L-Theanine is an amino acid that has gained popularity in recent years due to its potential health benefits. It is a naturally occurring compound found in tea leaves, particularly in green tea, and mushrooms. L-Theanine has been studied extensively for its effects on the brain and cognitive function, as well as its potential to reduce anxiety and stress. L-Theanine increases the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, including dopamine, GABA, and serotonin. These neurotransmitters are important for regulating mood, motivation, and attention.

One of the most well-known effects of L-Theanine is its ability to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. Several studies have shown that L-Theanine can reduce symptoms of anxiety and stress, including physical symptoms such as increased heart rate and blood pressure. L-Theanine is believed to work by promoting alpha brain waves, which are associated with relaxation and a state of wakeful relaxation. This effect has been confirmed by EEG studies, which have shown an increase in alpha waves after L-Theanine supplementation.
