Green matcha tea originates from the fresh leaf shoots of Japanese and Chinese tea bushes. In Asia, green tea is consumed daily. It can be bought in health food stores, online and in a number of supermarkets. It can be used in cooking, smoothies and simply as a tea. A rumor that cannot be documented here, but may be true, is that if green matcha tea is consumed with fresh lemon and a sprinkling of black pepper, the absorption of the active components in the tea increases in the intestine. The taste is slightly earthy and bitter.
I prefer green tea in a smoothie with yogurt and mango (or pineapple). The mixture of the bitter tea, the sour yoghurt and the sweet mango gives a fantastic taste experience.
A book by Sandra Pugliese and Sara Speyer (in danish) "Healthy with matcha in the food" suggests a wide range of food recipes with Matcha tea.
Why is green matcha tea healthy?
Green tea contains both phenols and flavenoids, which have a wide range of health-promoting effects.
Extract from green tea contains , among other things, EGCG (Epigallocatechin-3-gallate) , which has gained a lot of scientific interest in recent times, because it has been shown to have extraordinary positive effects on health, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anticancer properties.
Anticancer properties:
In relation to anticancer properties, EGCG is believed to play an important role in the stabilization of chromosomal structures, whereby chromosomal changes in cell nuclei are prevented. EGCG is also thought to prevent cell death in healthy normal cells, while promoting cell death in cancer cells. This mechanism is particularly relevant in relation to counteracting the effect of the genotoxic mRNA vaccines, as EGCG is believed to promote the cleansing of diseased cells which, due to mRNA vaccines, produce persistent spike proteins. Certain studies also suggest that EGCG can repair DNA-damaged cells.
EGCG also increases the effect of the tumor suppressor gene p53, which is damaged by the spike protein. This gene has an important role in the prevention of cancer.
In other words. EGCG appears to be effective for detoxification in vaccine-injured patients.
Anti amyloid properties:
In a study from 2013, EGCG was shown to be able to break down amyloid, which is a form of scar tissue that can lodge in various tissues and organs. Amyloid occurs in connection with inflammation. Amyloid is believed to be a major cause of Alzheimer's disease. Amyloid has also been described as one of the elements in damage after the mRNA vaccines.
Antiviral properties: A study from 2021 has also shown that EGCG prevents the coronavirus from dividing and that it prevents the harmful effects of the spike protein.
EGCG can be used to
1. Prevention and treatment of cancer.
2. Prevention and treatment of disorders involving amyloid.
3. Counteract the spike protein's harmful effects.
EGCG can also be taken as a dietary supplement.
