In this fast-paced, stressful world, relaxation isn’t an easy state to achieve. This is where Thorne Research’s Theanine. The exclusive formula
features an amino acid commonly extracted for tea, which has shown an ability to promote relaxation and calmness.
This supplement also delivers these additional
benefits:
Enhancement of the brain’s production of GABA, a chemical that curtails the negative effects of stress
Promotion of greater levels of focus
and improved memory
L-theanine is the central ingredient in Theanine by Thorne Research; it’s an amino acid found almost exclusively in the common tea plant
Camellia sinensis. This ingredient has been safely used in Japan for centuries. L-theanine has shown clear potential to have a positive impact on brain waves
and important neurotransmitters related to focus, mood, and memory. Studies have revealed that the consumption of L-theanine boosts the activity of the brain’s
alpha waves, which is accepted as an indication of relaxation. In the 30 to 40 minutes following supplementation with theanine, the intensity of the alpha-wave
activity in the brain increases, promoting relaxation, mental focus, and sharpness of perception.
Interestingly, the beneficial effects of Theanine
capsules appear to be most pronounced in those experiencing the highest levels of stress. L-theanine can enhance the production of the neurotransmitters
dopamine and serotonin. It also seems to play a role in the formation of GABA, a neurotransmitter that brings everything to a stop during times of extreme
stress, allowing you to breathe and relax. Theanine also helps support balance within the neurotransmitter system, resulting in enhancements that help you cope
with the mental, emotional and physical disturbances brought on by states of elevated stress.
To further relieve your worries, these vegetarian capsules are
completely free of flowing agents that can hinder the bioavailability of its ingredients. As a result, your body will be able to benefit quicker and more
effectively.
