The Power of Matcha Tea and Rhodiola

The Choice for why Matcha and Rhodiola are in the Power Meal

Here is a close looker at Matcha Tea and Rhodiola benefits.

Matcha Tea: Not all antioxidants are created equal and Matcha Tea is the supreme tea for antioxidants. Among green tea antioxidants, catechins are the most potent and beneficial. One specific catechin called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) makes up 60% of the catechins in Matcha Green Tea, and  EGCg is the most widely recognized for its cancer fighting properties. Scientists have found that Matcha Green Tea contains over 100 times more EGCg than any other tea on the market, detoxifying the body. Other benefits:

  • Enhances Calm
  • Boosts Memory and Concentration
  • Increases Energy Levels and Endurance
  • Burns Calories
  • Detoxifies body
  • Supports the Immune System
  • Supports Healthy Cholesterol, Blood Pressure, Blood Sugar Levels

Drinking Matcha Green Tea has been shown to increase metabolism and help the body burn fat about four times faster than average. Unlike many diet supplements currently on the market, Matcha causes no negative side-effects such as increased heart rate and high blood pressure.

Rhodiola:

Rhodiola is a an herbal plant and is also know as golden root, arctic root and roseroot. Rhodiola crenulata and rosea are rich in compounds which are used to treat several disorders.  Rhodiola has been used in the Orient as a powerful adaptogen and medicinal agent since the beginning of their civilization. It has been considered to be a life-prolonging, wisdom-enhancing “superior herb”. It is a superb tonic and energizer for those living under stressful conditions. It has been used to help support overall vitality and well-being.

Why we chose Rhodiola over Ashwagandha?

We had been told by a few sources that Rhodiola was the superb herb between the two.

We muscle tested over a dozen people on both herbs and found every person tested was weak on the Ashwagandha and very strong on Rhodiola. A couple incidences of hives was reported with Ashwagandha on the test group.

 

What are the benefits?

Rhodiola improves a person’s capacity to absorb and utilize oxygen and is superb for athletes. Extensive research has documented benefits of Rhodiola for anti-cancer, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-radiation, anti-diabetes and anti-allergy effects. It is a safe antidepressant. Rhodiola’s prominent scientifically supported functions are:

  • Improves blood transport of oxygen and nutrients
  • Helps support overall vitality and well-being
  • Beneficial to the cardiovascular system
  • Powerful immune modulator
  • Supports for the lungs and respiratory function
  • Support for fatigue
  • Helps the regulation of blood sugar
  • Promotes healthy and regular heart function
  • Protection against cancer, mutation and radiation
  • Promotes longevity
  • Supports adrenal glands for those in stressful living conditions

We recommend taking between 100 mg to 500 mg a day with 250 mg's already in your Power Meal.  Even though Rhodiola can reduce anxiety, some people might feel energized from it. Take at least 3 hours from sleep. A word of caution. Because all herbs, including Rhodiola and Ashwagandha can have strong effects on the body  they should be used under the guidance of a botanically trained health care professional.
