When stress strikes, leaving you feeling restless and distracted, it can be difficult to bring things back into focus. L-theanine is like a meditation session in a bottle—it supports your natural pathways to relaxation without causing drowsiness, and preliminary studies show it may help to ease aspects of normal everyday stress, including occasional anxiety and tension. This makes it an excellent choice for calm focus during the day—or any time you need to keep calm and carry on. Serene Science® L-Theanine contains 200 mg Suntheanine®, a patented, pure form of this beneficial compound.*

L-Theanine is an amino acid found almost exclusively in the tea plant Camellia sinensis and contributes to the unusual taste of green tea. Human studies have shown that taking L-theanine affects the emission of alpha waves in the brain associated with states of relaxation and focused attention. Preliminary research has shown that L-theanine crosses the blood-brain barrier and suggests that it may support healthy neurotransmitter levels in the brain. It may also inhibit the stimulatory properties of caffeine, to support a calm but alert state of mind.*
