If all doctors were like Dr. Berg, I think our hospitals would be mostly empty! You are amazing Dr. Berg. I value your advice more than any other doctor I have ever seen!
I’m glad to read your positive feedback. May I ask how many cups do you drink of matcha daily? And which brand has the best quality matcha? Thanks, Xochitl
@@AF0093 Absolutely my pleasure! And Chi-town is second home for me--with my Dad and Mrs being from the area! Since you're in the States, check out Republic Of Tea Brain Boost, along with their other organic matcha and green tea combos. I regularly drink their Brain Boost, and have combined it with Traditional Medicines' Matcha Green Tea brand. I'll typically do 2-3 cups in the morn and then I'm solid throughout the day! 🍵 🕺
Matcha got me off coffee after years of daily use. I feel much better and I’m not craving caffeine as much. It really is longer lasting energy with no coffee crash. Thanks Dr berg.
I replaced my morning coffee with a morning Matcha. I love it. I add a piece of melted dark chocolate, coconut oil, cinnamon and vanilla. It tastes so rich and earthy and it looks fantastic.
If you're going to try Matcha tea, I recommend buying the bamboo whisk that goes with it...when I first tried Matcha, the clumpiness was a turn off. Sifting the powder and the whisk help greatly with it's enjoyment. Not gonna lie, it tastes like grass but a little honey and a touch of almond milk takes care of that. 😉
Cheesesteak22 ! Clumpy ? Really . But the organic one . I bought Ceres organic powdered matcha of Japan ( not from China ) . It’s smooth and good . No clumps , no need of whisker
My marker was not clumpy it was organic as well. My problem is I just don’t feel good after drinking it. I’m used to drinking a lot of nasty stuff, I’ve been on a natural kit since I was 12. I just can’t seem to get over the tummy ache afterwards
Just started drinking matcha latte in the morning made with coconut and/or almond milk. I add MCToil and a little cinnamon. It’s delicious and doesn’t cause reflux like coffee.
I'm an adrneal body type. Also have adrneal fatigue. Have been using coffee/ciggerettes for a very long time. I just made the switch two days ago. There's quite a few videos of various Macha latte recipes as well as a which Macha to buy. Amazon also has reviews to help you choose. Definitely buy a better quality Macha! I used to drink very strong coffee. I am experiencing a calmer feeling from the Macha, but I also am experiencing withdrawal. But I must say, I do feel better drinking Macha and have learned to really appreciate it!
I put ceremonial grade Matcha on my protein shake (whole grain oats,wheatgrass honey, whey protein isolate,virgin coconut oil) and boom! Faster weight loss, observed mental clarity, more endurance and I like its taste compared to coffee. I drink this as a post workout meal (sometimes as One Meal A Day) together with supplements (fish oil, ALA, COQ10,L-carnitine and optimen multivitamins) before going to work. What a superpacked meal and I am always looking forward to it rather than getting depressed. It feels good to be healthy! 💪😁
Up to 1/3 the weight of matcha is phytonutrient content w/ large amounts of egcg. It's extremely good for you as it encourages apoptosis, fat burning, and is a potent antioxidant as well (among other benefits).
It’s sooooo easy and satisfying switching from the coffee garbage I had been drinking everyday to this matcha tea. Completely love it cause it sort of replicates the texture of the flavored Starbucks and Dunkin coffees and it’s versatile like it also once experimenting with the Matcha.
I absolutely agree!..when l 1st switched my morning brew from fresh coffee to matcha l was really sceptical...there was no way this flimsy looking tea bag could rocket me through my day... How wrong l was..l managed to sustain my energy from 7am until lunch.. including an hour's work out cardio at the gym. I don't know the science behind this but..it works!.. I now have iced matcha with splash of lemonade every morning...works beautifully
@@thinkblue8089 shshsh l do both . . So your right l did switch back... but now pending my taste buds and whats left in the cuboard... l have to be honest Match tastes rank but the benefits is longer sustainable energy...coffee has better taste but short burst energy x
@@joannehaywood4708 I think I'm just going to go with organic green tea packets and add a natural sweetner like stevia or organic coconut sugar to it. Might drink black tea also. Then have coffee on occasion like weekends. thanks for your reply.
