With summer just around the corner, it’s no wonder everyone is racing to do what they can to burn as much fat as possible! Whether it’s wearing a teeny-tiny bikini or trimming down for the next bodybuilding show, the new wave is all about matcha green tea!
Matcha, with one serving providing the nutritional value of 10 cups of regularly brewed green tea, is a bright green finely ground powder once used by ancient Chinese and Japanese monks to help stay alert. In our modern times, it is known for its ability to increase metabolism, lower cholesterol, and help the body burn calories, or what is called ‘thermogenic’, by up to 43%.
In a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, it was demonstrated that matcha has more benefits than once thought. In addition to improving overall health such as lowering “bad” cholesterol, cancer prevention and anti-aging benefits, matcha was pioneered in providing a number of benefits:
1. As a metabolic booster: Matcha tea helps burn calories and helps build lean mass and burn fat. It is the perfect companion to support your weight loss goals in an all natural organic way by increasing your body’s metabolic rate. Matcha green tea contains the polyphenol EGCG, which is a thermogenic component thought to boost metabolism. Whether you are an Olympic athlete or simply in need of premium nutrition, this is your perfect source of nutrients. Our elite athletes and aspiring athletes love the way it enhances performance, skill and concentration. There are no crashes, addictions or negative side effects.
2. For continued energy, strength and confidence! Organic Matcha helps boost your energy, vitality and sense of power and drive you with slow-release natural energy. Matcha contains caffeine, but it is released slowly into the bloodstream, making it mild on the stomach, aiding in digestion, cleansing and healing. This makes it more effective and free from jerks. Matcha is ideal for low glycemic, paleo and ketogenic diet fans! It is low-calorie, balances blood sugar, low-glycemic and packed with high-quality nutrition.
3. The Ultimate Mega Brain Food – Increases memory, focus and concentration! One serving of Matcha Green Tea can provide improved energy and performance lasting up to 6 hours. Matcha is also recognized as a natural healthy mood enhancer that makes you feel great. It helps to focus and stay “in the zone”, that wonderful place is also interpreted as a state of flow. It’s wonderful for yoga, studying, and doing tedious projects. It will also revolutionize your prayer and meditation practice. Best Matcha Green Tea is a pure authentic Japanese matcha tea that is grown and harvested in its purest form in Japan.
4. Improves skin, hair and nails, lowers cholesterol. Regular matcha green tea drinkers have lower levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol while simultaneously increasing higher levels of HDL (good) cholesterol. It rejuvenates hair, skin and nails. You can use the powder any way you want. Drink it as a tea, pop it into capsules, stash it in your school or gym bag, add it to smoothies, make lattes, bake it, and even add it to frozen yogurt.
