Green Tea is becoming a popular drink. It increases your metabolism and speeds up your fat oxidation.

As a matter of fact it is also used to treat different ailments and diseases, such as cancer, Alzheimer, multiple sclerosis and parkinson. 

A recent breaktrough in science revealed that caffeine can be used to treat Alzheimer. Is the caffeine in Green Tea responsible that it is being used to treat so many diseases? We believe it is only partly responsible. 

Green Tea is made of unfermented leaves and also contains the most powerful antioxidants called polyphenols. Antioxidants are well known for preventing diseases like cancer. But how powerful are the antioxidants in green tea? Is it more powerful than the so called superfoods and fruits like Acai Berry, Maqui Berry or Resveratrol? 

We know that heat destroys antioxidants. This is a fact. Well, eating a tea bag wouldn't taste very well, would it? Luckily, there is green tea powder that is not only being used to make tea. 

Matcha (pronounced [matːɕa]) is one of the most popular green tea powder. Matcha has also spread to North America. Many cafés nowadays use it to turn their lattes, iced drinks, milkshakes and smoothies into healthy superdrinks. 

Conclusion? The next time you visit a café ask for a drink with Matcha. If you are lucky, you can get a tasty and healthy drink right in your next café and you didn't even know about it!
