Matcha Magic
I think i have a crush on this green matcha powder... Matcha o Maccha is a finely ground, bright emerald-green tea powder in a very concentrated version. Therefore packed with essential vitamins and minerals. Matcha tea bushes are grown under shade which dramatically increases the chlorophyll and amino acid content of the leaf – lots of good stuff.
When you drink regular green tea, you throw away the leaves afterwards which is a bit like boiling spinach, throwing away the spinach and just drinking the water – you’ll get some of the nutrients, but you’re throwing away the best bit. Matcha is drunk as a fine powder diffused in liquid so you actually ingest the whole leaf, consuming every little bit of lovely green tea good stuff. That's why it is a super power green magic potion.
Health benefits of drinking matcha tea:
- Mental alertness and clarity
- Stronger immune defense and detoxification.
- Polyphenols in matcha promote relaxation and contribute beneficially in maintaining cardiovascular health, gastrointestinal health
- Superb energy booster
- Tastes delicious, makes your day feel happier.
