Matcha and Moringa, they’re great on their own, but together, they’re a dynamic duo.
The compounds in Moringa actually help your body absorb the healthy nutrients in matcha more effectively, up to 25% more absorption of Matcha’s key antioxidant EGCG. Moringa’s healthy fatty acids also help your body absorb fat-soluble nutrients
Matcha provides a steady and consistent energy boost from it’s combination of caffeine and L-theanine without the crash of coffee or sodas.
Moringa is highly adaptogenic, it helps regulate cortisol levels and improve stress resistance.
Together they offer balanced energy, endurance and mental clarity.
The flavours also blend beautifully together, neutralizing the sharp, earthy and bitter taste of moringa with the sweeter, greener taste of the matcha.
