Inhibit Digestive Enzyme
Oolong tea can inhibit several digestive enzymes, thus aiding in weight loss. In general, our body digests carbs and fats with the help of these enzymes, such as glucosidase, amylase, and lipase. They are responsible for breaking down nutrients in the digestive tracks, making it easier for the body to absorb smaller elements into the bloodstream. Polyphenols in oolong tea can reduce the activity of these enzymes and slow down the breakdown of carbs and fats in the body. This means the body will absorb fewer calories and help you lose weight more effectively. [3]
