How does matcha help with Weight loss?
1.Metabolism
The powerful antioxidants in matcha have been shown to block fat absorption, boost metabolism and slow the growth of fat cells.
2.Thermogenesis
Matcha has been proven to increase the human body’s ability to burn calories from 8-10% to 35-40%.
3.Balanced Blood Glucose
Studies have found that matcha can help balance blood glucose in people with type 2 diabetes. Balancing blood glucose is essential for weight loss as it can help to regulate appetite and cravings.
4.Sustained Energy
The sustained energy that matcha provides through the slow release of caffeine can help keep you active longer throughout the day. Exercise and being overall more active will contribute to losing extra weight.
5.Lowers Cholesterol
Studies have found that catechins significantly reduce the absorption of fat in the intestines. This leads to a lower level of bad cholesterol in the body. Lower cholesterol levels can greatly aid in weight loss and overall health.
6.Antioxidants
Inflammation in the body can promote weight gain by disrupting the gut microbiome balance. The high level of antioxidants in matcha helps to prevent weight gain by
fighting inflammation in the body.
