Who doesn’t like to drink tea? Apart from its rich health benefits, tea has a natural flavor that fits into anyone’s taste bud. However, enjoying tea in the same way over and over again can certainly bore you. Not to worry, Organic Oolong Tea has a unique flavor that will revive your addiction to this amazing drink!
Forget about buying tea in a fancy cafe, you can make your own ‘cuppa’ tea at home by using Organic Oolong Tea. Oolong tea, which originated from China, has a distinctive feature due to its high content of antioxidant. Oolong tea undergoes a unique manufacturing process that intensifies the antioxidant contained in the tea, resulting in more antioxidant content than green tea and red tea.
What are the benefits of this Chinese native tea? Below are the advantages of consuming Oolong Tea provided by nutrition expert Emilia E. Achmadi MS., RD.
1. Helps to dissolve body fat
The consumption of fatty foods will lead to an emulsification process, a process that breaks down fat with the help of enzymes. Fat then absorbed into the body. Oolong tea provides an antioxidant component called polyphenols. It serves to separate enzymes and fat, leaving fat unabsorbed by the body. “So, fat is not absorbed by the body, but removed from the body. Indeed, not all fat is lost but at least partially. Oolong helps in removing fat in food,” said Emilia.
2. Assists in calories burning
Consuming oolong tea helps you in burning more calories. Drinking a cup (150 ml) of oolong tea burns away 25 until 30 calories. Every 240 ml of this tea burn 40 calories. This is equivalent a 10 minutes jogging for a person who weigh 45 kg.
3. Maintains skin health
Polyphenols contained in oolong tea is very good for skin health. Consumption of this tea regularly can help protect the skin from the horrible effects of UV rays. It can also balance the amount of oil contained in your skin. ” There are two benefits to the skin when you consume oolong tea routinely. First the polyphenols will rise to the surface of the skin to protect it from damage caused by ultraviolet light. Second, it balances the oil production in your skin. Simply moisten but not excessive,” said nutrition expert who daily practices in Clinic Cardiovascular Cinere, Jakarta.
4. Strengthens teeth
Oolong tea is also good for maintaining dental health. It is well known that oolong tea contains fluoride which is useful for strengthening teeth and preventing cavities.
5. Protects your stomach
Oolong tea contains antioxidant L-theanine that protects the stomach wall. This antioxidant also minimizes the possibility of bloating due to excess production of stomach acid.
6. Improves concentration
Oolong tea contains a little caffeine. Consuming small or moderate amount of caffeine stimulates the nervous system function, resulting in better focus and concentration.
Despite the wonderful effects, the consumption of oolong tea still should not be excessive. As explained by Emilia, healthy and useful things would be no good if consumed excessively. The advised amount of consumption is three cups or about 500 ml a day, in order to get maximum health benefits.
