WuLong tea is actually a ripoff. It's just a marketing gimmick.
There are two ways to spell any word translated from Chinese to English. I can't remember the names for the two spelling styles, sorry.
One translation will spell the tea as WuLong.
The other way will spell the same word as Oolong.
WuLong tea is expensive, Oolong tea is cheap, but they are the exact same tea from the exact same place made the same way!
Oolong tea is also supposed to aid weight loss, but I don't think there is any verified science behind the claim.
If you like tea, try Oolong. I think it is very good, but I don't think it makes me skinny. It is fairly cheap through.
Best of Luck!

Is this the tea that is supposed to make you feel warm? I'd be willing to drink it just for that here in the frozen north!

Dana,

I don't know about it's other health benefits, but there is no research to document that it actually helps with weight loss. If you were going to take it for that purpose, I would save your money.

If so, tell me a little bit about it? It's some kind of slimming tea. Here is a link I found on it.. http://www.bestwulongtea.com/Home.php
