L-Theanine
L-Theanine is an amino acid found in tea leaves (Camellia sinensis). It’s known for calming and relaxing the brain without causing drowsiness. This amino acid can cross the blood-brain barrier, allowing it to interact with brain receptors and neurotransmitters.
Researchers believe L-theanine promotes relaxation by increasing the production of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), serotonin, and dopamine. These neurotransmitters help regulate mood and stress levels.
Because of its ability to reduce feelings of stress, L-theanine is often taken as a dietary supplement or used as an ingredient in various beverages. In fact, L-theanine is frequently used alongside caffeine to promote alertness and productivity without the jitters or anxiety associated with consuming caffeine alone.
L-Theanine has been shown in scientific studies to:
- Ease the effects of stress on the nervous system
- Support brain health and cognitive function
- Encourage relaxation and support healthy sleep
- Calm occasional feelings of anxiety
- Support a healthy cardiovascular system
- Support a normal immune response
