Matcha – Nature’s Green Gold Matcha is rich in chlorophyll, fibre, minerals and vitamins. Matcha is shade-grown, it is substantially richer in chlorophyll than other green teas, making it an excellent daily detox. Anti-oxidant Powerhouse One of the major benefits is that matcha is packed with antioxidants, more so than other “superfoods”. Just one serving of matcha tea has 137 times more antioxidants than 10 cups of regularly brewed green tea. The antioxidants are so potent, they’re in a class of their own, called “catechins” which aren’t found in other foods. Matcha is Full of Pure Energy Matcha is rich in L-Theanine, which is a rare amino acid that promotes a state of relaxation and well being without feeling sedated. While L-Theanine is common in all tea, matcha may contain up to five times more of this amino acid than common black and green teas. Matcha is Versatile Drink it whisked – quite a ceremony Matcha just fits into any of your daily foods – into your pancake or cake batter, bread or just sprinkle on stir fried or roasted veggies. Mix it with yogurt, smoothies and shakes or just use it as your favourite ice-cream topping ….mmmm.
