Matcha. Matcha. Matcha.


The infamous green tea powder that makes this new found indulgence of mine called Soy Green Tea Latte from Starbucks so delectable.  If you are a tea drinker you know a lot about green tea and if you are a health nut I'm sure you know about the health benefits.  A lot of people know Matcha as a powder version of it's cousin, green tea.  It is, but it's a much higher grade and prepared in a completely different way.  It has to do with leaves, japan, monks and well you get the picture.  Note when buying it,  the higher the quality of powder you buy, the sweeter and finer it is.

Matcha is very powerful in antioxidants.  It actually has 10x the amount of antioxidants as a cup of regular tea.   It's also more powerful than dark chocolate, goji berries, spinach and wild blueberries.

This powder has the ultimate powers that help with:
1. Cancer Prevention
2. Anti-Aging
3. Lowers Cholesterol
4. Prevents Heart Disease
5. AIDS IN WEIGHT LOSS
6. Detoxifier
7. Improves Brain Activity
8. High in Fiber
9. Energy Booster
10. Tastes Amazing




This powder has a bright lime green color that at first can take you by surprise and wonder what someone is juicing with spinach or avocado but once you taste it, you will be hooked.  Did I mention 1 gram has only 3 calories?!
