<p><b>LLS Japanese Matcha Green Tea</b></p> In 2003, researchers from the University of Colorado found that the concentration of the antioxidant EGCG available from drinking matcha is at least three times greater than the amount of EGCG available from other commercially available green teas. <br> <br> Matcha is also said to boost metabolism and help reduce cholesterol levels when it is drunk regularly. The aforementioned health benefits of matcha green tea can largely be attributed to the fact that the whole tea leaf is ingested, as opposed to just the steeped water in the case of 'bagged' green teas. This means that it delivers a much higher potency of catechins, chlorophyll, and antioxidants. By weight, matcha contains several dozen times more antioxidants (> 1000 mmol/100g) than blueberries (~9mmol/100g), wolfberries, pomegranates, orange juice, spinach (~1mmol/100g) or dark chocolate (~11mmol/100g). <br> There evidence from clinical studies that suggests that theanine, when consumed by drinking Japanese green teas, may help to reduce or moderate mental stress responses. <br> <br>Other research has also highlighted Matcha's ability to: <br> <br> <b>Reduce Stress</b> <br> <b>Energise and Boost Metabolism</b> <br> <b>Moderate Blood Sugar Levels</b> <br> <b>Promote Detoxification</b> <br> <br> Matcha Green Tea, when consumed as a drink, is definitely an acquired taste which is why taking a high quality Matcha Green Tea supplement such as ours is a great way to reap the benefits of the drink without having to taste it!
