Lately, I’ve seen people claiming that matcha is making their hair fall out, so let’s talk about it. Matcha isn’t the problem. Overconsumption is. When we overdo caffeine in any form, our nervous system becomes overstimulated and our minerals, especially iron and magnesium, start to deplete. That imbalance can affect everything from hormone regulation to hair growth. It’s not that matcha causes hair loss, it’s that an already stressed or undernourished body can’t properly absorb or utilize nutrients when we keep pushing it. The key isn’t cutting out one of the most nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich plants on the planet, it’s finding balance, supporting your adrenals, your minerals, and your nervous system so your body can thrive. High-quality, ceremonial-grade matcha, like the kind I source from Uji, Kyoto, actually supports your system when it’s consumed intentionally: ✨ L-theanine calms the nervous system and promotes steady focus ✨ Chlorophyll helps gently detoxify and oxygenate the blood ✨ Antioxidants protect against oxidative stress ✨ Slow-release caffeine supports energy without the crash My matcha at @Shayna’s kitchen is organic, stone-ground in small batches, and kept refrigerated until it’s shipped to preserve its nutrients and freshness. No fillers, no heavy metals, no mold. Just pure, vibrant green tea. So no, matcha isn’t making your hair fall out. If you’re noticing changes in your hair, look deeper: at your minerals, your stress, your sleep, and your caffeine balance as a whole. When used with intention, matcha doesn’t drain you, it helps bring your body back to balance. 🤍 #shaynasjourney #shaynasmatcha #guthealth #hairhealth #nervoussystemhealing
