How Weight Loss Tea Can Help You Slim Down

Posted on June 19, 2011 by piscator

Weight loss tea has been in the news a lot lately. Many companies offer weight loss tea that they claim are guaranteed to help you shed unwanted pounds and inches. However, many people may be wondering how it works and whether it is safe and effective. Here is a look at how slimming tea may be able to help you take weight off as well as what you need to do to make the weight loss regiment as effective as possible.

Weight loss tea often uses a combination of different teas and herbs in order to enhance the process of losing weight. Oolong tea, which is often a main component, is also often referred to as wulong tea depending on the Chinese dilate used by the tea consumers. Different from the un-fermented green teas, oolong teas are partially fermented and have stronger flavours without the grassy taste that some green teas possess.

The herbs used in slimming tea blends, such as lotus leaf and hawthorn fruit, are to enhance the slimming effect as well as the flavour. Some also use green tea in place of Oolong tea.

For example, the Natural Shape – Lotus Leaf Herbal Tea (manufactured by Valley Green Tea) works by: lowering calorie intake through apatite change (increasing interest in healthy food such as fruits and vegetables than high energy food); increasing metabolism rate and reducing energy absorption in the intestinal system. The metabolic increase will often last for some time after the tea has been consumed.

Weight loss tea can be especially beneficial if the tea drinking is accompanied by some other lifestyle changes such as eating smaller meals on a more regular basis to prevent extreme hunger and eating regular portion sizes to avoid oversupply. Finally, increasing the amount of physical activities can also help to make your whole weight loss regiment more effective.

There can be many other health benefits of drinking weight loss herbal tea than merely a reduction in body weight, especially when replacing high-sugar or caffeine drinks. Many herbs used in the slimming tea contain high levels of antioxidants, such as lotus leaf and Jiao-Gu-Lan. The cholesterol lowering effect helps to reduce the change of cardio-vascular diseases and diabetes. Tea drinkers also report increased energy level due to more efficient metabolism and relief of bloating and constipation as a result of enhanced digestive function.

You can find weight loss tea online on many different websites but you need to make sure that the ingredients are safe and effective. It is always wise to research the individual herbal components to make sure that you will not have a bad reaction to any of them. Buying oolong tea and slimming tea online can be convenient, especially when you can read other consumers reviews to find out how it works for others (that is only if they are not copied, pasted and edited or ‘artificially constructed’).

If you are looking for a reputable supplier for oolong tea and weight loss tea , check out Valley Green Tea. They offer these teas and other varieties as well that are delicious and affordable.
