Team Coffee ☕ or Team Matcha 🍵
You may want to cut back if you have side effects like:
- Headache
- Insomnia
- Nervousness
- Irritability
- Frequent urination or inability to control urination
- Fast heartbeat
- Muscle tremors
Matcha contains less caffeine than coffee and due to the amino acid L-Theanine which can increase alpha wave activity in the brain, it may induce relaxation and decrease stress levels, balancing out the effects usually coming from consuming caffeinated beverages
Coffee due to the above, can thus have a stronger effect while matcha has a calmer effect, not just because of being lower in caffeine but also due to the nutrients present such as L-Theanine
Subsequently matcha can provide a slower releasing and prolonged energy burst Vs coffee plus it contains x160 more antioxidants making it a healthier choice overall. But bare in mind I'm not saying coffee is unhealthy
CONCLUSION
- Both are great choices, but see how you react when consuming caffeinated coffee and/or matcha and it affects your well being on a day to day basis
- If you enjoy coffee too much there's no need to switch to matcha, unless you noticed some side effects from consuming coffee
- Drinking caffeinated beverages won't reduce your mortality rate alone since there are many factors that take place such as smoking, alcohol consumption, stress levels, genetics, nutrition, exercise, sleep etc
- My personal recommendation is not to consume any caffeine after 5PM since the effect takes some time to wear off, so it doesn't affect your sleep quality
