GREEN UP YOUR DIET
A GREAT WAY TO KEEP ON TOP OF YOUR HEALTH IS TO LOOK AT WHAT YOU EAT AND DRINK AND SUPERFOODS ARE A TREMENDOUS START.
Matcha Green Tea
Many of us now know that green tea is
good for us due to its antioxidant qualities. However beyond the realm of regular green tea, lies an incredible superfood known as matcha green tea (pronounced MA-cha). It’s a powerful superfood and contains over six times the antioxidants in goji berries, seven times the antioxidants in dark chocolate, 17 times more antioxidants than blueberries and 60 times the antioxidants found in spinach. And that’s just in one teaspoon!
So what are ‘superfoods’ and what makes them so superior to others
and what’s trending in 2015?
‘Superfoods’ are healthy foods that are low in calories and high in nutrients. They pack a
lot of punch for their weight and are excellent sources of antioxidants needed by your
body. While some superfoods cleanse and detoxify the body,
others encourage a healthy digestive system.
