The article mentioned the different health benefits of drinking different type of tea. It said, if you want to lose weight, you should be drinking Oolong tea.
I thought, really? All the while, I thought green tea is the best tea to drink when you want to lose weight. Hmmm..interesting.
Complimentary Green tea and instant coffee at Sofitel. Of course, I drank the tea.
When I got home, I googled some more and I got different opinions from tea experts all over the world. Some say Green tea is still better compared to Oolong tea. And some say otherwise.
Ever since I started drinking tea, I drank Green tea only mainly because of the health benefits associated with it. Even if it's a little bitter compared to the other tea I still chose it and I've come to love drinking it.
But now, I think I am going to shift to Oolong tea. It is not because I found out it's much superior compared to Green tea in the weight loss and maintenance department. In fact, tea experts are still divided with this issue.
I am shifting to Oolong tea because it tastes much better compared to Green tea. I could drink it like water! With Green tea, I could only drink a maximum of three cups a day because it leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.
One tea may be better than the other but I don't care that much anymore. Besides, both tea come from the same plant, Camellia Sinensis. The only difference is the way they are processed.
All I know now is that I love drinking tea more than ever!

Hello!
I know what you mean. I am a tea lover as well.
I love all types of tea, being black and oolong my favourites.
Oolong tea is indeed quite healthy and one of the best weight loss teas.
The good thing is that it also improves digestion and dissolves excess acidity and it reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases!
Which Oolong tea are you drinking? Tie Guan Yin is quite good! Have you tried it?
