00:00:02.765 --> 00:00:05.265 
Surprised by the effect of matcha tea in stimulating hair growth. 

00:00:05.825 --> 00:00:07.385 
1. Increased blood circulation 

00:00:07.385 --> 00:00:11.633 
According to research published in the
journal Molecule, matcha tea contains 

00:00:11.633 --> 00:00:13.565 
19-44mg of caffeine per 1g. 

00:00:14.325 --> 00:00:17.765 
Caffeine in this tea can increase blood
circulation to the scalp and ensure your 

00:00:17.765 --> 00:00:19.485 
hair follicles receive nutrients for hair growth. 

00:00:20.085 --> 00:00:21.845 
2. Reduced hormones that cause hair loss 

00:00:21.845 --> 00:00:24.965 
Dihydrotestosterone or DST is the
cause of hair loss. 

00:00:24.965 --> 00:00:29.424 
3. Epigallocatechin gallate in matcha
tea can inhibit 5-alpha-reductase, an 

00:00:29.424 --> 00:00:32.545 
enzyme that can convert
testosterone into DST. 

00:00:33.285 --> 00:00:36.925 
By reducing DST, matcha tea can prevent
hair follicle contraction, a major cause 

00:00:36.925 --> 00:00:39.165 
of hair loss in both men and women. 

00:00:39.785 --> 00:00:40.905 
4. Reduces inflammation 

00:00:40.905 --> 00:00:44.168 
According to research published in the
international journal of radi 

00:00:44.168 --> 00:00:47.105 
radiological biology in 2024, matcha
also has anti-inflammatory properties. 

00:00:47.645 --> 00:00:50.971 
Its anti-inflammatory properties can
help soothe your scalp and prevent 

00:00:50.971 --> 00:00:53.965 
conditions such as eczema, seborrheic
dermatitis or scalp psoriasis, 

00:00:53.965 --> 00:00:55.765 
can hinder hair growth. 

00:00:56.385 --> 00:00:59.845 
If your scalp is healthy and not
irritated, hair can grow back.
