MatchaMax: Supercharge Your Life With This Superfood

Matcha green tea, which is originally from Japan, has been used for over a millennia for its many and diverse health benefits. Chief among them is matcha's ability to give you both energy and mental focus in spades. This is the reason why it has been used for centuries both Japanese samurai warriors and Zen Buddhist monks!

But that's not all. Among its other properties are its incredibly high antioxidant power (6x even that of the powerful goji berry!), its ability to boost metabolism and aid in fat loss, as well as its abilities to boost immunity, reduce 'bad' cholesterol in the bloodstream, help maintain a steady blood sugar, and much more.

So what exactly is matcha, and how does it differ from regular green tea? Simply put, matcha is regular green tea powered up to the max! Imagine all the benefits that come with consuming regular green tea. With matcha, these benefits to health are multiplied by a factor of about 10. Yes, just one cup of matcha can give one approximately ten times the benefits of consuming regular green tea.

First of all, unlike regular green tea that is found in the form of tea leaves, then consumed by boiling the tea leaves and drinking the brewed water, matcha is found on the shelves in the form of a green powder. Instead of just drinking the brewed water and then discarding the tea leaves (which means loss of nutrients), with matcha, the entire leaf is ground into a fine powder, and the powder is consumed (either with liquids like water, various types of milk, in smoothies, etc., or used in cooking), so you can benefit from the nutrients of the whole leaf.

Furthermore, matcha is made from very specific, top-quality green tea leaves that are grown in the shade with great care, harvested by hand, and ground into a fine powder. But there are different types of matcha, and they are definitely not the same! While it is outside the scope of this article to go into the details of the various types and grades of matcha, one reliable rule of thumb is this: good quality matcha will be a rich green in color, with a smooth, neutral taste or even with a hint of a sweet aftertaste.

Lesser quality matcha, on the other hand, will be dull in color, usually more yellowish than green, and often have a bitter or "hay like" taste. Good quality matcha will have gone through very stringent harvesting, grinding, and storage processes - and away from light and oxygen to to make sure that their vibrant green color and high antioxidant levels remain intact.

Matcha is not only incredibly healthy, but it is also very versatile - it can be consumed in so many ways such as the traditional method whisked with water, in a latte, in smoothies, and mixed with or used as an ingredient with savory or sweet foods. And true, high quality matcha is delicious, to boot. Definitely a superfood that should have its place in one's daily routine!
