Intermittent fasting has become one of the most popular wellness strategies for weight management, metabolic health, mental clarity, and longevity. But fasting isn’t always easy — especially when you’re just starting out. Hunger pangs, energy crashes, and brain fog can sabotage your goals.
That’s where Pique’s fasting teas—specifically their Fasting Matcha and Ginger Green Tea—come into play. These carefully crafted, science-backed blends support the fasting process by curbing hunger, boosting energy, and enhancing mental focus, all without breaking your fast.
In this post, we’ll break down how fasting works, the challenges it presents, and how Pique’s teas help you fast smarter — not harder.
What is Intermittent Fasting?
Intermittent fasting (IF) is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of eating and fasting. Common methods include:
- 16/8 (fast for 16 hours, eat within an 8-hour window)
- 5:2 (eat normally 5 days a week, restrict calories for 2 days)
- OMAD (One Meal A Day)
When done correctly, fasting can support:
- Weight loss by lowering insulin levels and increasing fat burning
- Cellular repair through autophagy (the body’s process of cleaning out damaged cells)
- Reduced inflammation
- Improved metabolic markers like blood sugar and cholesterol
- Mental clarity due to stabilized blood glucose levels
However, fasting isn’t always smooth sailing.
Common Challenges with Fasting
- Hunger and cravings
- Low energy and fatigue
- Irritability and mood swings (a.k.a. “hanger”)
- Difficulty concentrating
- Dehydration or electrolyte imbalances
Pique’s Fasting Matcha and Ginger Green Tea were designed to combat these exact challenges, helping you stay in a fasted state longer, more comfortably, and with better results.
Introducing Pique’s Fasting Teas: A Smarter Way to Fast
Let’s dive into how each tea supports fasting and overall wellness:
-
Fasting Matcha Green Tea
This premium, ceremonial-grade matcha is shaded for maximum chlorophyll production and harvested from organic tea gardens in Japan. What makes it ideal for fasting?
- Sustained energy without jitters: Matcha contains both caffeine and L-theanine. This combo provides a calm, focused energy that lasts for hours without the crash. Perfect for morning fasting.
- Appetite suppression: Caffeine and catechins (like EGCG) have been shown to help reduce hunger naturally.
- Boosts metabolism: Matcha supports thermogenesis (fat-burning) while preserving muscle.
- Supports autophagy: The powerful polyphenols in green tea help amplify the cellular repair process triggered during fasting.
Pique’s Matcha is cold-extracted using their patented process, preserving delicate compounds for maximum bioavailability and potency.
-
Fasting Ginger Green Tea
This blend combines organic green tea with spicy ginger and mint for a refreshing, soothing experience.
- Calms the stomach: Ginger has long been used to ease nausea and support digestion.
- Reduces inflammation: Both green tea and ginger are rich in anti-inflammatory compounds.
- Helps curb cravings: Ginger and mint can naturally reduce appetite and soothe the digestive tract, making fasting more comfortable.
- Boosts fat oxidation: Green tea catechins encourage your body to use fat for fuel.
Both teas contain zero sugar, no additives, and are tested for purity (triple toxin screening for mold, heavy metals, and pesticides), ensuring you’re supporting your fast — not breaking it.
Why Pique’s Crystals Are Better Than Brewed Tea
Pique’s patented cold-extraction process turns whole-leaf teas into crystals without losing potency. These crystals:
- Dissolve instantly in hot or cold water
- Preserve the full antioxidant profile of the tea
- Are easier to absorb and more effective than steeped tea
- Provide consistent quality, potency, and flavor
With no steeping, no bags, and no mess, you can take your fasting teas anywhere — from home to office to gym.
When and How to Use Pique Fasting Teas
Morning: Start your fast with a cup of Fasting Matcha to boost energy and enhance focus. It’s an ideal coffee alternative that won’t spike cortisol.
Midday or Afternoon: Sip on Fasting Ginger Green Tea to suppress cravings, soothe digestion, and stay energized through your fasted window.
You can drink both teas throughout your fasted period — they are designed to support fat burning and autophagy without insulin spikes.
