Matcha green
tea is cited as one of the best teas to drink for your health. This is because the whole tea leaf --- not just the buds --- is ground with a stone into the powder that is used to prepare the drink.
Chlorophyll
The way matcha is harvested preserves its chlorophyll content. The strong presence of this element helps your body purge itself of toxins.
Versatility
In addition to drinking it straight, the tea also goes well with desserts, smoothies and soups, so it's easy to incorporate into your diet.
Alertness
Matcha green tea is credited with helping soothe people's nerves, but at the same time makes others feel more alert and focused.
Diet Aid
Like all other natural teas, matcha doesn't have any sugar. Since it is high in fiber and assists in digestion, it's a good complement for dieters who want a healthy drink.
Immunity
This tea is attributed with supporting your immune system by helping you fight off viruses and destroying bacteria.
Antioxidants
Matcha is cited as being a far better source of antioxidants than regular green tea --- although how superior it is is debated --- as well as oranges and blueberries.
