Matcha Can Kill Cancer Stem Cells? 😳

Matcha tea extracts have been found to kill breast cancer stem cells.

Matcha is rich in Polyphenols, which are compounds with potential health benefits.

The cultivation process of Matcha involves shading the Tea plants for 28 days before harvest.

Shading induces the tea plant to produce significantly higher levels of Polyphenols (30 to 300 times more) as a stress response.

After harvesting, the entire tea leaf is dried and powdered, unlike traditional tea where only the leaves are steeped.

Consuming powdered Matcha means ingesting the whole leaf, maximizing intake of Polyphenols and Dietary fiber.

The Dietary fiber in Matcha supports a healthy Gut microbiome.