Just started this stuff a day ago - didn't miss my coffee. The taste isn't bad it's like a very strong green tea. Wanted to get away from the coffee because it's acidic and so can be tough on teeth. This is a great alternative. I drank mine plain just adding hot water
I absolutely love matcha. I have just switched from coffee to it and you are correct, I had none of the nasty headaches and withdrawals after giving up my 2-3 cups a day. I buy the Nutra Organics Matcha Latte mix and it is absolutely delicious. I just put that with some hot water and a little almond milk in my NutriBullet and it makes a yummy frothy latte. Or I have it over ice with almond milk on a hot day. I’m so glad I switched
What a coincidence, I drank a big bottle of matcha tea this afternoon after been off it for a couple of months :-) I have been gassy and constipated for 3 days and everything went away within 90 minutes after I drank this tea. Helps me a lot when I need to concentrate or have bowel/indigestion issues....when all else fails, matcha tea to the rescue. You guys need to try this tea out!!!
Lately I'm drinking yerba mate as well. Not as much as people in south america probably drink, but putting some in a cup, letting it infuse for 5 minutes and then drinking with a bombilla is really enjoyable.
I love Matcha lattes, beautiful vibrant green colour (as a fan of Japanese cuisine) My Matcha lattes are to die for been having them for years now. A regular staple in my diet. Down side expensive to buy! Looking back I think it helped me with the transition removing coffee. I was hooked for the health benefits lol.
I can vouch for that. Matcha butter latte + (optional) coconut milk (60% coconut from a can, not a carton). It powers you through the day with clarity and serenity, perfect for OMAD or a fat fast days ❤
Omg what a great idea! I never quit coffee because I find it to be more filling than tea (I make almond lattes) but I never tried matcha. Omw to order a bag. ❤ Thank you!
Love Matcha tea, use it for pre-workout. I add stevia, use to have it w flaxseed/ sometimes coconut milk but recently I can’t find anything that’s pure and doesn’t give me GI issues so sticking to water in my Matcha iced tea 🍵
Absolutely been loving my Matcha mornings for years now. Took me a little to figure out buying ceremonial matcha from Japan Uji mtn is my favorite smooth and lowest lead counts.
So blessed to find an online doctor who can teach me. I feel like I'm in med school and I am actually learning about natural ways God wanted us to take care of our body. AMEEENNN!
I made the switch for about 3 weeks now and so far it's been great! Stomach issues had me stopping my coffee routine and I love coffee but the matcha is so much easier on my stomach! Love it! ❤
I like coffee as a wake me up but green tea is awesome to feel evenly wakeful throughout the day. You don't feel as powered up as when you have coffee but you feel ready for just about anything. Stop having either 10-12 hours before you sleep or else you may be up all night.
I have been drinking only whole leaf teas for over 2 yrs now. I buy it from Mei Leaf, in London. Just bought some "Organic Ceremonial Matcha " tea and some "Uji Hikari Matcha" tea from Mei Leaf. They are awesome. They travel every year to China, Japan and elsewhere to source the best quality teas. Can't wait for my order to come in. Thanks for the heads up Dr Berg.
I'm not a coffee drinker but I love my matcha tea. I will say this about it first and most important be careful where you get your matcha. Places like Starbucks add a lot of sugar and crap in theirs. Second take some time and learn the proper way to prepare it. There's plenty of videos here on RUclips showing you how.
kantill true, Starbucks Matcha is horrible.. Very low quality and they add too much sweetener.. I make my own now ... I buy organic Japanese matcha and it’s amazing.
There are so many elements to prostate cancer treatment, iodine, no dairy, no alcohol, Japanese mushroom spore powder, krill oil, K2 to try to keep the bones healthy, selenium, NAC to stop cancer cell spread, CBT etc. However your expertise would help to clarify the issue in one video. If you have the time please make a video
Matcha is great but you always have to remember that all green teas prevent iron absorption, for these of us struggling to retain decent iron levels. You can always get l-theanine from supplements.
