There is a new superfood lurking around the market place – it goes by the name of Matcha… makes me think of macho so I thought I would check out this new green powder on the market
I started my little investigation on the interweb and decided I would find out what the world thinks of this product and also try it out myself.
So Matcha – who are you and where are you from?
Matcha is 100% natural, organic green tea leaves which have been carefully ground down to form a fine powder.
It has been drunk in Japan as part of the tea ceremony for almost 900 years, and is used by Buddhist monks to keep them alert, awake and focused during long days of meditation.
I’m liking the sound of this Zen tea.
So lets look into the benefits…
- Boosts metabolism and burns calories
- Detoxifies effectively and naturally
- Lowers cholesterol and blood sugar
- Boosts memory and concentration
- Amazing flavour
- Full out cancer fighting ingredients
- Anti-ager
- Loaded full of fiber, chlorophyll and vitamins
So I think we are on to a winner.
So my own experiment…
HOT: I tried it in a tea… a very interesting flavour. It was too overpowering for me but worth a try if you like more vegetative tastes it is worth a try
SMOOTHIE: Brilliant in a green smoothie. Try it with Cucumber, Mint, Spinach and Apple.
