MATCHA TEA FOR WEIGHT  LOSS – How It Helps Burn Fat And How To Prepare It


Want to lose weight? Let’s talk matcha! #Matcha tea or #powdered tea is the new #health and #weight loss drink that #e.v.e.r.y.o.n.e is raving about. It is used in the #Japanese tea ceremony and is obtained from the same plant as #green tea. But matcha tea is #10X times more potent in aiding weight loss than green tea because it is processed differently.

How Matcha Tea Aids Weight Loss

LOW IN CALORIES
 

Matcha tea is low in calories – 1 g contains about 3 calories. So, even if you have more than 2 g of the tea, you will not consume too many calories.

RICH IN ANTIOXIDANTS


Matcha tea is obtained from the same plant as green tea, Camellia sinensis. And, like green tea, matcha tea also contains the most abundant and proactive antioxidant.

BOOSTS METABOLISM


If you are trying to lose weight, you should pay attention to your metabolic rate. If your metabolic rate is slow, you will not be able to shed the fat, no matter how less you eat. Matcha green tea has been found to boost or speed up your slacking metabolism.

BURNS FAT


Matcha tea is rich in catechins that increase the body’s thermogenesis from 8-10% to 35-43%. Moreover, drinking this tea can improve your exercise endurance and help you burn or mobilize fat.

HOW TO PREPARE MATCHA TEA AT HOME

Preparing matcha tea is simple and is similar to making a cup of green tea.


WHAT YOU NEED
Chawan – traditional Japanese Matcha tea bowl.

Ingredients ½ teaspoon Matcha green tea powder.
2-3 ounces of water at 185o F

HOW TO PREPARE MATCHA TEA

Sift half a teaspoon or two bamboo scoops of matcha green tea powder and add it to the tea bowl.
Carefully pour the hot water.Use the bamboo whisk to whisk the matcha, using a “W” motion.
Do this until a layer of froth has formed.Slow down the whisking and slowly lift the whisk from the center.
And, it’s ready!
