Theanine, L - Theanine

L-Theanine is an amino acid naturally found in green tea. Scientific evidence shows that Theanine stimulates the brain's production of alpha waves, making the user feel relaxed but alert and not drowsy. Alpha waves are the brain waves associated with a meditative state.

Theanine also helps the body produce other calming amino acids, such as:

• L-Dopamine:

  • Is an important neurotransmitter in the brain, essential for proper brain functioning.

  • Is critical to the way the brain controls our movements.

  • Controls the flow of information between areas of the brain, especially memory, attention and problem-solving tasks.

  • Is used as a help for Parkinson’s Disease

  As dopamine is released we experience feelings of enjoyment and become more motivated to do, or continue to do activities.

  Without enough dopamine we feel fatigued, depressed, and experience a lack of drive and motivation.

• GABA:

  A non-essential amino acid which functions as an inhibitory calming neurotransmitter in your brain

  Other benefits of GABA include:

  • May reduce symptoms of alcohol withdrawal.

  • May reduce symptoms of anxiety.

  • May help maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

  • May help suppress appetite.

  • May help with premenstrual symptoms.

  • May help alleviate stress, frustration remorse and tension.
