Around our house we’re big time tea drinkers. Not only do I love the taste but I love the health benefits that tea has. When I heard about green tea matcha powder, I became intrigued to learn more about it. So I researched some of the health benefits to matcha poweder vs. conventional green tea. Here’s what I learned…
Matcha Powder provides the following:
- MILD STEADY ENERGY – it acts both as a stimulant and a relaxant. This is ideal for focusing on whatever the day throws your way.
- METABOLISM BOOST- Consuming matcha green tea can increase thermogenesis (the body’s own rate of burning calories) from a normal 8%-10% of daily energy expenditure, to between 35% and 43% of daily energy expediture.
- IMPROVED SKIN HEALTH – Scientists have discovered that Matcha Green Tea helps protect the skin from harmful UVrays, while improving blood flow and oxygen levels lifting the overall quality of the skin.
- UP TO 137x THE ANTIOXIDANTS OF BREWED GREEN TEA – Antioxidants are essential as you age to boost your body’s natural defenses against oxidation. Researchers have found that a high level of dietary antioxidants can prevent many age-related diseases.
So I decided to try it! Once I received the powder, I thought the quality of the powder was great as you only need a tiny bit of it to make an aromatic and strong cup of tea. Which means the tin will last a long time!! Once I made the tea I really enjoyed the smooth taste and the earthy smell. The tea also has a very clean, fresh aftertaste and I loved the energy boost I felt after just one cup! The tea comes with a free recipe guide that is full of great ideas for healthy snacks and drinks. I’m going to try the green tea latte! yum!
