Product Information

Individually, Matcha and collagen are famously known in the beauty and wellness circles as health powerhouses. But, have you considered how much more effective they could be when combined for maximum impact? The Matcha Konomi powder is organic, stone-ground, and harvested from the heralded Uji region of Japan. Michelle Puyane, co-founder of Chalait says Uji match "tends to have more depth to the flavor; it can be very savory. The other two popular regions are Kagoshima, which might be grassier and have a lighter flavor, and Shizuoka, which is milder, not leaning one way or the other."

If you have yet to try matcha, you’re missing out. And if you’re already a big green tea drinker and still haven’t poured yourself a cup of matcha, then you’re really missing out. We’re here to break down the antioxidant-rich beverage. How To Use Matcha You may be wondering how green tea matcha and collagen work together, or why it’s reportedly recommended to combine them as skin and joint health nutrients.Collagen peptides have unique hydration structures. These structures help to provide your skin with optimal hydration and keep it glowing. It benefits skin elasticity, fights skin dryness and ageing, and helps to maintain the structure of your skin to protect it against sagging. Collagen is capable of improving blood flow to the skin, which supplies your complexion with the nutrients it needs to regenerate itself, particularly at night. Quercetin is a neuroprotective phytochemical with antiviral properties, says Dr. Trattner. It helps regulate carbohydrate metabolism and may act with EGCG to prevent cancer. Pro Tip: Matcha may also help balance cortisol levels (helping relieve stress and anxiety), which when elevated can damage collagen, having an indirect benefit on skin, hair, and joint health. The bottom line | Consider drinking matcha daily to boost your natural collagen in the body

If you have the chance to see a matcha's color, even looking up pictures online, you can get a better sense of its taste and quality. Brighter usually means better. Striking green hues indicate more flavor and less bitterness, while duller colors or yellowish tints are signs that matcha is either lower quality or better used for cooking purposes. In the following blog, we provide information and information on the most relevant studies regarding matcha and collagen peptides, and how matcha can boost your body's collagen and overall health beyond the benefits of beautiful skin. Here’s two essential questions we should answer before we get to the specific role matcha plays in natural collagen production: 1. How is collagen absorbed in the body? Fortunately, that is where dietary collagen supplements come into play, helping to maintain the bodily functions as such:Due to a brief harvest season, select growing regions, and the effort it takes to cultivate and grind green tea leaves, matcha powder is pricey, especially compared to coffee and tea. The price point has a high floor, and if you come across a brand selling ceremonial matcha far below other competitors it should raise some eyebrows regarding the quality. However, Chamberlain Coffee manages to sell its ceremonial matcha powder in the lowest average price tier without sacrificing quality. It doesn't have the rich umami flavor of high-end matcha powders, but it has a balance of sweetness and earthiness, and it blends well.

All types of collagen are made from amino acids, just like other proteins in your body. Collagen is unique for the high concentration of glycine and proline aminos, and an individuals’ collagen health can be influenced by genetic and lifestyle factors (e.g. stress, diet). Pregnancy and breastfeeding: In general, few clinical trials have studied green tea in pregnant or breastfeeding people. But in Italy, the permitted (approved) maximum daily amount is 120 mg of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. EGCG is an active substance in matcha at highly concentrated amounts. Since there is little information about the effects and safety of matcha while pregnant or breastfeeding, reach out to a healthcare provider to discuss the benefits and risks. To help our clients reap the benefits of both superfoods, our matcha-loving team at Kineta has teamed up with Ingenious Collagen, to deliver the ultimate skin energizing bundle for you! As we get older, our body’s natural collagen supply begins to decline, which is why many people choose to add a collagen supplement to their routine. Collagen plays a key role in the body as its most abundant protein, helping to give structure to our hair, skin, nails, bones, ligaments and tendons.Non-dairy milk:My favorite option for this recipe is a Coconut/Almond Milk blend. It keeps the drink low-calorie but the coconut milk imparts a rich and delicious flavor! I also have used lite canned coconut milk and regular old almond milk.
