Pure Encapsulations - L-Theanine

Stress Resilience and Relaxation: In today's fast-paced world, managing stress is essential for overall vitality. L-Theanine shines as a stress-busting superstar. It promotes a sense of calm without sedation, making it an excellent choice for individuals dealing with daily stressors or occasional anxiety. By supporting the production of calming neurotransmitters like GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid), L-Theanine helps you find tranquility amidst life's chaos.

Cognitive Clarity and Focus: One of the fascinating aspects of L-Theanine is its ability to enhance cognitive function. By promoting alpha brain wave activity, L-Theanine helps sharpen mental clarity and concentration. It complements meditation and mindfulness practices by fostering a state of relaxed awareness, making it easier to navigate tasks and challenges with a clear mind.

Quality Sleep and Sleep Cycle Regulation: Optimal sleep is vital for your overall health. L-Theanine can be a valuable ally in achieving restful sleep. It supports sleep onset and duration while improving sleep quality. By calming the mind and reducing racing thoughts, it encourages a peaceful transition into slumber.

Cardiovascular and Immune Support: L-Theanine's benefits extend beyond mental well-being. It has a positive impact on cardiovascular health by promoting healthy blood pressure levels and endothelial function. Additionally, L-Theanine has been associated with immune system support, contributing to your body's defense mechanisms.

Stimulant-Free Energy: Unlike caffeine or other stimulants, L-Theanine provides a gentle energy boost without jitters or crashes. By moderating the stimulating effects of caffeine, it promotes a smoother, sustained source of alertness. This can be particularly valuable for those seeking a more balanced approach to energy throughout the day.

As a dietary supplement, children ages 8-18, take 1 capsule, 1-2 times daily, between meals. Adults, take 2 capsules, 1-3 times daily, between meals.

Verifiable Science
Green tea has been recognized for centuries as having relaxant properties. l-Theanine, a unique amino acid derived from tea, provides the characteristic taste of green tea. l-Theanine also has also discovered as the biologically active constituent of green tea responsible for promoting relaxation. In a preliminary non-clinical study, an l-theanine solution enhanced alpha wave production in the occipital and parietal regions of the brains of volunteers. These observed patterns are considered to be an index of relaxation. Furthermore, it did so rapidly and without causing drowsiness.1 In two additional studies, alpha waves were also shown to be detectable soon after l-theanine administration.2,3 l-Theanine also is useful for supporting healthy cellular function.4 Preliminary research suggests that l-theanine may be helpful for premenstrual support including healthy mood.5 Furthermore, l-theanine has been reported to moderate the effects of caffeine on the central nervous system.6 l-Theanine's safety is supported in studies and by its long history of safe consumption in tea. Pure Encapsulations's l-Theanine is Suntheanine® , the brand which has been used in scientific studies.7‡
