The L-Theanine in Matcha Green Tea does many wonderful things, such as helping to regulate certain neurotransmitters in the brain to induce "mental balance." Further, it enhances this by causing the brain to produce more Alpha waves, the brain waves associated with a "calm, alert, focused" mental state.

It goes further. Research is discovering it to be an impressive neuroprotective agent, capable of crossing the BBB (blood-brain barrier) to deliver antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions directly to brain cells to keep them healthy, and to help against dementias.

The mental health and neuroprotective benefits are the ones from the L-Theanine in Matcha. It also contains the "Super-Compound" EGCG--a very impressive, widely researched antioxidant known and recognized globally as a powerful anti-cancer agent. In fact, many, if not most research studies on the compound, begin with some discussion about the reason Asian populations have much lower incidences of cancer than modern Westerners, is due to their higher consumption of Green Tea.

Then there are numerous other more commonly known nutrients in Matcha Green Tea that help us to stay healthy in many ways.
