Health benefits
Oolong tea can help with losing weight and lowering cholesterol, according to both Western and Traditional Chinese medicine. This could be because it stimulates metabolism. It can also reduce stress and increase mental alertness. Oolong tea is partially oxidized, in levels from a wide spectrum from 8%-85%, so the vitamins and minerals range widely depending on the type of oolong.
