What benefits am I getting if I add Hydrolysed Collagen to my Matcha latte?
Adding collagen into your diet anywhere is great for increasing your own natural collagen production, which is great for your skin. Adding a dose of pure protein also helps balance blood sugar levels and help curb cravings for sweet things. This combined with the antioxidant properties of Matcha tea make this latte a super-charged skin friend!
Why am I adding fats to my Matcha Latte?
Adding good fats such as coconut oil, grass fed butter or ghee or MCT oil is a great way to stabilise blood sugar and provide energy. MCTs are medium-chain triglyverides, a form of saturated fatty acid that has many health benefits including weight management and better cognitive function.
