Matcha DNA Green Tea in Individual Serving Pouches

 

Matcha DNA™ tea is organically grown on sustainable farms. It can been made as delicious tea, Lattes, Smothies, Baking or used in food like green tea ice cream and cooking.

I personally think it tastes amazing, and doesn't need any sweetener with it at all. The tea I got came in single serving size packets which makes it extremely easy to fix a healthy cup of tea.

There is only a minute amount of caffeine in it, but it still gives you the pep you may be looking for in the morning. And no withdrawal or fogginess afterward.

One of the main differences with Matcha green teas is that you use the whole plant leaf instead of seeping the tea leaves and then throwing the tea bag or loose leaf tea away.




This is good stuff. You should try it! And you can watch a bit about the health benefits of the green tea here:

Matcha Green Tea Benefits

One of the latest crazes is the matcha green tea powder.And I got some to review from Vigilant Tea (don't you just love the name?)

I use it mostly in my smoothies with a scoop of hemp protein powder and fresh fruit. (Hemp doesn't taste good to me so this helps mask the horrible flavor.

The benefits of Matcha Green Tea:

• Replace your morning coffee with this green tea, and not only will you increase your antioxidants by 100x (compared to coffee) the caffeine in the green tea is slowly absorbed -- giving you the boost you need, but not the jittery let down afterward. No peak and crash! 
• You will feel natural energy throughout the morning with many more health benefits than drinking just regular green tea as it is loaded with ECGC (epigallocatechin gallate) which is widely recognized for its cancer fighting properties.
• Burns calories -- the metabolism boosting properties of green tea is one of the main reasons why many people drink it.

Vigilant Tea separates itself in quality for both rigorous lab testing which ensures the lowest toxicity levels(no heavy metals) and the best taste they can find. They have obtained organic certification to ensure optimal nutrition.  So go ahead, experience the natural calming and peace that comes while you consume VigilantTea in your favorite food or drink!

Nutrient Dense Breakfast Smoothie With Matcha Green Tea

First thing in the morning after I oil pull and take 2 T of coconut oil, I make my "bulletproof hot cacao". This works well for me because it provides me with healthy saturated fats and a tasty treat of raw cacao to help wake me up, as I don't drink coffee.

 A few hours later I start to get hungry so it is time to provide my body with more nourishment and a ton of nutrient dense vitamins and minerals. So I make myself a fruit smoothie filled with the best ingredients. I overload it with tons of great stuff, so I know my body will be able to use what it needs:

Rebecca's Smoothie Recipe:

Frozen fruit
Matcha Green Tea powder
Macro Greens Superfood powder
Miracle Reds Superfood powder
Zeolite
Clark's Minerals
Diatomaceous Earth
Miracle II Neutralizer liquid
Nutiva Hemp protein powder

*Fruit Punch Koolaid (sweetened with Stevia)

*Honestly this is the worst thing in my kitchen. We use the koolaid packets and add filtered water and stevia to sweeten. I don't drink it plain (I prefer water or green tea) but my husband does. He will either drink soda pop all day long or Crystal Light, so this is a compromise I made with him since he refuses to drink water. There are still artificial colors and flavors, though. If you have another fruit juice you prefer, then you can use that. Absolutely no artificial sweeteners are allowed in my house!

If you know of any "koolaid" type drink mix that is a healthier option, then please let me know! I have tried making something similar with fruit teas, like raspberry tea, and sweetening it but my husband did not like it. For this smoothie that might be fine, though.

We live very close to one of the largest outdoor Farmer's Markets in the country (Panama). We get fresh papaya and pineapples, cut them up and freeze them on a cookie sheet before putting them in a gallon ziplock bag to store in the freezer. Usually 2 pineapples and one large papaya will last the whole week for us to make smoothies with, at a cost of less than $5 for the fruit.

I choose papaya and pineapple not only for the taste but for the digestive enzymes that are in the fruits.

The Matcha Green Tea powder has amazing benefits, making it an important part of my daily smoothie. It is high in antioxidants and gives me an energy boost. It has 137 times the antioxidant power of a single cup of green tea!




The Miracle Reds and Macro Greens are nutrient rich superfoods that are gluten and gmo free, and I can actually take them without reacting like I do with other powders that end up having artificial ingredients in.

I use the zeolite to help detoxify my body of heavy metals and I use the diatomaceous earth to help kill any parasites I may have in my body, and for extra silica for beautiful skin, hair and nails (and joints!)

I love the Clark's minerals and have been taking them for such a long time that I don't know what I'd do without them. I buy it by the gallon. The neutralizer from Miracle II levels out my pH and helps to alkalize my body.

The Nutiva Hemp Protein powder is all natural and has only hemp protein, no other ingredients. I do not like the taste of hemp at all, so mixing it in my smoothie hides the taste so I don't even know it is in there. I use half the recommended serving size.
