Atma Chai
Atma Chaï
Five spices
Atma Chaï is adapted for sports practiced in cold weather. Atma Chai is deliberately free of black tea, as caffeine is an iron chelator. Caffeine reduces the level of iron, which is essential for the production of red blood cells that carry oxygen in the blood. Thus, Atma Chaï is suitable for sports that require a very high consumption of oxygen.
