'White Chocolate' Bulletproof Matcha Latte
Why Matcha?
Matcha is known for its health-promoting properties. It is rich in chlorophyll, a powerful detoxifier that helps to eliminate both chemicals and heavy metals from the body. Moreover, matcha is one of the highest sources of antioxidants, and that is due to the fact that it has grown in the shade during the three weeks before it is harvested.
It has high levels of EGCg. Research has indicated that EGCg provides potent cancer-fighting properties. [*] Most importantly though, EGCg counteracts the damage done on the cell’s DNA from chemical, UV ray, and radiation exposure. [*]
But there is more: matcha is super rich in L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes a state of relaxation and well-being. [*] In addition, research has shown that L-theanine may help improve memory and the ability to learn. [*] Add the caffeine content of matcha and you have the perfect mixture of both worlds. Caffeine and L-theanine have a nootropic effect when you combine them together, they promote calm alertness, as well as mental endurance, short-term memory, and faster reaction time. [*]
The flavor of matcha is richer than regular green tea which makes it perfect for blending with a creamy substitute like cocoa butter or macadamia milk — and Pure C8 MCT Powder for extra creaminess and cognitive benefits.
