The Benefits of Matcha

Updated: Oct 26, 2018

I gave up coffee after I had a stomach bug and couldn't keep it down. After that sickness my love affair with coffee was never the same again. I would get a matcha latte every so often and I decided to incorporate that into my mornings instead. I didn't realize the benefits of matcha until after I had started drinking it regularly.


Here is why matcha is a powerhouse:

  1. It is a full serving of greens

  2. High in antioxidants

  3. It helps to fight cancer

  4. High in amino acids that promote calm and heightened awareness 

  5. Increases brain function

  6. Increases energy

  7. Boosts metabolism

  8. Fortifies the immune system

  9. Boosts HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol)

I make my own matcha lattes by combining almond milk, 1 tsp of powdered matcha, and 1 tbsp of maple syrup. You can put all of these things in a pot and whisk them up to a frothy green latte. Try to incorporate some matcha into your life and reap some health benefits!
