Anyone tried Matcha yet? 🍵
We've just got a delivery of Hottea Mama's new Mind over Matcha 😍😍
With matcha you still get your caffeine hit but its digested much slower leading to a calm, focused energy rather than coffee's quick hit then crash.
Other benefits (curtesy of Google) include:
Stress Levels:
The L-theanine in matcha stimulates alpha brain waves, inducing a state of calm alertness. This balances out the caffeine, significantly reducing the anxiety and nervousness that some experience with coffee.
Antioxidant Power:
Matcha is celebrated for its high concentration of catechins, particularly EGCG, which fight cellular damage and lower inflammation. Coffee is also rich in antioxidants (like chlorogenic acid), but matcha provides a completely different nutritional profile, including chlorophyll, vitamins A, C, E, and K.
Digestion and Oral Health:
Coffee is highly acidic and can cause stomach irritation, acid reflux, or teeth staining. Matcha is alkaline, gentle on the stomach, and contains natural antibacterial properties that help combat bad breath.
