Matcha and Protein: Tik Tok Says It’s Hot!
Well if you are fan of matcha and you like it with a little protein powder, this is your week at Tik Tok. We love the antioxidant benefits of matcha. And yep, we are all here for the way protein keeps our muscles strong. Most of us already get enough protein in our diet. Consider 0.8 grams per kilogram of bodyweight. Don’t over do it because too much protein can cause a problem. As always, check with your physician to be sure you are on the right track for you.
What is Matcha?
Matcha is a finely ground powder made from specially grown and processed green tea leaves. This tea is rich in nutrients and antioxidants. Try adding your favorite protein powder and a bit of almond or oat milk for a plant-powered punch. Check out the Black Girls Eat website to make your own Matcha Protein Shake.
