L-theanine

I bought this because it helps balance my ADHD medication. We’ve been using it for 6 months(2nd time Purchasing) What I like most is it’s not another pill to take, easy flavor to put into any drink. Overall, I’d recommend this for anyone who wants a calming stress reducer that’s not another pill

Has helped immensely with my sleep!

I’m enjoying this product, as I wanted an easy way to take a lower dose before bedtime (about 100mg). It’s true that the dosing is imprecise because the dropper itself isn’t marked, but that’s not critical for me. The taste is like lemonade (made with stevia) and I really like it. It seems like a quality product.

I have not tried the full 250 dose for this as I have been trying other L Theanine products. I take about one dropper which is 125mg which is low for me before bed, and it makes a difference in my sleep during the night. It does not put me to sleep though, but I imagine that just has something to do with how high strung I can be before bed. So, I pair it with 0.05 my of melatonin to avoid any residual grogginess in the morning. I will need more time to test it, but I do find that the liquid is more potent and faster working than capsules. Not a fan of the flavor but it's doable.

I have anxiety which interferes with my ability to sleep. I have started taking this 30 minutes before bed time and it has helped tremendously to relax and calm my brain. For any other nerds like me that like to know how about the supplement and how it works, here is info from Psychology Today about L-theanine: L-theanine promotes relaxation and facilitates sleep by contributing to a number of changes in the brain: Boosts levels of GABA and other calming brain chemicals. L-theanine elevates levels of GABA, as well as serotonin and dopamine. These chemicals are known as neurotransmitters, and they work in the brain to regulate emotions, mood, concentration, alertness, and sleep, as well as appetite, energy, and other cognitive skills. Increasing levels of these calming brain chemicals promotes relaxation and can help with sleep. Lowers levels of “excitatory” brain chemicals. At the same time it is increasing chemicals that promote feelings of calm, L-theanine also reduces levels of chemicals in the brain that are linked to stress and anxiety. This may also be a way that L-theanine can protect brain cells against stress and age-related damage. Enhances alpha brain waves. Alpha brain waves are associated with a state of “wakeful relaxation.” That’s the state of mind you experience when meditating, being creative, or letting your mind wander in daydreaming. Alpha waves are also present during REM sleep. L-theanine appears to trigger the release of alpha-waves, which enhances relaxation, focus, and creativity. One of the appealing aspects of L-theanine is that it works to relax without sedating. That can make L-theanine a good choice for people who are looking to enhance their “wakeful relaxation,” without worrying about becoming sleepy and fatigued during the day.

Helps husband and I sleep, we love it. Tastes really great mixed into a variety of drinks as well since it's lemon.

Helps my mind quiet down so I can go to sleep

Contrary to many others, I really liked the taste because it's slightly acidic and neutral, meaning you can take it in the middle of the night and not feel like you have to brush your teeth. And the good size bottle seems like a value. However, what is keeping me from reordering is the fact the dropper is not calibrated, so you have no idea how much you are taking, especially as you get toward the end of the bottle. It probably would add only a penny or two to the cost of this product for them to add a calibrated dropper. L theanine really does work to lessen stress reactions, but because of the uncalibrated dropper I shall look elsewhere.

Was originally introduced to L-Theanine through Guru energy drinks. I previously enjoyed other blends of Guru, with different caffeine sources, but particularly found myself to the theanine one they make. I noticed it really satisfied my craving for a focus-assisting beverage without making me feel as uppity as from coffee. Once I found this stuff, I tried it and immediately liked it. The flavour is mild and natural, citrus. There are no weird or unnecessary ingredients in it. I mix it with water and electrolytes. It feels exactly like the theanine from those gurus, except for 1/10th the cost. I have a heavy astigmatism and even with correction my vision is only 20/40. There is a noticeable increase in visual acuity if I have a 100mg+ serving. The only other substance I've had make a noticeable difference to my vision is psilocybin microdoses. I don't know how it works, but it's very pleasant. Additionally, it does provide a nice calming effect while giving me increased focus. There seems to be no drawback after a few weeks of use. I enjoy it in the evening as well and have been noticing myself getting deeper sleeps. I no longer crave any coffee after one in the morning, whereas I used to want several per day.

Firstly let me set the record straight...the dropper does work... If you are trying to fill the entire dropper up you will be taking too much! It fills it for the correct dosage. If unsure get a syringe like the ones you get in children medicine and measure 2mls... I repeat do not try and fill the whole dropper you will be taking too much! This stuff is amazing and lasts forever...I've looked into it and you can take more than the dose it says on here so I take two droppers morning and night and it's lowered my heart rate and my stress readings and my sleep is deeper and I look forward to more great affects as I keep taking it . I highly recommend it

Really helps me get a good night sleep. I notice when I forget to take it.

I’m 48, and when it comes to competency-based interviews, my nerves tend to affect my performance. I've never landed a job I really wanted because of it. I had an internal interview at my current company and, due to nerves and other factors, I was unsuccessful. This week, I had another interview, and with how important this job was to me, I knew I needed to try something to help manage my anxiety. After doing some research, I found this product and decided to give it a go. Now, if you're looking for something that will completely eliminate nerves, this isn’t it. However, it made a noticeable difference. While I still felt nervous, I didn’t get caught up in the usual cycle of overthinking and stressing. I wasn’t completely free from nerves, but I felt much more present and less overwhelmed. The boost in confidence might not have come instantly, but I definitely felt calmer and more in control. It tastes like lemon, and while I did experience a slight bit of nausea for the first 10 minutes, that quickly passed. By the end, I realized I had made it through the interview with less stress than usual. I highly recommend this product – it won’t eliminate nerves, but it will help you manage them so you can perform more smoothly.

Great value however tastes awful. These drops were suggested to help with anxiety however my daughter refuses to take it even though it helps her she cannot get past the awful taste. I tried it myself and it is gross. Look for something else is my opinion
