What isPure L Theanine Powder?

Theanine is an amino acid found in tea and some mushrooms. It comes in two forms: Pure l theanine powder and D-theanine. L-theanine is the most common form.

Theanine is similar to glutamic acid, a naturally occurring amino acid. Glutamate helps transmit nerve impulses in the brain. Theanine sometimes acts like glutamate in the body. But other times, it seems to block the effects of glutamate. Theanine may also affect the brain chemicals GABA, dopamine and serotonin.

People use L-theanine to improve mental function. It is also used for anxiety, mental disorders, stress and other ailments.

What are the benefits of theanine?

Reducing anxiety, stress, and increasing relaxation are its most likely effects, and while still preliminary, research suggests benefits for these purposes. This effect may also lead to improved sleep quality due to deep sleep, but whether it is effective in improving insomnia in general is unclear.

Interestingly, the relaxing and attention-promoting properties of pure l theanine powder, as well as its lack of sedative effects, may have the most important supplemental effects in attenuating the "edge" of many stimulants.

Theanine may have benefits for memory and thinking skills and cognitive function. Taking L-theanine by mouth may help healthy people stay focused.

Side Effect

When taken by mouth: L-theanine is POSSIBLY SAFE for short-term use. Doses up to 900 mg per day have been used safely for 8 weeks. It is not known if L-theanine is safe to use for longer periods of time. It may cause mild side effects such as headache or drowsiness.
