Theanine
Theanine, often referred to as L-theanine as that is the predominant isomer of theanine, is an amino acid commonly found in tea leaves, particularly in green tea. It is purported to increase levels of GABA, serotonin, and dopamine in the brain, which can help to reduce stress and anxiety. L-theanine may also promote a sense of calm and improve overall well-being. Some studies have also suggested that it may improve cognitive function, although more research is needed. Most reported drug interactions with theanine are due to its sedative effects.

Label Statments:
| General Statements |
- L-theanine, a unique free form amino acid found in green tea and various mushrooms, has been shown to increase tranquilizing alpha-waves without inducing drowsiness. Clinical studies have shown it to be effective in single doses of 100 to 200 mg 1 to 3 times daily or as needed depending on stress and anxiety levels. For those seeking a continuous mood eleveating effect, one capsule can be taken four times throughout the day.
Based on the results of clinical studies, L-theanine is most effective in the range 50-200 mg, with the effect being felt within 30 minutes and lasting for 8-10 hours. Individuals with high stress levels may increase their dosage of L-theaning to at least 100 mg, with no more than 600 mg being taken in a six hour period. FDA recommends a maximum dose of 1200 mg daily, although the reason for this limit is not clear, due to its demonstrated safety. There are no known adverse reactions to L.theanine and no drug interactions have been reported. L-theanine is not affected by food and may be taken anytime, as needed.
