Oolong and Green Tea Weight Loss- What's the hype!?

.

To say it simply, tea is good for you! Like coffee, the tea leaf is loaded with antioxidants. Oolong teas are recognizable by their stout, crinkled, rolled leaf style while green tea is noted by its, well, plain green tea appearance. History and legend record Ti Kuan Yin Oolongs and naturally processed green teas from the Shanghai region as a beverage that will curve hunger when drank throughout the day. Both Green Tea and Oolong are noted to reduce the body's absorption of dietary fats and cholesterol, while also boosting metabolism.

Facts About Tea

.

-All types of tea come from the “Camellia” plant. However the climate, soil conditions, altitude, and how the tea is processed, is what determines flavor of the tea.  

-The Camellia plant was first cultivated in China and was later found growing wild in India.  

-India is the world's largest tea producer.  

-It takes three to five years for the Camellia plant to grow mature enough for plucking.  

-Withering, Firing, Oxidation, Grading/Sorting, and Packing are the four steps in manufacturing tea.  

-Roots, stems, fruit, flowers and parts of plants are used to make herbal tea. Herbal tea does not come from the leaves of a tea plant, therefore, is not considered to be "tea" and is most often without caffeine.  

-White tea, the rarest type of tea, comes from young tea leaves that are picked before the buds have fully opened.  

-Approximately 40% of the nation's fluid intake today will be tea.  

-According to the Tea Council of Canada, Canadians drink over 7 billion cups of tea each year. They also report that 9 out of 10 Canadians drink tea.  

-1.5 billion cups of tea are enjoyed throughout the world every day.