The vitamin C helps iron absorption this is common knowledge, but iron and vitamin c should be consumed hours before drinking tea, I am just saying that people who drink tea every few hours, need to watch their iron absorption. So many women have low ferritin and normal haemoglobin. It is something to watch out for
I put half tea spoon matcha in my oat and I add apple and walnut or tahini. That way it's good because sometimes I find it too strong the taste of it. But it's so healthy so that I introduced it in my diet 😍
This is my challenge to myself!! Coffee is so acidic!! Worst bathroom trips multiple times each morning should inspire me to switch!!! Love ur videos Dr Berg!! Ty!!!!
well it is too acidic or it is bitter? those are different things, because when it is bitter it is burned coffee, I can handle pretty much everything about coffee, literally all my family can have a muy before and they can sleep, also I drink the coffee in espresso like way using a moka pot, Italian coffee make that makes the coffee super concentrated, I drink it straight without sugar and it doesn't wake me up either, before any people assuming I withdraw coffee several times without headaches and any of that stuff
Try cold brew dark roasted Arabica and even add a pinch (a small pinch) of baking soda, if you want a less acidic coffee... Lower the roast, greener the coffee and more acidic the contents.
had my first cup of matcha today and it was okay, i used sweetener to counter the bitter part, then it started to getting better and when i added milk it was so delicious i drank like 4 cups lol
Wow I'm on my 3rd day of transitioning from coffee to matcha and telling it to my friends. RUclips is spying on me lol. But glad to see that it still recommends this channel. I hope this channel get more exposure to people.
my life really changed since i been using matcha and l-theanine its wonderfull no anxiety more focus and helped me quit drinking i just feel so great try it up everyone!
I have definitely reduced my coffee to one cup when I get to work. Then I move on to caffeine teas after that but have never tried Matcha but will definitely give it a try.
Philip Mc Adam I recommend buying the bamboo whisk that goes with it...when I first tried Matcha, the clumpiness was a turn off. Sifting the powder and the whisk help greatly.
Philip Mc Adam I've found adding some cinnamon along with almond milk and honey to be quite enjoyable 😉 (approx. 4oz filtered hot water added to 1-2 tsp Matcha/shake or two of cinnamon powder with 4oz warm almond milk sweetened with 1-2 tsp honey) 😋
this is real, I was a hardcore coffee addict, but now drink 4 - 6 cups of matcha green tea a day. I have been addicted to pain killers for nearly 6 months and switching to matcha gave me absolutely the same mellow buzz feeling that I get from over the counter drugs. it's amazing. (I'm longer taking any pills) (I use actual matcha powder and an electric milk frother to make the tea)
I bought some yesterday and tomorrow morning will be DAY ONE - My coffee is Army Strong, and my body has become so adaptive to it now, that I get little to no effects from the caffeine in it. It's time to make a switch.
Hi Dr Berg. I love your videos and have learn so much. This is concerning Macha tea, why do I have a stomach ache every time I drink this. The same thing happens when I have some green powdered form of greens. I love fresh greens when I make a smoothie but I can’t seem to tolerate powdered greens. Amy idea?
Dear Doctor, My daughter is on high dose Coumadin for hypercoagulable blood from Lupus. She must not eat green vegetables because it probably thins the blood and may thin it too much. Do you think she is allowed to drink matcha tea? Thanks in advance for the answer (even though the video is already 4 years old) 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Great video! This awesome for me. I can't drink drink coffee due to high blood pressure, but sometimes i need the energy that caffeine provides. Perfect option for me. Thanks for sharing!
I love it, but I did want to see how you felt about it. It did take a little getting used to, maybe a few days at the most, but now I LOVE it! It's delicious!...I'm so glad to see you approve!
Hello Dr. Berg! should i avoid matcha tea powder while i am fasting? do the calories in the powder have a negligible metabolic effect... or will it break a fast? Thanks for the videos, i enjoy the presentation as much as the content!
Carbohydrates matcha are extremely small. 10 cups of matcha day would get you to about 2 or 3g of Carbohydrates. One cup is hardly going to break the bank but if you are concerned get a blood sugar level test.
Hi Dr Berg is matcha tea good for diabetics. I have seen some videos that say it isn’t good and some say it is good. Can you please help and let me know I have Diabetes and trying to change my life to a more healthier way. Thank you
Never had this tea before. I'll give it a try. I love my coffee 😄...in the evenings usually I'm very tiered ( having a little child, takes a lot of energy) so, I have to drink a second coffee. I'd like to drink this tea instead. I'm scared I'll hate the taste 🙃...tomorrow I'll try it out. Thank you Dr Berg. So grateful for all your advice ☺
Adding chicory may be beneficial cause it helps strengthen gut flora as it has inulin But it’s not considered damp like bananas that also have inulin too but are damp .Dr Berg can ya do a video on beneficial ways to strengthen gut flora and how there are two sides of the line on one is damp foods like fig and banana and on the other side of the line are foods like chicory that aren’t damp and build gut flora . This world seems to be split by polarity , our vitamins are d or l , like r and s in stereo chemistry , our environment too is day or night , sexes are male and or female , and so I noticed the same thing while looking into gut flora builder foods that are split as well , where chicory is on one side w
I usually do my matcha tea with a couple drops of sweet orange essential oil and a couple drops liquid stevia. Usually with coconut milk and coconut oil or MCT oil. I really like it! But not without the drops. Does the essential oil have an effect on ketosis?
