Wu Long Tea

My wife is about to order Wu Long tea. Does anyone know if it is any
good? I have heard of Oolong tea , but not Wu Long. She said she heard
about it on Oprah. This is where she was going to order from:

I thought Oprah's tea was this one--

I just started drinking it this week. It's good--and smells
heavenly--but I seriously doubt my stomach will EVER look like that ;-D

The key to this, like every "miracle", is "along with a healthy diet and
exercise program". Can't hurt, and in the long run, it's cheaper than
Starbuck's....

I checked out the tea at the "tea" discussion group.
They said that "slimming" teas generally had some additive that acted
as a laxitive in it. The Wu Long, had cinnamon added which the
Chinese use as a bowel stimulant. They said to be very cautious of
thinking that any tea would cause you to lose the weight without
exercise. That said , teas can be filling and fine antioxidants. Just
make sure you dont ruin them with sugar and cream or eat a piece of
cake or pie while drinking. Heck.. no cake or pie kinda ruins it for
me! LOL
