Hello Fitlifers!
Welcome to another exciting Saturday Strategy!
If you leave a comment below this video, you’re going to be entered into our system for the weekly draw to win a Kuvings juicer!
It’s so easy to reach for that coffee first thing in the morning. We crave because it boosts our energy and gives us mental clarity. But by mid-afternoon, our energy is drained completely and we reach for another cup of joe.
In many Asian countries, green tea is the preferable choice. According to a popular folklore, an Emperor of China drank a bowl boiled water to start his day. Around 2737 BC, a few leaves were blown from a nearby tea tree into his boiled water. The emperor took a sip of the brew and was pleasantly surprised by its flavor and restorative properties.
Not only are we going to share the power of green tea this week, we are going to enhance it with other amazing ingredients that will make feel more alert and productive throughout the day. The ingredients are the following: Lemon grass, Ginger, Mint, Matcha Green Tea and Manuka Honey.
Lemongrass
Lemongrass can help prevent the growth of some bacteria and yeast. It also contains properties that are thought to relieve pain, reduce fever, stimulate the uterus and menstrual flow, and contain antioxidant properties.
Ginger
Ginger may also help reduce chronic pain by lowering your levels of hormones that induce inflammation. According to a study published in 2005 suggests that ginger could lessen pain more effectively than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Ginger contains anti-inflammatory compounds called gingerols. These substances are believed to explain why so many people with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis experience reductions in their pain levels and improvements in their mobility when they consume ginger regularly.
Mint
Mint is a powerful herb that can help restore vibrant skin. Mint contains salicylic acid, which a natural acne fighting compound. Mint also has Vitamin A which regulates oiliness.
Matcha Green Tea
Matcha increases energy levels and endurance. Samurais (the noble warriors of medieval and early-modern Japan) drank matcha green tea before going into battle due to the tea’s energizing properties. While all green tea naturally contains caffeine, the energy boost received from matcha is largely due to its unique combination of other nutrients. The increased endurance from a bowl of matcha green tea can last up to 6 hours and because of the effects of L-Theanine. Matcha drinkers experience none of the usual side-effects of stimulants such as nervousness and hypertension.
Manuka Honey
Honey is an ideal liver fuel because it contains a nearly 1:1 ratio of fructose to glucose. A properly fueled liver is central to optimal glucose metabolism during sleep and exercise. Studies have shown that those who use honey as their sweetener of choice have reduced weight gain and percentage of body fat, as well as improved HDL cholesterol, improved blood sugar levels, and reduced oxidative damage.
