L-Theanine (From Green Tea Extract)

Description

L-Theanine is an amino acid analogue - meaning that its chemical structure closely resembles some of the amino acids used as building blocks for proteins. This compound is abundant in the leaves of high-grade, shade-grown green tea plants (Camellia sinensis).

This compound gives green tea many of its cognitive-enhancement and relaxing qualities. Its effects are often referred to as a “clear-headed focus”. It induces a state of calm and is often used in combination with Caffeine to reduce side effects such as the ‘jitters’.

Our L-Theanine is derived from green tea extract and comes in an easy to swallow capsule and powder version, giving you the flexibility in terms of dosage.

Benefits

Stress
L-Theanine has been shown to promote relaxation by increasing alpha brain wave activity. Alpha waves are associated with a state of wakeful relaxation, similar to what is achieved during meditation.

Mental Focus and Alertness
While L-Theanine has a calming effect, it can also improve mental focus and alertness. Some research suggests that it may enhance attention and cognitive performance, particularly when combined with caffeine.

Sleep Quality
Although L-Theanine is not sedating, it may help improve sleep quality by promoting relaxation before bedtime. Aiding in deeper, more restful sleep.

Antioxidant Properties
Green tea extract, the source of L-Theanine, contains antioxidants such as polyphenols, which can help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. These antioxidants may contribute to overall health and well-being.

Cardiovascular Health
Some research suggests that L-Theanine may help promote cardiovascular health by helping to maintain healthy blood pressure.
