The active substances of matcha tea have an invigorating as well as soothing effect. Organic matcha extract has the same effect on your skin, stimulating yet relaxing, creating a harmonious balance. When matured with limited exposure to sunlight, green tea has the highest amount of antioxidants compared to other plants. Organic matcha extract is characterized by its high content of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). This polyphenol accounts for about a third of its dry matter and is considered an antioxidant 100 times more potent than vitamin C. Due to further catechins and tea flavonoids in exclusive organic matcha extract, Kosho Matcha Effective provides natural protection against cell transformation caused by free radicals, against UV radiation and other harmful environmental influences.
