Does Oolong Tea help you lose weight?

Question

I heard that Oolong tea can help assist you with a safe diet to lose weight. Does anyone know what foods I should eat while drinking the oolong tea to promote weight loss?

Answer 1

Well, it works as a diuretic. (Helps promote bowl movement and assist in cleaning the liver.) So, pretty good for you. You wouldnt lose much weight off of it though, unless you follow with diet and exercise regimen.
Add more fruit, veggies, and whole fibers to your diet.
Oatmeal, preferably organic can be used alternately with fruits and whole wheat bagel for breakfast. Salad,with light dressing, and maybe a bowl of soup, for lunch. Top off dinner with some nice protein, lean, like chicken or fish. If you are veggie, then tofu is a good source of protein. (Just an example of some of the things you can eat.)
Cut out soda, drink at least eight glasses of water a day. Skim milk has been proven good for weight loss, or if you don't like plain milk, yogurt. If you like to drink juice, its better to juice your own, because most juice has entirely too much sugar in it. Leafy greens, legumes, etc. Oh, and a little tip, stay away from the Gatorade and powerade, they say it may actually cause you to gain weight if you are not sweating much. Also, if you can, its always good to either have someone do it with you, or join some sort of weight loss support, your chances increase significantly higher than when you go it alone.
Hope this helped!

Oolong Tea Diet

Answer 6

yes! herbal tea - (green tea, white tea, oolong/red tea) all contains polyphenols which have a range of benefits. you can get green tea which has been oxidised, black tea, completely oxidised, oolong/red tea which is semi-oxidised or white tea, unoxidised. the difference is that oxidation causes stronger concentrations of caffiene which stimulate the metabolism and therefore you lose weight.

however, unoxidised or less oxidised tea, if you drink it before you eat, causes your insulin levels to rise which burns fat. also, drinking any sort of chinese/japanese herbal tea 15 minutes before eating increases energy expenditure 10%. if you drink tea immediately after eating, you burn an extra 10% of fats. also, note that green tea has only 4 calories per cup!

Also, it is believed that the polyphenols in tea seem to aid in the digestion of fat, truly making it a Chinese diet tea.

also, Japanese researchers claim if you drink five cups of green tea a day, you'll burn 70 to 80 extra calories. Dr. Nicholas Perricone, an anti-aging specialist, appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show and told Oprah's viewers they can lose 10 lbs. in 6 weeks drinking green tea instead of coffee

not to mention herbal tea has a wide range of health benefits - i.e women drinking 4-6 cups a day have 46% less chance of getting ovarian cancer, it's an anti-aging substance - notice how women in asia have beautiful skin and look years younger?

green tea burns up calories and stimulates your metabolism, provided of course, you don't add any sugar or milk or whatever. if you want green tea to work, you need to drink 4-6 cups a day and you should see results not only in your weight, but your overall body. green tea is a natural relaxer and it also helps clear your skin! herbal tea is a natural laxative, so it's very good for natural digestion.

personal experience - i was 46 kilos (l'm 5"1) and i know it's not overweight by any means lol, but then i started drinking 5+ cups a day of a variety of oolong, black, green tea etc and after about 4 months, l now only weigh 40 kilos! it's really amazing the effect it has on you, but of course, it is a long term effect and is combined with how it acts as an appetite supressant. i find drinking black tea in the morning is especially good because it increases your metabolic rate which is ideal in the morning times.

don't think about the weight loss too much, its important to enjoy the taste of the tea!!

good luck, and check out the links below, they are really helpful!

There are three main ways to lose weight quickly.

1) Use only water as liquid and eliminate all other liquid drinks from your diet. You must drink as much water as possible every day. You must drink about half of your weight. If you have weight of 200 pounds then you must drink about 100 oz of water.

2) The interval between the eating is very important. If you eat once, then you must eat next after 4 hours. You must take breakfast regularly. In the night eat your food three hours before going to bed.

3) Walking is very good. You must walk as much as you can. Walk everywhere you can. Use of elevators and escalators must be reduced and instead of these you must climb stairs more often.

These are some of the fastest ways to lose weight. By just following the simple steps, you can lose your weight very quickly. You must consult your doctor if want to change your diet or exercise routine.

Answer 8

Yes Oolong tea does help but I don't know what foods you should eat while drinking the tea.

Answer 9

No.
But the tea does keep you from drinking other things that would make you gain weight, so in a sense it does.
This is the wrong type of thinking when you go on a new fad diet.
Try to eat less, and you must exercise, no body wants to, but you have too.
