What is L-theanine? 🌿

What does L-theanine do for you? It is used to help prevent and treat conditions, including:

• Anxiety, depression and other mood-related disorders
• Insomnia and trouble sleeping
• Cognitive loss, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
• Stroke
• High blood pressure and other cardiovascular problems
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• Schizophrenia
• Poor attention span
• Substance dependence
• It may help improve the effects of drugs used to treat cancer drugs

L-theanine is an amino acid found in tea leaves (Camellia sinensis) and the Bay bolete mushroom (Xerocomus badius).1 L-theanine is also available in supplement form.

Clinical trials suggest L-theanine has antianxiety effects and promotes relaxation, sleep, cognitive function (processing and understanding information), and more.

Different types of tea have different amounts of L-theanine. One study suggested white and green teas contain more L-theanine than oolong and black.7 Prepared teas were found to have anywhere from 5 to 36 milligrams (mg) of L-theanine per cup.