Jade leaf organic is delicious I was taking the Whole Foods 365 and started making feel bad I am a believer now make sure your getting clean top notch because also learned teas can have lead and arsenic so be picky
I've been ordering Jade leaf organic japanese matcha 100% pure ground green tea powder ceremonial grade from Amazon.I really like it with a little lemon juice no sugar no milk.
Well, a week ago, I started to drink Matcha instead of coffee, and I feel terribly tired and have headache.. I drink 2 cups=two tee spoons of Matcha a day.
Coffee is replaced by decafe, and my caffiene is in the tea at the moment. Successful change over. I do not like the caffiene much after all. I like coffee without it.
Can't drink tea pretty much also convert energy into natural energy least that's what I heard and that's what it seems like because I drank coffee mixed with it and it makes me not jittery
Please Dr. Eric is this truly a Fact? If you say it is then I am going to try it for myself. I am a regular green tea drinker 2-4 cups a day. If matcha is equivalent to 10x cups per 1x cup then I will make the switch. Thanks
Dr. Berg, I am on IF about 18- 20hr. ( with help of your videos)😊👍 So there is no calorie on coffee so I can have it in the morning. But matcha has a calorie. What will be your suggestion? When and how is good to use matcha if I am on IF? I hope you will reply?!🙏

I have been addicted to pain killers for nearly 6 months and switching to matcha gave me absolutely the same mellow buzz feeling that I get from over the counter drugs. it's amazing. (I'm longer taking any pills) (I use actual matcha powder and an electric milk frother to make the tea)
Tip: use barista version of oat milk in your Matcha(froth) . Taste Amazing
Is it lowering or increase blood pressure,sir? I have low blood pressure is it safe to consume matcha?
I bought some yesterday and tomorrow morning will be DAY ONE - My coffee is Army Strong, and my body has become so adaptive to it now, that I get little to no effects from the caffeine in it. It's time to make a switch.
Hi Dr Berg, how about coffee and matcha mix? Would these two compliment each other in moderation though. Like a daily cup.
Hi Dr Berg. I love your videos and have learn so much. This is concerning Macha tea, why do I have a stomach ache every time I drink this. The same thing happens when I have some green powdered form of greens. I love fresh greens when I make a smoothie but I can’t seem to tolerate powdered greens. Amy idea?
Dear Doctor,
My daughter is on high dose Coumadin for hypercoagulable blood from Lupus.
She must not eat green vegetables because it probably thins the blood and may thin it too much.
Do you think she is allowed to drink matcha tea?
Thanks in advance for the answer (even though the video is already 4 years old)

Great video! This awesome for me. I can't drink drink coffee due to high blood pressure, but sometimes i need the energy that caffeine provides. Perfect option for me. Thanks for sharing!

@@setyowibowo6598 I heard it's good for it, because it helps lower bad cholesterol/LDL
I love it, but I did want to see how you felt about it. It did take a little getting used to, maybe a few days at the most, but now I LOVE it! It's delicious!...I'm so glad to see you approve!
I did this in December 2017 and have no interest in drinking coffee now!
Still smells good but I can’t stand the flavor.
Hello Dr. Berg! should i avoid matcha tea powder while i am fasting? do the calories in the powder have a negligible metabolic effect... or will it break a fast? Thanks for the videos, i enjoy the presentation as much as the content!
Carbohydrates matcha are extremely small. 10 cups of matcha day would get you to about 2 or 3g of Carbohydrates.
One cup is hardly going to break the bank but if you are concerned get a blood sugar level test.
It won't break your fast.
Hi Dr Berg is matcha tea good for diabetics. I have seen some videos that say it isn’t good and some say it is good. Can you please help and let me know I have Diabetes and trying to change my life to a more healthier way. Thank you

I drink this every morning and I love it 🍵
Dr. Berg, you’re my favorite RUclips health channel 💚💚🍵
I can't drink coffee (even decaf) because of IBS,.. so i tried matcha and didn't triggered my IBS since then
That's great. Thanks for sharing your story here.
