1. The origin and cultural background of matcha powder.

Matcha powder originated in China during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and was later introduced to Japan and developed in the Japanese tea ceremony culture. Unlike ordinary green tea, matcha uses tea buds cultivated under shade, and is made into a fine powder through processes such as steaming, drying, stem removal, and stone grinding. Because it is grown in the dark, the chlorophyll, amino acids, and antioxidants in the tea leaves are higher, making matcha powder not only fresh and mellow but also highly nutritious.

Today, matcha powder is not only a representative of traditional tea drinks, but also an important part of a modern healthy diet. It is widely used in the food, beverage, health care, and cosmetics industries.

2. Health benefits of matcha powder.

(1) Rich in antioxidants and anti-aging

Matcha powder contains rich tea polyphenols, especially EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), which has an antioxidant capacity more than 100 times that of vitamin C. It can effectively remove free radicals, delay cell aging, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

(2) Enhance immunity and promote metabolism

The catechins and L-theanine in matcha powder help regulate the immune system and improve disease resistance. At the same time, it can also promote metabolism and help the body burn fat more efficiently. It is an ideal choice for fitness enthusiasts and dieters.

(3) Refreshing the mind and improving concentration

Matcha powder contains a moderate amount of caffeine (about 35 mg/cup), but unlike the intense stimulation of coffee, the L-theanine in matcha can release energy steadily, keeping people awake and less anxious, which is suitable for office workers and students who need to concentrate for a long time.

(4) Detoxification and beauty, improving skin quality

The chlorophyll in matcha powder has a natural detoxification effect, which can help purify the blood and reduce the accumulation of heavy metals in the body. In addition, its anti-inflammatory properties can also improve acne skin and make the skin smoother and more delicate.

(5) Regulating blood sugar and cardiovascular health

Studies have shown that matcha powder helps stabilize blood sugar levels, lower cholesterol, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. It is a healthy drink choice for patients with diabetes and hypertension.
