How to make matcha tea to control spikes in blood sugar

MINH CHÂU (THEO HEALTHSHOTS) |

Here is how to make matcha tea to help control blood sugar in diabetics.

Matcha tea contains many antioxidants and polyphenols, so it has the effect of improving insulin sensitivity and reducing blood sugar levels.

To make matcha tea, you need to prepare the following ingredients:

- 1/2 tablespoon organic matcha powder.

- 1 cup of hot water.

Then, follow these steps:

- Squeeze matcha flour into a cup.

- Add about 2 tablespoons of water to the powder.

- Stir well and make sure there are no lumps.

- Once the mixture is smooth, add the remaining water to the cup and mix continuously to form an ice cream mixture.

Although it is good for the blood sugar of diabetics, when you drink too much matcha every day, you may experience some side effects:

- Matcha tea has many benefits, but this drink contains caffeine, which can cause anxiety and increase heart rate, especially in people who are sensitive to caffeine.

- High catechin content can make your stomach uncomfortable and cause nausea.

- Can put pressure on the liver due to high levels of antioxidants.

- Drinking too much matcha can also lead to hypoglycemia.

Before regularly including matcha in your diet, you should consult your doctor, especially if you are taking diabetes medication.
