Most effective way to take great

nutrients of green tea

Benefits of Sencha Powder :

Though you can only take 30% of the nutrients of green tea when you drink it with a conventional way of brewing, some nutrients such as Vitamin A, Chlorophyl or Zinc would not be well extracted by this method.

You might need to drink more than 10 cups (approximately 20g of tealeaves to take 1g of Catechin from normal brewed tea, you can take the same amount of Catechin out of just 6g of the grined powder. You can also benefit from the entire nutrients once tealeaves are milled, by directly drinking it, eating it, using it as cold prevention or as disinfectant for kitchen utensils.
