Matcha is rich in catechins, a class of plant compounds in tea that act as natural antioxidants.
(EGCG) available from drinking matcha is 137 times greater than the amount of EGCG available from China Green Tips green tea, and at least three times higher than the largest literature value for other green teas (Weiss and Anderton).
Furthermore, an analysis of 15 studies found that drinking green tea was associated with a decreased risk of liver disease (Yin et al).
One study suggests that matcha tea consumed in a realistic dose can induce slight effects on speed of attention and episodic secondary memory to a low degree (Dietz, Dekker and Piqueras-Fiszman).
