Subject: The goodness of matcha tea
Matcha tea is a precursor of sorts to green tea and is well known and loved in Asian cultures. It is a powder made of the stone ground leaves of green tea. Since you ingest the whole leaf this way, matcha is said to provide more benefits in the form of phytochemicals, antioxidants and other components known to provide health benefits. Normally available as a powder for making a beverage, it is also commonly used as an ingredient in cooking, especially baking or when creating sweet dishes.
Key Takeaways:
- Matcha tea is considered to be better than green tea for consumption. That is because it is simply a healthier drink to choose.
- Matcha tea has higher levels of antioxidants in its makeup. That could ward off diseases and various infections for drinkers.
- Chlorophyll and other amino acids may be found in the tea. Researchers have taken an all new look at Matcha tea for consumption.
