Supplement Spotlight: L-Theanine

What is L-Theanine?
L-Theanine is an amino acid found naturally in green tea (Camellia sinensis). Known for its calming yet non-drowsy effects, L-Theanine promotes relaxation without compromising focus — a rare combination that makes it perfect for reducing stress and improving mental clarity.

The Benefits
L-Theanine works by promoting alpha brain waves, the same brain state achieved during meditation. Alpha waves are associated with calm focus, mental clarity, and reduced tension, making L-Theanine a favourite for managing stress without sedation.

It also increases levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), serotonin, and dopamine, which are neurotransmitters responsible for mood regulation, relaxation, and focus. This balance allows you to feel calm and composed while staying alert and productive.

Other Benefits:

• Reduces stress without drowsiness: Perfect for daytime relaxation without fatigue.
• Improves focus and concentration: Enhances cognitive function, especially during stressful tasks.
• Synergises with caffeine: Reduces caffeine’s jittery effects while maintaining alertness.
• Supports sleep quality: Helps calm an overactive mind at night for better sleep onset.

Active Ingredients and Why They Work
L-Theanine’s unique benefits come from its ability to influence neurotransmitter balance:

• Increases Alpha Brain Waves: Promotes a calm yet alert state of mind, reducing feelings of stress.
• Boosts GABA Production: GABA acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter that reduces overstimulation in the brain, promoting relaxation.
• Balances Serotonin and Dopamine: Improves mood, focus, and overall mental clarity.
