So far, the most studied function of tea is to lose weight. Whether it is green tea without fermentation or Pu 'er cooked tea with the highest fermentation degree, it is helpful to control weight.

Both American Journal of Clinical Nutrition and Pharmacology have published excellent papers on tea weight loss research. These studies point out that green tea, white tea and oolong tea with high tea polyphenols and caffeine content can improve the energy metabolism rate in the body, increase the oxidation of fat, reduce fat absorption and energy intake, and help the human body lose weight and maintain weight after losing weight.

At present, there are many kinds of slimming tea, slimming pills and slimming training camps on the market, but in fact, drinking tea can effectively lose weight, and unlike many slimming pills, drinking tea has side effects such as diarrhea.

At present, it is believed that all kinds of tea have the function of losing weight, but the mechanism is different. Green tea and Pu 'er tea are experts in weight control. If you want to exercise daily, it is recommended to drink a small can of 4 grams of green tea or Pu 'er cooked tea every day.

Although one of green tea and Pu 'er cooked tea is unfermented and the other is almost completely fermented, the components contained in both of them have obvious effects of maintaining weight, which is also the magic of China tea.

If you are overweight, you can increase the consumption of tea, such as drinking 2 small cans of 8 grams of tea every day, or choosing an enhanced version of green tea with higher content-Pu 'er raw tea. But it should be noted that both green tea and raw tea are cool. If you have chronic gastritis or gastric ulcer, Pu 'er cooked tea should be the first choice.

Chrysanthemum, honeysuckle, rose, hawthorn and lotus leaf can all be combined with tea to help keep a good figure.

Among them, the amount of chrysanthemum, honeysuckle, rose and hawthorn can be determined according to personal taste, and they all have strong symbolic taste, which may mask the original taste of tea, especially the fresh fragrance of green tea.

For consumers who are not used to the strong "warehouse flavor" of Pu 'er cooked tea at first, adding these flowers and fruits may be a better choice.

Chrysanthemum Pu 'er tea and rose Pu 'er tea are the signature teas of many restaurants.

Lotus leaf is strong in medicinal properties, cool in nature and easy to cause diarrhea. It is recommended to add a small amount, and it is enough to take out about 2 grams with tea every day.

When brewing, the main effective components such as catechins in green tea and raw tea can be released quickly, but the functional components that play a role in losing weight in Pu 'er cooked tea or raw tea often need to be brewed more thoroughly. Therefore, it is suggested to extend the brewing time of Laoshengpu or Pu 'er cooked tea appropriately, or make it several times more. From this point of view, the cooking method is a better choice, which can release the effective ingredients more fully and has a good taste and aroma.

It should be emphasized that reducing fat and losing weight is a "systematic project". Although drinking tea can play a certain auxiliary role, it is the key to "keep your mouth shut and open your legs". In addition, any health food, including tea, is not the better. This doesn't mean that the more you drink, the faster you will lose weight. Too much tea (or drinking water) or too much tea extract will increase the metabolic burden and produce side effects.
