Think running a marathon is demanding? Try growing a human. Pregnancy is the ultimate test of endurance. Your body works 24/7, often leaving you drained of energy, hydration, and immune strength.
So what’s a safe, natural way to feel steady and supported? That’s where matcha comes in — and specifically, Tatsu Tea. With just 52 mg of clean caffeine from real Japanese matcha (well below the 200 mg/day guideline from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists), plus electrolytes, vitamin C, and zinc, Tatsu delivers gentle energy, hydration support, and immune-boosting nutrients in every can.
The key is moderation and quality. Here’s what the science says about caffeine in pregnancy, how matcha compares to coffee or energy drinks, and why Tatsu Tea may be the smarter choice when you need clean, sustained energy during your pregnancy.
Why Pregnancy Drains Energy, Hydration, and Immunity
Pregnancy ramps up your body’s workload in ways few other experiences can:
-
Energy: Fatigue is one of the most common pregnancy symptoms. Hormones, increased blood volume, and the constant demands of fetal growth leave many moms-to-be exhausted.
-
Hydration: Fluid needs increase dramatically. Dehydration can worsen nausea, trigger headaches, and even affect amniotic fluid levels.
-
Immunity: The immune system shifts during pregnancy, which can leave you more vulnerable to colds, flu, and other infections.
Meeting these needs through nutrition and smart choices makes a real difference in how you feel day to day.
The Truth About Caffeine in Pregnancy
Here’s what the experts agree on:
-
ACOG (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists): Keep caffeine under 200 mg per day during pregnancy.
-
NHS (UK): The same 200 mg limit.
-
March of Dimes: Recommends staying at or below 200 mg daily.
A standard 8 oz coffee can pack 95 –165 mg of caffeine. Two cups can push you right up to the limit. Matcha, by contrast, is more moderate: usually 30 – 70 mg per serving.
Tatsu Tea comes in at 52 mg of caffeine per can — a safe, steady dose that’s well under the daily limit.
Why Matcha Feels Different Than Coffee
The caffeine in matcha isn’t the same as the caffeine in coffee. Matcha is naturally rich in L-theanine, an amino acid that slows caffeine absorption, creating a longer-lasting, smoother energy lift without the spikes and crashes.
For pregnancy, this matters: steady energy is easier on your system than big surges.
Where Tatsu Tea Stands Out
Not all matcha is created equal. Here’s what makes Tatsu Tea different:
-
52 mg clean caffeine → A safe, moderate amount that fits within daily pregnancy guidelines.
-
Electrolytes → Support hydration when your body needs more fluid balance than ever.
-
Vitamin C + Zinc → Nutrients that help bolster your immune system when it’s working differently during pregnancy.
-
No added sugar, no artificial junk, no carbonation → Just clean, refreshing fuel.
Safe Practices for Drinking Matcha in Pregnancy
-
Track total caffeine from all sources: tea, coffee, chocolate, soda, even some medications.
-
Stay under 200 mg/day → With Tatsu Tea at 52 mg, you can have one or two cans comfortably and still leave room for other sources.
-
Time it smart → Drink matcha away from iron-rich meals or prenatal vitamins, since tea (all varieties!) can reduce iron absorption when consumed with meals.
-
Hydrate well → Matcha is gentle, but fluid needs are higher in pregnancy. Keep water intake high alongside Tatsu.
-
Always listen to your body → If you feel jittery or notice sleep issues, cut back or space it out.
Moderation matters, that’s why sticking with a safe, moderate source like Tatsu makes sense.
Bottom Line
Pregnancy is the hardest performance test your body will ever face. To get through it feeling your best, you need energy, hydration, and immune support.
Tatsu Tea delivers all three in one ready-to-drink can. With 52 mg of clean matcha caffeine, plus electrolytes, vitamin C, and zinc, it’s a smarter way to fuel your body — without going near the 200 mg/day caffeine limit set by leading medical organizations.
It’s not just safe in moderation. It’s a performance drink designed to support you through the toughest, most important endurance challenge of your life.
