Different things have different effects. Pu-erh tea produces varying results depending on how it is brewed and consumed.

Brewing Pu-erh tea promotes sleep, while steeping it causes insomnia

Though the difference in brewing methods is subtle, the outcomes are vastly different. Drinking brewed Pu-erh tea before bed—where the tea leaves are separated from the water after infusion—helps calm the mind and improves sleep. In contrast, steeping the tea leaves for too long has the opposite effect.

Drinking Pu-erh tea after meals aids weight loss, while drinking it before meals promotes weight gain

Many people drink Pu-erh tea to lose weight, but timing is crucial. Consuming it half an hour after a meal helps eliminate excess fat. However, drinking it half an hour before a meal may increase appetite and lead to weight gain, as it breaks down stored fat and stimulates digestion.
