Matcha green tea packs the antioxidants

From New Orleans, at a meeting of the American Chemical Society

Some nutritionists have suggested that matcha, the green tea prepared during Japanese tea ceremonies, might offer more health benefits than the green tea most people drink in the United States. Until now, however, there was little scientific evidence to support this hunch.

For years, studies have indicated that the antioxidants in green tea offer protection against diseases, including cancer, and even fight dental cavities.
