Functions:

  • Cognitive Enhancement: L-Theanine helps improve focus, attention, and cognitive performance by increasing alpha brain wave activity, which is associated with a relaxed but alert mental state.
  • Anxiety Reduction: It promotes relaxation and reduces anxiety by increasing GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) levels in the brain, which helps inhibit the activity of neurons that cause stress.
  • Sleep Quality: L-Theanine can improve sleep quality by reducing stress and promoting relaxation, without causing drowsiness during the day.
  • Neuroprotective Effects: It helps protect neurons from oxidative stress and supports overall brain health by reducing the impact of free radicals.
