At Organic Africa Chocolate we are passionate about chocolate, but we also love exploring and sharing the benefits of other superfoods like matcha tea. In this article, we will travel through the fascinating world of matcha tea, from its origins to its incredible nutritional benefits.
Matcha tea is a special type of powdered green tea originating in Japan . It is carefully made from tea leaves that are carefully cultivated and slowly ground into a fine powder. Unlike other tea varieties, matcha tea is consumed in its entirety, ensuring that all the nutrients and antioxidants present in its leaves are absorbed.
With a history dating back centuries in Japanese culture, matcha tea has been used for centuries in tea ceremonies, being an important integral part of daily life in the country. This practice, passed down from generation to generation, has established matcha tea as a fundamental element in Japanese culture and tradition.
Being an important source of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals , matcha tea is well known for its numerous health benefits. Among the most prominent ones are the following:
With its high concentration of antioxidants, particularly catechins, matcha tea offers protection against oxidative stress and chronic diseases . In addition, studies have shown that its regular consumption promotes cardiovascular health by reducing LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and triglyceride levels. This drink also provides a sustained energy boost thanks to its moderate caffeine content, which in small doses avoids the adverse effects associated with coffee.
Its L-theanine promotes concentration and mental clarity. This amino acid with relaxing properties counteracts the effects of caffeine, provides a feeling of calm and reduces stress . In turn, research suggests that matcha tea can contribute to weight loss, since by increasing the metabolic rate, it helps burn fat, making it an ideal ally for those looking to lose weight.
At Organic Africa Chocolate, we deeply value matcha tea as a true treasure of nature, bursting with nutrients and health benefits. We are proud to offer products that integrate this extraordinary superfood. While the industry uses “culinary” matcha , at OAC we opt for the highest grade, known as “ceremonial” and used in tea rituals. All this thanks to our premium supplier The Matcha House , so that with every bite, our customers enjoy its incredible benefits in a delicious way.
