There are many reasons why this powerful tea is replacing coffee and other infusions.
MAIN BENEFITS OF MATCHA GREEN TEA
Matcha is the food with the highest concentration of EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) in the world.
The main reason Matcha tea is superior to traditional green tea in terms of health benefits is that those who drink Matcha consume the whole leaf rather than an infusion in water. One glass of Matcha green tea equals 10 glasses of regular tea in terms of nutrients.
According to scientific research, one serving of Matcha contains 137 times more of the antioxidant Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) than an infusion of regular green tea (Weiss & Anderton, Determination of catechins in matcha green tea by micellar electrokinetic chromatography, 2003. Colorado Springs: Department of Chemistry, University of Colorado).
EGCG
It has been shown to be effective in fighting many forms of cancer, cardiovascular disease and other illnesses.
Stimulating and energizing
Matcha green tea provides an energy boost while also delivering much less caffeine per cup than coffee. You can enjoy up to 6 hours of clean energy without the jitters, nausea and dreaded crash associated with highly caffeinated drinks.
Fat burning
Matcha green tea has unique thermogenic properties that almost quadruple fat burning.
Relaxing
Regular green tea is recommended for those who suffer from anxiety or insomnia. Matcha contains much more L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes relaxation and well-being in the brain, than other green or black teas.
Detoxifying
Matcha green tea leaves are high in chlorophyll, a natural detoxifier that helps eliminate heavy metals and other toxins from the body.
Builds immunity
The catechins in Matcha tea have antibiotic properties that stimulate the immune system. In addition, Matcha also contains a number of essential vitamins, including calcium, iron, potassium, protein and vitamins A and C.
Fights aging
The antioxidants, catechins and vitamins A, C, B complex and K in Matcha can help slow the aging process by fighting oxidation and inflammation.
Skin care
High in antioxidants, Matcha helps care for your skin. It is known to protect against skin spots. It helps prevent and repair sun UV damage. It reduces scars, acne, redness and rosacea.
Improves memory and concentration
L-theanine also increases the production of dopamine and serotonin, which help improve mood and increase memory and concentration.
Lowers cholesterol
Matcha's catechins can help reduce fatty acids and cholesterol in blood lipid levels. It also slows the oxidation of LDL, or "bad" cholesterol.
Helps mitigate type 2 diabetes
Scientific research found that Matcha has beneficial effects on kidney and liver damage through renal suppression, accumulation and reduction in hepatic glucose, triglycerides and total cholesterol levels, and in antioxidant activities. Therefore, daily consumption of Matcha could have beneficial effects in controlling obesity and type 2 diabetes. (Yamabe, Kang, Hur, & Yokozawa, 2009.
