I\u2019ve always been a coffee lover, but the benefits of green tea for your health are so compelling that I\u2019m always looking for a way to work it into my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies show<\/a> that the antioxidant compounds in green tea relieve inflammation & stress – which are two big triggers for menopause symptoms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On top of that, green tea helps keep bones strong, boosts metabolism & helps with memory & cognition – ALL things we can benefit from during this time of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matcha tea can be a great addition or replacement for your morning cup of coffee. It has 10 times as many antioxidants as standard green tea & it has some of the key vitamins & minerals for supporting hormonal balance (vitamin C, selenium, chromium, zinc & magnesium).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When my daughter taught me how to make my own matcha tea, I was hooked. My favorite brand is Pique. I buy the loose-powder form. All you have to do is add 1\/2 teaspoon of matcha to 1 cup of hot water & whisk until dissolved. I like to add a bit of honey & some warm soy milk to make my own matcha latte. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re struggling with hot flashes, making a swap from coffee to matcha tea can be super helpful. Give it a try!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can make the benefits even better by inviting a friend over to enjoy a cup of tea with you!<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
