Does matcha tea make you poop?

We like to say “matcha makes things happen” but in this case, yes, “matcha makes things move.” The caffeine and high levels of antioxidants in matcha indeed can help you poop.

It aids our bowels to move in the right direction, and people who have problems with irregularity or slow-digestion widely report benefits from matcha tea. Interestingly, the L-theanine inside matcha also works with caffeine to rev-up your metabolism without feeling anxious. That can be a great help to get things moving.

Last week had matcha tea with hot water and sugar.
I want to try matcha icecream, they have it at the unlimited sushi buffet here, they raised their prices since covid as I called to reserve for me and my friends. It was 15.49$cad now its 19.49$cad. Its still a very good deal as other places I pay 36$cad for 28 sushis and I am not even full after eating 28 sushis.

Oh, I didn’t know that! I’ve only had matcha tea a few times. I remember it had a strong grassy taste.

Never tried Matcha. It’s basically green tea right?

Yeah. The stuff I got is pretty good. It came in a box with single use packets. You just fill a mug with hot or cold water

@ThePickinSkunk the reason I’m telling you this is that if you order yours from Amazon the instructions are in Japanese so I had to figure it out on my own.

That sounds interesting. There’s a podcast that you can get called Stuff You Should Know (SYSK). If you are interested they did a show about tea. They talked about tea origins and how different teas are processed depending on the type of tea you want.
