Extracts in oolong tea burn up fat and provide endurance. Excess fat contributes to chronic conditions like diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. The antioxidants in oolong tea boost metabolism up to two hours after drinking it. Fat is burned as fuel during a metabolism boost, providing muscle endurance. Scientific speculation says that regular green tea consumption lowers the risk of metabolic syndrome, which can cause diabetes, stroke and artery disease.
