Matcha can be seen everywhere from menus in cafes to baking recipes; but what exactly is matcha? Clarissa Berry from DIRTEA Nutrition explains.

Mushrooms and matcha contain essential nutrients, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds which together can provide vital immunity boosting, cognitive enhancing and stress reducing benefits.

Boosts Immune System

Mushrooms and matcha green tea both provide essential antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds, and key nutrients that can boost immunity and cognitive performance. Reishi mushrooms have even been shown to help lower cancer risks, boost immune systems, support heart health, and support overall wellness – just two benefits you’d get with our mushroom matcha blend! Luckily we make our mushroom matcha blend even simpler for you to experience them both simultaneously!

Supports Weight Loss

Matcha tea is an energizing drink with an umami taste and high antioxidant levels, particularly potency polyphenol catechins which have many health benefits. Furthermore, its green hue comes from chlorophyll which gives its signature green hue as well as helping eliminate toxins from the body and providing detoxification benefits. Finally, L-theanine provides focus and calmness benefits – two qualities highly desired in tea drinking!

Matcha tea can be an excellent alternative to coffee, with its lower caffeine levels and increased amounts of the L-theanine amino acid, making digestion simpler. Plus, its less acidic composition means it’s gentler on digestive tract. Just like any food or beverage, however, matcha should be enjoyed in moderation to avoid side effects such as jitteriness, stomach upset, sleep disturbances or anxiety as well as increased blood pressure or heart rate – therefore speaking to a medical provider before beginning any new supplement regimen may be essential if taking medications such as anticoagulant or antihypertensive drugs.

Green tea (including matcha) is an excellent natural source of soluble iron that supports red blood cell production and prevents iron deficiency anemia – a condition in which there are too few red blood cells carrying oxygen throughout the body. Furthermore, studies have also indicated its protective qualities against diabetes as well as improving cardiovascular risk factors.

Though green tea may provide many health benefits, it should not be combined with certain medications, including atorvastatin – a cholesterol-reducing statin drug – because this could interfere with its absorption as well. Iron and zinc absorption could also be diminished so for optimal consumption it should be combined with food sources like food supplements.

Make sure your matcha is of high-quality, shade-grown, organic variety for maximum benefit – either online or at most health food stores. When it comes to preparation, use matcha powder in a bowl or cup, adding just shy of boiling water a few ounces at a time while whisking the mixture briskly; this process releases enzymes responsible for its health benefits as well as encapsulate antioxidants into its structure – you can then either drink this matcha tea as a drink, or add it into recipes to increase nutritional content of meals and snacks alike!

Boosts Cognitive Function

Matcha + mushroom pairing is a potency wellness combination, providing multiple health benefits including immune system health, cognitive function enhancement and adaptogenic stress relief. Matcha provides sustainable energy boost while mushrooms such as lion’s mane and reishi offer anti-inflammatory benefits for optimal body wellness.

Matcha tea contains antioxidants like EGCG to combat oxidative stress and lower the risk of chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Furthermore, Chaga and Reishi mushrooms contain beta glucans to support immune support and fight inflammation.

Ceremonial matcha contains L-theanine, an amino acid with unique effects on the mind. L-theanine enhances alertness and promotes focus without producing the jitters associated with caffeine; improving mood and reducing anxiety while simultaneously increasing alpha brain waves associated with calmness and mindfulness.

Rheal Magic Matcha can provide an easy, sustainable energy boost. This is due to EGCG, found in matcha, which boosts thermogenesis and metabolism while simultaneously decreasing cholesterol and triglyceride levels, increasing HDL lipids and providing improved heart health benefits.

Combining matcha with functional mushrooms is an easy and delicious way to pack more nutrients into your day. This blend combines high quality ceremonial grade matcha with adaptogenic mushrooms such as lion’s mane, reishi and chaga for optimal brain health, immunity and stress relief. Try this tea in any of your latte recipes or mix with milk for an adaptogenic matcha latte; alternatively you could even use it in smoothies or baked goods!
