Rich in healthy compounds like EGCG and amino acid L-theanine(which helps prevent cancers, help with weight loss and improve your heart health), here are some ways to make sure you incorporate more matcha into your diet for a better life!
This is perfect for breakfast time! Think granola, yogurts, cereals and even pancakes. Team this up with a sprinkling of your favorite nuts or fruits on your breakfast goods, and you will have amped up the health benefits of the first meal of the day! As with all these recipes, make sure you are using a high quality, organic matcha like this one HERE.
A matcha smoothie is a perfect meal not just for breakfast, but any time of the day! It is quick, easy, tasty and can be full of amazing healthy products to increase your body's health.

Keep it simple or add in extra ingredients - but this one is sure to keep your energy levels up all day!
If you are an ice cream junkie but are trying to get fit, and in shape, this recipe is for you. The consistency of this is similar to ice cream and hits your sweet spot without ruining your diet.

Blend frozen bananas and a teaspoon of matcha powder - as well as being good for you; the matcha powder turns the iced dessert into a bright, vibrant green!
Coffee lovers rejoice! You can now bump up the nutritional benefits of your morning cup of coffee by adding matcha powder. Replace sugar with a teaspoon of matcha and stir. Watch your java go from brown to green, giggle to yourself about how silly a green cup of coffee looks and then enjoy consuming all the added benefits.
Love to bake? Try adding matcha to your baked goods like bagels, bread, doughnuts, and cakes. The color, of course, will be a super green to match the superfood inside. When used in a cake it is virtually tasteless, so it is a great natural alternative to food colors.
