Answer:
Oolong is a rare and wonderful tea. All tea is
derived from the same plant known as Camellia Sinensis
which includes Green, Black and Oolong tea. Any other
teas are "herbal" and come from a variety of other plants.
Oolong tea is referred to as "semi-oxidized." Oolong
tea is in the middle of Green tea and Black tea in terms of
the oxidation process. Oxidation refers to the process
of drying the tea leaves.
Answer:
We supply only the finest, highest grade, 100% Natural
Oolong tea available, well known for its superior taste and
aroma.
Answer:
Tremendous skill and dedication is involved in the
harvesting and processing of Oolong tea.
Several arduous steps are involved in this time consuming
process. Leaves must be picked at their "peak", mature
and fully grown. As the oxidation process begins, the
tea leaves are carefully monitored. Timing is
extremely important in creating what is referred to as a
"semi-oxidized" tea. Highly skilled workers or "Tea
Masters" monitor the tea leaves to determine when to stop
the oxidation process. The leaves are then rolled and
spread out to dry.
Answer:
Oolong tea has a delicious, distinctive flavor. It is
more like Green tea in taste, than Black tea. However,
unlike Green tea that can sometimes taste tart and grassy,
Oolong tea is always pleasing.
Answer:
Oolong tea is grown throughout the year. Depending on
the season, the flavors of the tea may change. Spring
and winter harvests tend to produce the most superior teas
due to the cooler temperatures and seasonal fog,
creating more robust flavored teas.
Answer:
Oolong tea has several names. These include of course,
Oolong as well as Wu-long and Wulong. However, these
names all refer to the same tea.
Answer:
The term "Oolong" is derived from an ancient Chinese legend
and means "black dragon." The legend describes the
story of an old man who stumbled upon some drying tea leaves
and believed that they resembled the appearance of a black
snake. A few days later, the frightened man returned
and to his delight, realized that it was really dried tea
leaves. According to legend, this is how Oolong tea
was "discovered" and how we can now enjoy this distinctive,
delicious tea drink today.

Answer:

OolongExpress
tea, however, is the real thing. Although there
are no "miracles" to losing weight, Oolong tea has been
proven thru numerous scientific studies as well as countless
testimonials from people just like you who have experienced
the amazing weight loss results. Oolong tea has
existed for centuries in Asian cultures where people have
benefited greatly from its numerous health-enhancing
benefits, including being an effective aid in maintaining a
healthy weight. Oolong tea also has almost zero
calories and can replace all those fattening high calorie
drinks you may be currently drinking.
Answer:
Oolong tea is an amazing fat burner. The fact
that Oolong tea increases your metabolism, resulting in
increased fat and calorie burning has been shown in numerous
studies. A Japanese study at The Tokushima School of
Medicine in 2003 concluded that drinking one cup of Oolong
tea resulted in the test subjects burning twice as much fat
as those who drank Green tea.
Additionally, the Oolong tea-drinking subjects burned up to
8 1/2 times more fat when compared to non-tea drinkers!
This means that by adding Oolong tea to your diet, you may
have the ability to burn up to 850% more fat!
In 2006, Japanese researchers concluded that drinking Oolong
tea after meals reduced fat absorption of the foods eaten.
They found that lipids (fats) were passed thru the body in
the stool at a higher rate when compared to participants who
did not drink tea with their meals.
Answer:
All of this amazing fat burning is due to the high levels of
"polyphenols", naturally found in Oolong tea. Studies
have found that polyphenols dissolve "triglycerides"(a type
of fat stored by the body) by activating the appropriate
enzyme. Excessive triglycerides are stored within the
body's fat cells and accumulate causing weight gain.
The antioxidant power of the polyphenols found in
OolongExpress
tea enable your body to burn up these triglycerides as
energy rather than storing than as body fat! This is
what makes Oolong tea such a powerful weight loss tool for
you to have included along with a healthy diet.
We all lose weight through two specific methods. One
involves a metabolic increase, which means more energy
expenditure (EE). The second method involves the body
absorbing fewer nutrients such as fat and carbohydrates.
Oolong tea has been shown in studies to increase energy
expenditure (EE) and inhibit absorption of carbohydrates and
fats, resulting in weight loss.
Answer:
Polyphenols are naturally occuring compounds found in tea
leaves, also known as antioxidants. They include:
epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), epigallocatechin,
epicatechin gallate, and epicatechin. Polyphenols help
in the metabolism of fats. In other words, they help
to rev up your metabolism, which results in quicker weight
loss. Polyphenols include flavanoids.
Answer:
First of all, we need to define what "free radicals" are and
how they cause us to develop signs of aging such as
wrinkles.
Free radicals come from our everyday environment from things
like processed foods, smoking, excessive sun exposure and
pollution. We really can't completely avoid them but
we can lessen our exposure and do things that will help our
body to fight the damage caused by free radicals. The
polyphenol antioxidants found in Oolong tea are powerful
anti-aging compounds that fight and destroy free radicals,
thus helping you to have clearer skin and fewer wrinkles.
We all know green vegetables such as broccoli are good
sources of antioxidants. But did you know that one cup
of Oolong tea contains more polyphenols than a serving of
broccoli!
Answer:
The difference is due to the processing and oxidation
involved. Green is the color of all tea when it is
first picked. However the difference occurs when Green
tea is heated to stop the natural oxidation process of the
leaf from occurring, whereas Oolong tea is allowed to
semi-oxidize. Additionally, Oolong tea leaves are not
broken as is the case with Green tea; therefore the leaf
cell structure is left intact. Oolong tea also has a
longer shelf life and less moisture than Green tea as a
result of the higher heating temperatures after oxidation.
Answer:
This is due to the fact that Oolong tea is "semi-oxidized".
Black tea is a fully oxidized tea and Green tea is
un-oxidized, so Oolong maintains characteristics of both
Green and Black tea!
As a result, Oolong tea has higher levels of naturally
occurring antioxidants found in all teas, which include
polyphenols, catechins and teaflavin tearubigin. The
result is a Oolong tea that is a powerful weight loss
catalyst, accelerating the metabolism and calorie burning
ability of the body.
Answer:
The Asian culture has always valued tea not only as a
delicious beverage but also as a highly regarded drink for
its medicinal value. Today, modern scientific studies
have been conducted that indicate that Oolong tea indeed
possesses many body healthy benefits. Some of these benefits
include:
Heart Health - Studies indicate that Oolong tea consumption
may reduce inflammation that leads to arteriosclerosis and
help lower cholesterol, which can reduce risk of heart
attack.
Dental Health - Drinking Oolong tea on a regular basis has
been shown to reduce calories and strengthen tooth enamel
against acidic elements.
Bone Density Health - Studies indicate a link between
regular tea consumption and greater bone density in older
women.
Cancer Prevention - Tea flavonoids protect the body's cells
from free radical damage by acting as antioxidants.
Studies have shown that flavanoids can block and deactivate
certain enzymes and substances that cancer needs in order to
grow. Studies also show a link between regular tea
consumption and lower rates of cancer.
Digestive Health - Habitual tea drinking has been shown to
be healthy for the digestive system by helping the body rid
itself of bad bacteria.
