I set up this blog to tell my story about just how well <strong>Oolong Tea</strong> Weight Loss Tea worked for me as a weight loss product and as a natural ealth product.</p>
<p>Having been adding on the pounds since I moved to Australia I started to get a little desperate to find a solution. I tried everything including a lot of fad diets. The results were very mixed and I really felt that I was increasing my weight rather than losing it! There were no stand out products and worst of all…no easy fixes!</p>
<p>We all know that Dieting Sucks! I was not that keen on a vigorous exercising program, mainly because of a complete lack of motivation. I know how lazy that sounds but I guess I was looking for something that could give me more energy and also help with the weight loss. I was introduced to Chinese Medicine through my family at a very young age but after integrating into Western society I had put my beliefs aside.</p>
<p>My Mum reminded me of Oolong Tea and sent a month’s supply from Rock Oolong Tea from China. At this stage I was not aware of the products success on Oprah. I noticed that I had been drinking a lot of coffee and a lot of milk as a consequence. I simply replaced my coffee intake with Oolong Tea. it took some will power but I succeeded and within a week I had a noticeable increase in energy levels.<br />
<object id="Player_9323c58a-315e-4717-bdad-fd42072e9741" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="175" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ID=V20070822%2FUS%2Fwwwdiscou0d95-20%2F8010%2F9323c58a-315e-4717-bdad-fd42072e9741&amp;Operation=GetDisplayTemplate" /><param name="name" value="Player_9323c58a-315e-4717-bdad-fd42072e9741" /><param name="align" value="middle" /><embed id="Player_9323c58a-315e-4717-bdad-fd42072e9741" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="175" src="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ID=V20070822%2FUS%2Fwwwdiscou0d95-20%2F8010%2F9323c58a-315e-4717-bdad-fd42072e9741&amp;Operation=GetDisplayTemplate" quality="high" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" allowscriptaccess="always" align="middle" name="Player_9323c58a-315e-4717-bdad-fd42072e9741"></embed></object><noscript></noscript><br />
I then started losing weight around my face and began losing around 1kg per week. The increase in energy allowed me to do more stuff and the weight continued to come off. 3 months later I had lost 10 kg’s ! No major changes but I was automatically eating less and moving around more. I also noticed that I felt better with my health. I slept better, my hair had been falling out and that stopped, my stomach settled down, even my eyes felt better after being dry and sore for months.</p>
<p>I understand the frustration of not being able to shift weight and how demotivating it can be. You really need to make a lifestyle change and eat better, exercise moderately and you will find that Oolong Weight Loss Tea helps start and really finishes off the job.</p>
<p>So that’s my story and I very much recommend that if you are looking to lose some weight and make some positive long term changes and improve your overall health  then you may want to try the product that helped me. There is a selection of Oolong Teas available above and I recommend any of the selected products. Please contact me if you have any questions. All the best, Ming.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This not so new weight loss sensation has been around for a few hundred years! Oolong Tea was first produced in the 15th century in China’s Fujian province but <strong>Oolong Tea</strong> Weight Loss products have brought the tea into the public eye in more recent times.Fujian Province is where the most famous of the teas are grown, Ti Kuan Yin. This is a very healthy and refreshing tea.</p>
<p>If you are looking for side effects then …well there aren’t any known negative ones that deserve a worthwhile mention. This is an amazing product with a multitude of health benefits but it definitely has a reputation as a tea for weight loss.</p>
<p>Oolong possesses a deep, earthy flavor with hints of peach and apricot. The flavor is typically not as robust as blacks or as subtle as greens, but has its own extremely fragrant and intriguing tones. In saying that, I have found that different qualities produce a varietyof tastes.<br />
Rock Wulong tea is a more oxidized oolong tea, roasted with rich woody aroma and an apricot like aftertaste. Wu Yi Yan Cha or &#8220;Rock Wulong&#8221; is a special subcategory of Wulong tea grown in the vicinity of Wu Yi Shan City in northern Fujian Province. This Wu Yi Mountain rock wulong is named Rou Gui or cassia bark because the teas famous fragrance has some similarities to the cassia trees spicy bark; an east-Asian derivative of cinnamon. These are mostly undertones, as this is still an Wu Yi mountain tea, and nothing close to a cinnamon herbal blend. It is a unique and precious tea that is affordable enough to be consumed on a very regular basis.</p>
<p>Drinking Oolong Tea is a great way to lose weight naturally. As a weight loss tea, Oolong has received a tremendous amount of publicity as though it is the new weight-loss miracle. It has been around for centuries and definitely does have weight loss properties. Oolong tea can also suppress lipid metabolism which has the effect of suppressing fatty accumulation and body weight increases. Anyone wanting to drop pounds will benefit from daily consumption of this amazing tea for weight loss. There&#8217;s no denying that Diet Tea is one of the hottest weight-loss products on the market today, and it&#8217;s getting tremendous reviews by users and the scientific community. Slimming Tea reduces the Fattening Effects of Carbs… eating too many carbohydrates causes weight gain by increasing insulin levels. Oolong has many benefits from increasing energy levels to strengthening teeth…it isn’t just an amazing weight loss product.</p>