Never had this tea before. I'll give it a try. I love my coffee 😄...in the evenings usually I'm very tiered ( having a little child, takes a lot of energy) so, I have to drink a second coffee. I'd like to drink this tea instead. I'm scared I'll hate the taste 🙃...tomorrow I'll try it out.
Thank you Dr Berg. So grateful for all your advice ☺
Adding chicory may be beneficial cause it helps strengthen gut flora as it has inulin But it’s not considered damp like bananas that also have inulin too but are damp .Dr Berg can ya do a video on beneficial ways to strengthen gut flora and how there are two sides of the line on one is damp foods like fig and banana and on the other side of the line are foods like chicory that aren’t damp and build gut flora . This world seems to be split by polarity , our vitamins are d or l , like r and s in stereo chemistry , our environment too is day or night , sexes are male and or female , and so I noticed the same thing while looking into gut flora builder foods that are split as well , where chicory is on one side w
Did you mean to replace your coffee with your Matcha tea? I think you said it the other way around in the beginning of the video
I usually do my matcha tea with a couple drops of sweet orange essential oil and a couple drops liquid stevia. Usually with coconut milk and coconut oil or MCT oil. I really like it! But not without the drops. Does the essential oil have an effect on ketosis?
I actually like to add some butter and sea salt to my matcha :)
Jade leaf organic is delicious I was taking the Whole Foods 365 and started making feel bad I am a believer now make sure your getting clean top notch because also learned teas can have lead and arsenic so be picky
I've been ordering Jade leaf organic japanese matcha 100% pure ground green tea powder ceremonial grade from Amazon.I really like it with a little lemon juice no sugar no milk.
Well, a week ago, I started to drink Matcha instead of coffee, and I feel terribly tired and have headache.. I drink 2 cups=two tee spoons of Matcha a day.
Did you mean replace your coffee with matcha tea?
You said replace matcha tea with your coffee.
😂😂😂
Yes!😛
Gouk Wapanzy yes,he did🤣
Needs some sugar in his brain.
Thought the same thing but I knew what he meant. Lol.
How should I prepare matcha? I prefer cold drinks and sweet if possible.
Coffee is replaced by decafe, and my caffiene is in the tea at the moment. Successful change over. I do not like the caffiene much after all. I like coffee without it.
Can't drink tea pretty much also convert energy into natural energy least that's what I heard and that's what it seems like because I drank coffee mixed with it and it makes me not jittery
Can I use Matcha tea as an enema that I retain until it is fully absorbed?
I like how it looks on the photo ... Is it with Milk ? Any recipe ?
I will definitely try it. Thank you for this video Dr. Berg.
Most welcome! Be well!

I’ve always drank green tea but my intuition told me there is a better one out there
Thanks I’ll buy some 👍

yeah finally, welcome to the matcha club ! :P (btw, I still drink bullet-proof coffee on "matcha" off days).
I just recently did this and the calming effect is true
Please Dr. Eric is this truly a Fact? If you say it is then I am going to try it for myself. I am a regular green tea drinker 2-4 cups a day. If matcha is equivalent to 10x cups per 1x cup then I will make the switch. Thanks
What do you think about Yerba Mate?
We will add this to our video suggestion list for now. Thanks.

Hey Dr. Berg, can Matcha tea be had during intermittent fasting? Would that not break the fast?
Dr. Berg, I am on IF about 18- 20hr. ( with help of your videos)😊👍
So there is no calorie on coffee so I can have it in the morning. But matcha has a calorie. What will be your suggestion? When and how is good to use matcha if I am on IF?
I hope you will reply?!🙏
I mix one tsp of matcha with 6 oz. of coffee, 1 pack of stevia and 2 tbsp of heavy whipping cream and i feel great all day
Very healthy, but for people heavy strength training is this really advisable? Greatly increases SHBG= reduced DHT and free Testosterone no?
Love my matcha latte 🍵 replaced coffee as my daily morning ritual
So glad I stopped drinking coffee and switched to this!
Tastes much better too!
Thanks for your comment.
Do you have any information on Yerba Mate? It's a tea from South America and I love it!
Can it help to stop heavy periods?
HI Dr Berg, does drinking weak or diluted Matcha still have health benefits?
