Although the ingredients list on some teas look the same, their taste is not the same. We’ve tried all versions of the teas over the years and from customer feedback they say our current Feiyan Tea tastes much better than other versions, and meets their weight loss requirements.

A: It seems that preference varies from person to person and different types work well for different customers. However, we have decided to sell only 1 type of tea so as to not confuse our customers. They know what they’re ordering and know they will get the same quality product each time they order.

A: The manufacturer recommends infusing one teabag in freshly boiled water for 5-10 minutes then drink the tea. Each teabag may be reused once. Ice cubes may be added to make a refreshing summer drink and the tea may be flavoured with sugar, honey or lemon. The tea is also suitable for drinking after meals. People using the tea as a weight loss aid rather than just for it’s health benefits can also take the tea once after every meal. This may induce a light degree of diarrohea in the first week, but this usually stops after the first week.

A: The manufacturer states that: “Taking the slimming tea for a month non-stop can cause a weight loss of 2-6 kilograms, taking two months in a row have a remarkable effect. Generally, one period of treatment is three months, after reaching your goals, you can take once every two days for maintenance.

A: The specially selected ingredients in Feiyan Tea are all natural herbs, which work by increasing metabolism (which in turn burns fat quicker), preventing blood clots and lowering cholesterol.

It is also particularly sought after by post-natal period women who aim to recover their figure, as well as patients wishing to get rid of ‘beer bellies’.

A: According to the manufacturer, the tea may induce a light degree of diarrohea in the first week, but this usually stops after the first week. If this doesn’t stop after one week, discountinue use.

A: When something is successful there are always people out there trying to copy it. We have heard of some fake versions of Feiyan Tea on the market, especially on online auction sites. They use different ingredients, or even claim use the same ingredient as genuine tea but in fact they are not the same! We have customers who asked us if we had changed the ingredients because they bought the tea from other sites and the taste are complete different. The fake tea tastes disgusting, smells like stale tobacco or creosote. If something can be sold at such a cheap price and sounds too good to be true, then I would question myself!

A: You may want to consider Pu-erh Tea or Oolong Tea. We have reports of good slimming results on both.