<p>Diet Teas such as Oolong contain polyphenols which are antioxidants that interact with each other to stimulate thermo genesis. While it can be considered a dieting aid, it is not the magic cure for obesity.  A well balanced diet and physical exercise is a safe way to loose weight but always consult your doctor if you have heath concerns or questions. Although very much in demand and a little commercialized, Oolong Tea Weight Loss products are very effective with a proven track record.<a href="http://oolongteahouse.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rock-wulong.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-65 alignright" title="rock wulong" src="http://oolongteahouse.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rock-wulong.jpg" alt="rock wulong" width="272" height="328" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey it&#8217;s Ming here. Mainly thanks to Oprah, Oolong Tea Weight Loss products are now well known throughout the world. Before the popularity hit Oolong Tea was most commonly enjoyed in Taiwan and southern China and was the tea of choice in many Chinese restaurants. You may well have unknowingly tasted the tea when you have sat down at a Chinese restaurant.</p>
<p>Oolong tea is mainly produced in Fuijan Province,China and in Taiwan, but other countries like Vietnam and Sri Lanka also produce a small amount. Taiwan is an island located off the southeast coast of China and is where some of the best quality teas come from. Oolong tea has been grown in Taiwan (Formosa) since the 19th Century, very recent in the grand scale of the cultivation of tea. Because of the ideal terrain and growing conditions, some consider that Taiwanese Oolong is the finest Oolong in the world. The tea oxidation process is stopped by pan roasting the leaves. Oolong tea is not only clear and fragrant as green tea, but also refreshing and has the body of black tea. Traditionally, like many good Chinese teas, Oolong tea is grown at altitude, typically between one and three thousand metres above sea level.</p>
<p>Alot of care is still taken in processing the tea and one of the first steps in processing Taiwan Oolong tea is to toss the leaves in large bamboo baskets. Much of the tea grown in Taiwan is almost always consumed by the Taiwanese and very little finds its way to the tea export market.</p>
<p>Depending upon the length of fermentation, oolong teas can be closer to green teas in terms of color and flavor, or closer to black teas. Beginners in Oolong Tea should be careful as even though flavor is only mild to medium, the tea could be very strong. Oolong tea is half-fermented and thus is relatively thick in flavor. It is hand-fired in pans to completely halt this process while preserving the fresh, open meadow aroma and flavor within the dried leaf.</p>
<p>Known more to the world as a Slimming Tea or Weight Loss Tea, Oolong is nothing more than the leaves of the camellia sinensis that have been processed a certain way. Oolong teas are the most difficult of the four types of teas to process. The many steps involved in processing tea leaves into fine tea from Taiwan is one of the reasons why Taiwan oolong tea is so valued by tea connoisseurs around the world.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://oolongteahouse.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Cup-of-Tea.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-143 aligncenter" title="Oolong Tea" src="http://oolongteahouse.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Cup-of-Tea.jpg" alt="" width="554" height="369" /></a>Incredibly, as rich in history as it is, this tea is now being touted for its health benefits, namely its effects in helping with weight loss. Oolong Tea for Weight Loss activates the enzyme in the body that is responsible for dissolving triglycerides, so it stands to reason that regular consumption of this as a Slimming Tea can be helpful in weight management by enhancing the function of fat metabolism. I have found that by simply replacing your Coffee with Oolong Weight Loss Tea that you will feel more energetic and start losing a few kilo&#8217;s. Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to add a comment. All the best, Ming.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Generally, <strong>Oolong Tea</strong> Weight Loss Tea gives off great benefits to the human body and mind. The compounds found in oolong tea  have been known as great healing substances since ancient times. For instance, the tannins may help in keeping the balance of good and bad cholesterol in the body. Also, Oolong Tea has components that can help in raising metabolic rates and the rate of burning fats in the body; thus, aiding in natural weight loss. </p>
<p>So what about  Oolong Tea negative side effects? It may have side effects that each of us tea drinkers should know about. After all, everything that we take in excess may affect our bodies adversely. Nevertheless, it is important to note that since tea is all-natural and is carefully processed in the most organic way possible, the side effects may cause little or no discomfort to you at all.</p>
<p>The first possible side effect of drinking oolong wu yi tea excessively is the level of caffeine that your body has to endure. Of course, there is ultimately more caffeine in coffee, and even chocolate, that you will probably have consumed all kinds of tea in 3 or 4 cups every day to really suffer this caffeine drawback. In rare cases, too much of caffeine can make you resistant to insulin, creates sleeping problems, and may lower your metabolism. In even more rare cases, one might suffer from caffeine toxicity, called Hypokalimia, a condition that may result in death.</p>
