Here’s a little tidbit about me: I avoid coffee. Why? Because I get jittery and nervous and it leaves me feeling uncomfortable.
However, I am addicted to matcha green tea! For starters, matcha (a special member of the green tea family) energizes me before a workout, yet without being too revved up. It also gives mental clarity, which helps me to focus, be more productive and make better decisions.
And there are numerous proven health benefits of matcha green tea. Matcha is loaded with polyphenols—antioxidants that help the body fight infections—while both matcha and green tea are packed with the powerful EGCG…an antioxidant shown to reduce inflammation, protect us from cell damage and boost metabolism.
Oh, and there’s another perk…it doesn’t interfere with my sleep!
Today’s Matcha Collagen Latte recipe is your morning wake-up… with a twist. It helps you restore lost collagen, which helps keep your skin smooth and glowing.
As a bonus, it’s dairy-free!
Why collagen?
In your 20s, your body produces less collagen. Eating a healthy diet, including plenty of exercise and including collagen-rich foods (such as cashews, berries, citrus fruits) are a few ways to help maintain your collagen levels. In addition, adding an ingestible collagen into your routine helps keep your body well-oiled.
Collagen is a hot supplement right now. But remember… the type of collagen you choose matters.
That’s why I researched and found a multi-ingredient formula to supplement active collagen and supply your body with additional nutrients that encourage increased production of endogenous collagen…. check out the KS Wellness Collagen Beauty Drink below!
