Answer: WuLong is an extraordinarily rare, delicately fermented form of oolong (also known as WuLong) tea that the Chinese have been using to promote weight loss and overall health for more than 400 years.

Our WuLong tea has only one ingredient: 100% pure, premium oolong tea leaves. It is completely natural, and there are never any additives or preservatives.

Answer: Our WuLong tea supports weight loss by naturally increasing metabolism, and helping to turn your food into fuel.*

WuLong contains a large quantity of polyphenols and EGCG. These powerful antioxidants have been shown to naturally raise metabolism and increase fat burning. In addition, WuLong has been shown to help regulate blood sugar spikes, which can help to avoid unhealthy cravings.*

A 2001 study published in the Journal of Nutrition concluded that drinking regular amounts of oolong tea not only increases metabolic rate, but also increased fat oxidation in its subjects. This study showed a 12% increase in fat oxidation over a 24-hour period after drinking the tea, and an overall significant increase in energy expenditure (EE)*

Answer: In China, tea has historically been used as a medicine. Many studies 1, 2, 3 have been carried out up to the present day about the effects of tea, including its natural weight loss benefits, which is common knowledge in China. A Chinese classical pharmaceutical book called the Bencao Shiyi (The Compendium of Materia Medica) states, “Drinking tea for a long time will make one live long and stay in good shape without becoming too fat and too heavy.”

Why does weight gain occur? Among other food items taken into your body through meals every day, sugar and fat are synthesized into triglyceride in the liver and the small intestine, which are then carried in the bloodstream and distributed throughout various tissues in the body. Triglyceride fat is the level of fat contained in the human body and is used as a source of energy for life support and physical activities. Excess amounts of triglyceride will be deposited within fat cells, which results in weight gain.

A study by International Journal of Obesity2 found polyphenol, which is the main tea antioxidant contained within WuLong tea, is effective in controlling body fat. Specifically, it activates the enzyme that is responsible for dissolving triglyceride. Regular intake of this kind of tea can contribute to enhancing the function of fat metabolism and to controlling obesity.

Studies were conducted to verify the effect of this kind of tea on the prevention of body fatness. In one study, lab animals were divided into three groups: One was a control group that was given normal feed and water; another was given high-calorie feed containing extra fat and water; while the third group was given the same kind of high-calorie feed but with this kind of tea as a drink. All the animals weighed the same before the experiments but weighed differently six weeks later according to their groups. The two groups of high-calorie-fed animals gained more weight than the control group with the normal feed, and no weight difference was observed between the two groups of high-calorie-fed animals.

But when the fat cells of the two groups of animals were compared, the quantity of the visceral fat and that of the subcutaneous fat of the group of animals that were given WuLong tea was smaller than that of the other group. It was also proven that even when animals were given fatty food, if they were also given this kind of tea, they were prevented from becoming obese without any effect on their growth.

In another clinical test, 75 overweight individuals between 22 and 68 years of age were asked to consume a drink made by infusing two packs of this kind of tea in water, once in the morning and once in the afternoon for six weeks. They were also asked to refrain from receiving any dietary treatment or taking any exercise.

Echography sensors were placed at a spot 3 cm to the right of the naval of each of the subjects to measure the thickness of their subcutaneous fat. Compared with readings before the test, the thickness of subcutaneous fat decreased by about 4 mm on average after completion of the study.

In another study published in the August 2003 edition of the Journal of Medical Investigation, scientists from Japan’s University of Tokushima School of Medicine3 found that people who drank two cups a day of this kind of tea experienced 2.5 times greater calorie-burning results than those who drank the same amount of authentic Japanese green tea.

Answer: Our WuLong has a very long shelf life. If stored properly, it can be safe to use for many years from the date you receive it. Be sure to keep it somewhere dry, cool, and out of sunlight.  We ship our Wulong Oolong teas in sealed packages.  Teas only start degrading once they are exposed to oxygen. Teas will never expire, but the potency of the tea can be lost over significant time, so store you tea in a cool and dry place.  Experts say once the tea package is opened and exposed to oxygen, the shelp life is about 2 years for maximum flavor and potentcy.

Answer: While many enjoy our WuLong on its own, there is nothing wrong with adding to its flavor. Of course, if you add to our WuLong, choose your sweetener wisely. A good rule of thumb is to keep it natural. Lemon or honey can be very delicious and nutritious. Avoid sugar and instead opt for Stevia, a zero calorie, natural sweetener.
