The Benefits

High in Antioxidants
Matcha is bursting with antioxidants! With a mighty 1,573 ORAC units per gram, it tops the charts. It even has 137x more antioxidants than green tea.

Enhances
Mood
The L-Theanine in Matcha will leave you feeling a happy bunny. It helps to produce dopamine and serotonin which will improve your mood and reduce stress and anxiety.

Slow Releasing
Energy
The “jitters” and quick crash experienced with coffee is non existent with Matcha. A form of caffeine known as theophylline causes the slower release of energy giving you a prolonged boost.

Aids in Weight Loss
Matcha is known for boosting metabolism, and in turn burning fat!

Promotes Concentration
The mighty L-Theanine in Matcha induces alpha waves in your brain. This not only promotes alertness and focus, but aids your body to produce dopamine which in turn improves your concentration.

The catechins in Matcha work to lower LDL cholesterol levels.
Reduces Cholesterol

Boosts
Immunity
Matcha is rich in antioxidants, especially catechins. Its’ most powerful catechin is EGCG which fights off various viral, bacterial and fungal infections.
