Helps Reduce Anxiety L-Theanine is a unique amino acid found almost exclusively in the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) and is the primary ingredient contributing to the unusual taste of green tea. Animal studies have shown that L-theanine crosses the blood brain barrier, increases dopamine and GABA levels in the brain, and inhibits the stimulatory properties of caffeine. Human studies have shown that taking L-theanine results in the emission of brain waves associated with a state of relaxation. Suitable for vegetarians and hypoallergenic.

"i bought this brand because of the dosage - 200 mg instead of 100 mg - and there is a savings that goes along with that. however, the nsi brand works better and is still a good value."

"I read an article on a study that was done in Japan using L-Theanine to help people get better rest. So, I saw that Vitacost had the product and I ordered some. I have been using it for over a year. I can honestly say that taking just one tablet per night has helped me tremendously. I am finally getting the deep sleep that I haven't had in years. I have reccommened this product to a number of my friends and they have all said that it has helped them as well. I would give this product a 5 start rating."
