It took us sampling of nothing less than 5 grades of culinary matcha before we settled for the matcha we sell
—
Not all matcha is created equal
—
We have seen different colors of matcha from vibrant green all the way to low quality black looking matcha
—
So what’s the difference? Dive in!
—
In summary there are two types of matcha - culinary and ceremonial
—
Culinary matcha is often used to make smoothies, matcha lattes; baking and drinking —
Ceremonial matcha as the name implies is used in Japanese ceremonies
—
What’s the difference
—
Ceremonial grade matcha is made from the youngest tea leaves thus giving it a vibrant green color
Culinary grade matcha is also made from young tea leaves, but they are just a bit older
—
High quality Culinary grade matcha is also green, but not as vibrant and as the quality reduces it may have a dark green or even brown color
——
Both matcha grades are great, depending on what you want to use them for
Ceremonial grade matcha could be as high as triple the price of culinary grade matcha —
Culinary grade matcha on the other hand is much affordable and can be used in, smoothies,lattes and is more suited for everyday drinking

I’m sure you’re like whaat 😱😱 Palmwine? A healthy drink? Stay with us....
Yes!!!! you can also make your own palm wine- here comes my inner chemical Engineer 👩🏽🏭
Probiotic-rich palm-wine also know as “Palmie”in the southern part of Nigeria is rich in probiotics which is amazing for your gut
You know fermented foods/drink are good for you
Probiotics are used to improve digestion and restore normal flora. Probiotics have been used to treat bowel problems (such as diarrhea, irritable bowel), eczema, vaginal yeast infections, lactose intolerance, and urinary tract infections
What you need:
Water (cool and hot)
Sugar ( cane)
Yeast
Balloon (to check fermentation)
Rubber band
Directions:
Dissolve the yeast in warm water
Add the sugar and mix thoroughly
Pour the yeast mix into the bottle with cool water, cover and shake gently
Remove the cover, place the balloon on the rim of the bottle and push the rest of the balloon inside the bottle
Store in a dark place for 48-72 hours
After 48 hours you’d get a white solution with bubbles in it and the balloon would be inflated
You’ll also see some residue at the bottom
Take off the balloon, cover, then shake well
Enjoy your drink!
Warning further fermentation will give you raw alcohol which we DO NOT RECOMMEND
Is palm wine a yay or nay for you?

We posted earlier about Rhubarb being an anti oxidant? .
What Do You Know about anti oxidants anyway 🤷🏻♀️
Antioxidants are substances that can PREVENT or slow DAMAGE to cells caused by free radicals due to pollution, UV exposure, cigarette smoke etc
They are also called "free-radical scavengers."
And they are linked to heart disease, cancer, arthritis, stroke,Parkinson's disease etc
Antioxidants help neutralize free radicals and this boosts overall health.
Sources of antioxidants can be natural or artificial
But you know we ALWAYS prefer plant-based antioxidants
Anti oxidant Sources
Most fruits and vegetables eg goji berries and blueberries
Nuts and seeds eg sunflower
Leafy vegetables eg spinach and kale
Beta-carotene eg carrots
Lycopene eg tomatoes
Cruciferous vegetables eg broccoli
Herbs eg Rhubarb
And you know we have got ALL items listed in stock
So there you go- how did you find your science 101 lectures? Hit us up in the comments section if we broke it down good
.
Today we will be introducing the all colorful cancer extinguisher to brighten your day!
If you know anyone who dreads cancer and is a fan of preventative measures, tag them now to get some Rhubarb and live healthy
Rhubarb contains polyphenols which have been shown to selectively kill or prevent the growth of cancer cells
These polyphenols are also what makes rhubarb an excellent antioxidant
As an Anti- inflammatory, Rhubarb is also used to reduce pain associated with pancreas swelling (inflammation)
We have been discussing natural laxatives in the past days; it is imperative to mention that rhubarb treats constipation without creating a “lazy bowel,” which is a common side effect of repeated use of over-the-counter laxatives
Stimulates red blood cells
The trace amounts of copper and iron found in rhubarb are enough to stimulate the production of new red blood cells
This increased oxygenation of essential areas of the body including the brain makes it an excellent neuroprotective agent which could help prevent Alzheimer's disease
Bone growth and repair Rhubarb is also a great source of vitamin K1, which is important for blood clotting and bone health
Rhubarb is colorful and flavorful, yet underappreciated but now you know it’s intense benefits
