Matcha is not only caffeine

The biggest benefit of coffee and other caffeine beverages is their caffeine content.  Hardly any caffeine beverage contains other ingredients that may benefit our body, and energy drinks often contain the very opposite of healthy ingredients. Matcha on the other hand, contains both caffeine and antioxidants and amino acids, but also vitamins A, E, C, little bit of iron, calcium, potassium and zinc, and just one portion of matcha contains about 30 % of fibre. If you also add fruit juice or milk to matcha, you will get a beverage overflowing with health benefits (because the water for matcha preparation should not be hotter than 70 °C, we can get maximum out of all matcha benefits).

Champion among antioxidants

The real Japanese matcha is a champion in the number of antioxidants. Just one portion of matcha has more of them than a bowl of blackberries. These antioxidants help our organism function and can help wash out toxins out of our body. It may seem improbable but those antioxidants can provide us with much needed energy in the spring. Harmful substances can keep our body occupied and rob us of our energy. If we manage to wash out those toxins, our body does not have to use its energy for fighting them and we can redirect the energy elsewhere 😊

These benefits and the high quality of the tea can only be provided by the true original Japanese teas!

Matcha will awaken your tired soul

In the emerald matcha tea, we can also find high amounts of L-theanine – a unique amino acid that helps slow down the absorption of tea caffeine and at the same time stimulates the brain, induces the feeling of intense concentration and soothes the mind. After just one cup of matcha, it becomes easier to concentrate on various tasks. You can especially appreciate this property of matcha tea after big meal – green tea is a great fighter against after-lunch fatigue as well. But it can also help during a demanding day: it quickly boosts a tired brain and the amino acids can brighten your mood!

Mighty fighter against stress

Because of theanine, matcha is a great fighter against physical and mental stress. According to some studies, it even helps produce the happiness hormones – dopamine and serotonin. Theanine can also help stimulate alpha brain waves which are associated with relaxation and mental well-being. Because matcha can improve your mental state and cheer you up, it can be the right beverage to help you overcome the spring fatigue.

It will never bore you

The amazing advantage of Matcha Tea is that you can prepare it in a million different ways. In summer, you can mix yourself a refreshing drink with a few drops of lemon, in winter, you can awaken with hot matcha and ginger, in the afternoon you can prepare  yourself matcha latte with milk, and in case you get tired of matcha drinks, you can try matcha smoothie, or add matcha into porridge, or even cereals.
