So many advantages

Matcha and its benefits

In Japan, Matcha has a long tradition and is the centerpiece of every tea ceremony.

In the USA, it has already been the trend drink for several years. And meanwhile, the so-called champagne among teas is becoming increasingly popular outside the Asian-American community as well. Those who reduce their coffee consumption in the long term and switch to Matcha will quickly experience a noticeable effect.

Calm and relaxed

L-Theanine, an amino acid found in tea leaves, stimulates the emission of alpha waves in the brain, which influence our mood, reduce stress, and create a feeling of relaxation and calm—without causing drowsiness. In Matcha tea, the content of this amino acid is even higher than in other green teas.

Increases energy levels and improves endurance

The energy level after a cup of Matcha can last for more than 6 hours. Although Matcha contains caffeine, no side effects typical of the state after drinking coffee occur. These include: hyperactivity, high blood pressure, and nervousness. The energy boost is stable because the caffeine is evenly distributed in the blood.

Strengthens the immune system

Catechins, which are abundant in Matcha, have antibacterial and antiviral effects and therefore strengthen the immune system. They also play a major role in protecting the skin from harmful sun radiation. A particularly strong antioxidant in Matcha is a catechin derivative called EGCG. This organic compound shows strong anti-tumor effects and is 100 times stronger an antioxidant than vitamin C.

Helps burn excess calories

Matcha accelerates the body's metabolism, leading to fat burning that is 4 times faster. Unlike other diet products, Matcha is a natural dietary supplement that does not cause side effects such as increased heart rate or elevated blood pressure.

One cup of Matcha corresponds to 10 cups of regular green tea in terms of antioxidant content.

Cleans from the inside

Thanks to the high content of chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for the green coloration of the leaves, Matcha can cleanse our body of toxins.

Lowers the bad cholesterol

Studies show that people who regularly drink Matcha have lower levels of bad LDL cholesterol and higher levels of good HDL cholesterol. Men who drink Matcha have an 11% lower incidence of heart disease than those who do not (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2011). Since Matcha has a high concentration of many nutrients, the key here is also balance.

A daily amount of 1 to a maximum of 2 cups of Matcha provides the body with the perfect nutrient boost.
