Kann man mit Matcha abnehmen?

Can you lose weight with matcha?

Matcha is on everyone's lips – not only because of its fresh taste and gentle energy, but also because of its powerful ingredients . More and more often, we hear: "Matcha helps with weight loss." But is that really true? And if so, how does it work?

In this article, you'll learn how matcha can boost your metabolism , support fat burning, and regulate cravings—and why it's an ideal companion for a conscious, healthy lifestyle.

Why Matcha Can Help You Lose Weight

Matcha contains a unique combination of natural caffeine , EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) – a powerful antioxidant – and L-theanine , which balances body and mind. These active ingredients have proven positive effects on metabolism, fat burning, and energy levels .

Benefits of Matcha for weight loss:

  • Supports calorie consumption

  • Stimulates fat metabolism

  • Reduces cravings and snacking

  • Provides long-lasting energy without sugar or crash

  • Can increase fat burning with regular consumption

How Matcha supports metabolism

Matcha is rich in catechins , especially EGCG. Studies show that these antioxidants increase energy expenditure , the basal metabolic rate of calories your body burns—even at rest. This effect is enhanced when combined with caffeine.

In short:
Matcha can help your body burn more calories – without any additional exercise.

Matcha also supports thermogenesis —the production of heat in the body, which uses energy (calories). This process is particularly relevant for fat burning .

Matcha vs. coffee – which is better for weight loss?

Unlike coffee, the caffeine in matcha works gently and consistently —without jittery spikes or post-caffeine cravings. Matcha provides you with long-lasting energy, supporting you even with an active lifestyle, without disrupting your blood sugar.

Coffee:

  • Short caffeine peak

  • Often with sugar or milk

  • Can promote cravings

Matcha:

  • Consistent energy for hours

  • No blood sugar fluctuations

  • Satisfying & balancing

When Matcha is particularly useful for losing weight

  • In the morning instead of coffee: a gentle start to the day, without cravings

  • Before your workout: Natural pre-workout with focus and fat burning

  • In the afternoon: Ideal against the afternoon slump – without sweets

  • As part of the fasting routine: Supports fasting phases with energy and antioxidants

Tip: Drink matcha pure or with unsweetened plant milk – without syrup or added sugar – to maximize the positive effects.
