bread, pasta and cake (in moderation) and not store the fat that is usually associated with these foods.
Also note, wuyi tea is not a typical Chinese diet tea you see promoted all over the internet. Most of these diet teas contain additives that are basically "laxatives", for example many contain "Senna" a powerful laxative. You may have tried one of these diet teas and experienced some pretty extreme side effects like cramping and diarrhea.
Wuyi Tea is one ingredient... pure tea, so don't confuse these laxative" dieters teas" with natural wu long oolong teas, they are completely different.
So how much weight or fat can you really burn by drinking wu yi tea?
If you are looking to use tea as a sole means of losing fat you may be disappointed. It does speed metabolism but if you are looking to lose serious fat, you'll need to combine tea along with a good fat burning diet for real results.
