Love You Matcha
Make your day with a cup of matcha.
Matcha, the finely ground green powder you've seen on the shelves of almost every coffee shop, has taken the wellness world by storm, and rightfully so. Boasting with nutrients and health benefits, matcha is the superhero caffeinated drink you want to fight your battles. So what kind of superpowers does this super drink have?
Rich in Antioxidants
Antioxidants are essential for fighting oxidative stress held in your body and reducing the risk of chronic diseases. Matcha contains catechins, a class of antioxidants known to improve heart health and may even have cancer-fighting properties. And with more antioxidants than regular green tea, matcha is a fantastic choice for those looking to boost their antioxidant intake naturally. Looking to boost your metabolism, too?
Detoxifies the Body
Because of the growing process of matcha, there are increased levels of chlorophyll in the leaves, which also gives matcha its green color. Chlorophyll is known for its detoxifying properties, helping to remove toxins and heavy metals from the body. Adding matcha to your daily mix helps your body's natural detoxification processes, improving overall health.
Supports Heart Health
Regular consumption of matcha may contribute to better heart health. Research suggests that green tea drinkers have a lower risk of heart disease. The catechins in matcha can help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and improve overall cholesterol profiles. Additionally, matcha supports healthy blood pressure, making it a heart-friendly beverage choice.
Stay Calm and Sip On
The combination of L-theanine and caffeine in matcha can help induce a state of calm alertness. Many people report feeling a sense of tranquility after consuming matcha, a nice change from the usual jitters we may feel after a large cold brew coffee.
Ready for your afternoon pick-me-up? These are just a few reasons to start incorporating matcha into your routines. Whisk up a cup at home, or find a delicious latte at your local cafe, and start sipping in the benefits.
