Matcha Green Tea

Posted in NUTRITION , November 13th, 2017

Whats your favourite go to hot/warm beverage? Is it coffee, some coffee version like a latte or perhaps you are a tea drinker? Well if you are looking to change things up perhaps try Matcha Green Tea. A long standing tradition of Japanese culture, Matcha Green Tea is the highest quality powdered green tea available. Made from the nutrient-rich young leaves picked from the tips of shade-grown Camellia sinensis plants, Matcha Green Tea is steamed, stemmed, and de-vined before being stone-ground into very fine powder. Matcha Green Tea powder is then stored away from light and oxygen in order to preserve its brilliant green color and antioxidant properties. This miracle elixir has been consumed for over a millennium in the Far East, and is now considered to be one of the most powerful super foods on the market today.

To some of Green Tea Matcha’s benefits we can include:

  • Hight in Antioxidants
  • Loaded with Catechin , EGCg
  • Enhances Calm
  • Boost memory and Concentration
  • Increases Energy Levels
  • Burns Calories
  • Detoxifies the Body
  • Fortifies the Immune System
  • Improves Cholesterol
  • etc

 

For that real experience instead of buying it a Davids Tea or Starbucks buy the real thing. Ideally a small kit that would include a mixing bowl and a whisk and off course green matcha. Found in some local shops or on amazon and eBay
