Which gives you better energy? It’s not about more caffeine. コーヒーと抹茶、どちらが元気が出るかは カフェインの量ではなく「効き方の違い」です Matcha releases caffeine slowly with L-theanine. That means calm, sustained energy without crashes. Follow @matchamonk.ryo to explore the discipline behind chado 🍵 #matcha #coffee #japanesetea #teaceremony #matchalife

bad things about matcha

Matcha is packed with antioxidants and provides a steady energy boost, but did you know its caffeine content depends on how it’s prepared? While matcha has more caffeine than regular green tea, serving size plays a big role in how much you actually get. 🍵 #matcha #health #nutrition #caffeine VC: yumisdigitaldiary

MATCHA vs COFFEE for acne 👀☕️🍵 (As a naturopathic doctor that specializes in healing acne, I’m team both!!) It’s not about labeling one “good” and the other “bad.” It’s about how caffeine interacts with your cortisol rhythm, blood sugar, and nervous system!! Matcha contains l-theanine, which helps promote calm, steady focus and results in a slower release of caffeine..meaning less of a dramatic cortisol spike. It’s also rich in antioxidants like EGCG, which can support inflammation levels and overall skin health. So for my high-stress, under-eating, caffeine sensitive acne girls? Matcha is often the better starting point. Coffee, on the other hand, is also packed with antioxidants and has benefits for liver support, and even metabolic function when consumed intentionally. And it gets a bad reputation when it comes to acne healing but here’s why that can happen: • Drinking it fasted → blood sugar crash later • Multiple cups per day → chronically elevated cortisol • Using it to override exhaustion → adrenal dysregulation • Poor-quality beans → mold/mycotoxin exposure for sensitive individuals 👉🏼It’s not about “matcha good, coffee bad.” It’s about: • Are you eating with it? • Is your nervous system regulated? • Are you adding a bunch of processed sugar and creamers to it? • Is your blood sugar supported? • Is the quality high (organic, mold-tested, ceremonial grade matcha)? IF I HAD TO CHOOSE… for someone who is really in the thick of their acne healing journey (dealing with active inflammation, cystic breakouts, high stress, or obvious cortisol dysregulation), there’s no doubt that I would usually lean toward matcha. Not because coffee is “bad,” but because matcha is simply gentler on the system. That said, you don’t have to completely eliminate coffee to support your skin. A great middle ground is switching to half-caf or high-quality decaf beans, which lower the caffeine load while still giving you the ritual and antioxidant benefits. Are you team 🍵 or team ☕️? 👉🏼Comment ACNE to get a link to two of my favorite coffee bean and organic ceremonial grade matcha brands that I use at home on a weekly basis

“Matcha has less caffeine than coffee”… or does it? 🤔🍵 Turns out, that’s not always true. In this first episode of our Matcha Myths Debunked series, we uncover the truth about caffeine levels in matcha vs coffee — and why matcha gives you longer-lasting calm energy without the crash. ⚡️

Can she tell the difference? #matcha

The difference IS SO BIG Always get a matcha powder that’s fresh, bright and green if you want to get that photo taken 🙂‍↕️ It’s so astonishing how much difference the quality makes on the color. But I too enjoy the bright grassy color of a premium grade as well ! ^^

Coffee or matcha? 🍵☕️ Matcha 🍵 1tsp = 60-70mg caffeine I love a good matcha latte! It contains L-theanine that blunts caffeine spikes and supports relaxation. It also contains catechins which are a type of polyphenol that support metabolic health and is a heart protective antioxidant. Coffee ☕️ 1 cup = 80-100mg caffeine It is rich in polyphenols and even linked to lower risk of heart disease. If you’re caffeine-sensitive or prone to BP spikes, matcha may feel gentler! Unless you’re already accustomed to your coffee intake. At the end of the day it depends on the person AND the total amount of caffeine per day as well as what we add into our drinky drinks. ☺️ What do you drink?

Which one would you order? If you’ve ever ordered a matcha latte and thought “why can’t I taste the matcha…” this is why ⬇️ I tested 5 different matcha-to-milk ratios. The only thing that changed was the ratio: Xg matcha : 2 oz water @ 160°F : 8 oz low-fat dairy milk 🍵 2g ≈ 60–70 mg caffeine: matcha flavor was very faint and undetectable 🍵 3g ≈ 90–105 mg caffeine: still milk-forward, but matcha flavor was more noticeable 🍵 4g ≈ 120–140 mg caffeine: balanced flavor - matcha was flavorful and not over-powering 🍵 5g ≈ 150–175 mg caffeine: matcha-forward and more prominent - potential sweet spot for those that want a stronger flavor 🍵 6g ≈ 180–210 mg caffeine: most flavor intensity - may be too overpowering for average drinkers One of the biggest opportunities I see for cafes is dialing in a ratio that delivers a consistent, vibrant, matcha-forward drink every single time. Because most of the time it’s not the matcha, it’s the execution (which includes the broader @matchaprogram systems that influence what customers experience in the final drink). A more delicate, first-harvest ceremonial matcha may need a slightly higher dose to show up in milk. A more robust, later-harvest matcha will cut through milk more easily, but may sacrifice that ultra-vibrant green color. ⚠️ There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. It’s about understanding your matcha and building a ratio that highlights its strengths. Test and experiment! Other factors to keep in mind: matcha quality, water temperature, milk temperature, matcha powder storage, types of milks used, etc. If you run a cafe, test side-by-side with your team and taste honestly with your customers in mind. Your customers can feel the difference. Note: Taste is subjective. Conduct a similar taste test with your team in various drink volumes, keeping your average customers’ palates in mind. What you may prefer in matcha flavor may not necessarily be what they do 😉 And cafes, charge accordingly! Another common thing I see is cafes undercharging 🍵 And if you’re a matcha lover… ⬇️ tell me which one you’re choosing 2g, 3g, 4g, 5g, or 6g #matchaholic #cafeowner #baristaskills #specialtycafe #matcha