<p>Additionally, if you are pregnant, or breastfeeding a young baby, your doctor would already have told you to limit your intake of caffeine, whether in coffee, tea, sodas, or other products that contain it. Aside from the fact that caffeine is a natural diuretic (which means you will be going to the bathroom more than ever), high caffeine levels in the body may be a factor to miscarriages and small infants.</p>
<p>Lastly, it contains traces of oxalates, which have been liked to kidney diseases and damages (like kidney stones, for instance). There are more benefits in drinking wu yi tea than negative effects, except if you drown yourself in it. This is because Oolong Weight Loss Tea is all natural. What is more dangerous are the tea extracts that claim to have infused their products with more of the good stuff. For example, a tea product that claims to have over 600 milligrams of the tannin polyphenol in it may actually cause faster weight loss. However, it also poses a higher risk of damage in the body, specifically the intestines, the liver, and the kidneys. In the end, overdosing on the presumably beneficial compounds that are found in Oolong Weight Loss Tea, or any other tea for that matter, may cause irreparable damage. Hepatoxicity is one of those. Another, more saddening occurrence is infant leukemia. Chromosomal damage could also be a result of too much intake of the compounds mentioned. Thus, a word of caution: moderation. A new diet celebrities are currently raving about is the Oolong Tea Diet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s Ming here with a run down on <strong>Oolong Tea</strong> for Weight Loss. Tea is the most popular beverage in the world and was first consumed by the Chinese Emperor Shen-Nung around 2737 B.C.  China had started growing tea shrubs as early as five to six thousand years ago and is referred to it as the homeland of tea. From the hundreds of varieties of Chinese tea, six of them are the major ones. Oolong Tea is amongst the six famous types. It is a partially fermented traditional Chinese tea and tastes somewhere between green and black tea and combines the best qualities of both. After being picked, the tea leaves are withered to remove moisture. Then the leaves are left to dry in the shade before the semi-fermentation process begins.</p>
<p>Oolong, is refreshing and delicious and has a range of aromas and tastes quite distinct from green or black tea. Oolong tea is rich in antioxidants called polyphenols that prevents cancer, keep the heart healthy and aid in general well being. There are also some researches that say that Oolong tea can help in weight loss and prove useful in bodybuilding. It has now become well known as a weight loss tea. It is also known to help in lowering cholesterol. Oolong tea is good for the teeth because of its antibacterial properties and can reduce flatulence. The term Oolong or is literally &#8216;black dragon&#8217; or &#8220;black snake&#8221; in Chinese, but has nothing to do with dragons or snakes in the literal sense.</p>
<p>In more popular in recent years because of its ability to help in weight loss. A Japanese journal claims that this tea can increase the body&#8217;s ability to burn fat. This declaration has increased the demand of Oolong, but it remains scarce in supply. Oolong Tea Weight Loss can be found easily in Chinese markets and most health food shops. Oolong tea is also most commonly served in Chinese restaurants with food. It is also available all over the globe due to its health benefits and recognized as a world famous natural health drink.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi it&#8217;s Ming here and I wanted to share with you some of the qualities to look out for in <strong>Oolong Tea </strong>Weight Loss Tea. Three Measures For Judging Quality in this remarkable Chinese  Tea</p>
<p>1. The best Oolong tea never becomes bitter, no matter how long it is infused. It is true that some good Dan Cong oolong can have some bitterness that is sought after, especially by locals, but the better Dan Cong oolongs are sweeter and more smooth. A rich flavor through multiple infusions and a long aftertaste should be expected from all oolong teas.</p>
<p>2. With Anxi, Taiwan, Dan Cong, most leaves should not be damaged and should look reasonably whole once they are infused and unfold. Because Rock Oolong tea undergoes multiple stages of roasting, its leaves can be expected to be brittle and usually less than whole.</p>
<p>3. After making the Oolong tea, the leaves should be tender, pliable and look fresh. The leaves should not be chewy, old and thick &#8211; this is evidence of a very late picking.</p>
<p>Shapes and flavors of regional oolong are far from consistent. Shifting market preferences may quite literally reshape an oolong tea. As recently as 1995, Anxi oolong was not curled as we know it today, but looked much more like the dark, open leaf Rock Oolong tea from Wu Yi Shan. In the first decade of this century, greener, lightly oxidized tea have come into popularity. What we are examining is the the ascendancy of newly developed Taiwanese manufacturing techniques and a market preference for tea that delivers highly floral aromatics. Even more recently, aged oolong tea has become popular. Perhaps this can be explained as a backlash against the highly aromatic and lightly oxidized oolongs, or perhaps because a surge of interest in aging teas caused by the puer market boom. Regardless of why, aging oolong tea is not a long standing traditional practice of experts but is rather a practice of rural Chinese who have kept aged oolong tea (not to mention white tea and black tea as well) for its medicinal cooling quality.</p>
