16. Matcha Green Tea
Have you found that by the afternoons, you’re slumped on the sofa flicking aimlessly through the TV without the energy to get up and do something productive? Well, it may be time to invest in some matcha green tea. All forms of green tea contain a naturally occurring amino acid called L-Theanine, but the content is higher in matcha green tea, and along with the natural caffeine content, this causes a stimulant which works to increase alertness and improve concentration at the same time. Which figures: Buddhist monks have been drinking matcha for centuries when mediating. Matcha is traditionally made with a bamboo whisk, and drunk from a bowl.
Like other superfood powders, you can simply add a heaped teaspoon of matcha green tea powder into your daily smoothies and breakfasts to pack that powder into your diet. The ways to eat it aren’t exactly endless, but they are varied, and once you get into the routine of taking matcha, you honestly get used to the strong flavour and even start to–dare we say it–crave it.
