  I think oolong tea can help you.

  But the main thing you should focus on if you want to lose weight is the food you eat.

  (Because Food could either make you Thin or Fat..)

  Hi There…..Hang on I have answered this before somewhere, let me find it……….

  Here it is…..

  There are more and more teas claiming to do all sorts of clever stuff for fat loss.Most of these new tea products on the internet claiming to be a miracle cure for fat loss are nothing but plain old oolong tea. Some brands may have other teas mixed in too, but most I've seen are just oolong tea.

  The "Wu" in their names is just their clever way of making you think this is some new secret tea discovery.

  Basically they just sell you oolong tea for outrageous prices, when you can go to your local grocery store or health food store and get a whole box of oolong tea for about £2 .

  But beyond the outrageously marked up price, does oolong tea actually help with fat loss?

  Well, the answer is… slightly.

  Personally I do recommend including a mixture of green tea, white tea, oolong tea, and black tea in your daily schedule to possibly help a slight bit with fat loss.

  The fact of it is that drinking tea is not going to miraculously transform your body or "melt off bodyfat". It can have a slight thermogenic effect and possibly help you burn a few extra calories. Plus, there are tons of other benefits too, many of which are due to the high antioxidant content of teas.

  However, let's get real… whether you drink tea or not isn't one of those major factors in how fast you're going to burn off body fat… it's just a very minor detail. The real factors are your lifestyle as a whole, your type of exercise program and intensity, the quality of your diet, and your lifestyle

  So what I'd recommend is…

  Don't waste your money on the overpriced, overhyped Wu-teas that claim to be a miracle fat loss cure. I do recommend including white, green, black, and oolong teas in your diet for their numerous health benefits, but you can get them MUCH cheaper (sometimes at least 10x cheaper!) at your local grocery store instead.

  Hope this helps
