May promote relaxation & stress reduction*
L-Theanine is an amino acid that helps promote a restful, relaxed state without diminishing daytime alertness* It's free of the side effects commonly associated with other relaxing agents*
L-Theanine is an amino acid that helps promote a restful, relaxed state without diminishing daytime alertness, and without the side effects commonly associated with other relaxing agents.
Since ancient times, it has been said that drinking green tea brings relaxation. The substance that is responsible for this sense of relaxation is L-theanine.
L-theanine has shown the ability to promote deep muscle relaxation and improve good quality sleep. Even though L-theanine is found in green tea, it does not contain caffeine. L-theanine is simply one of the amino acids in green tea.
Theanine, a flavour-enhancing element contained in green tea, is produced in the roots and moves into the leaves. Amino acids in this element, which produce mellowness, transform into an astringency element, catechins, when exposed to sunlight. The mild taste peculiar to tencha and gyokuro is brought about by reducing the sunlight.
Ever wonder why tea doesn?t give you the same buzz as coffee even though it has caffeine? The reason is scientific, dear Watson. Tea contains an amino acid known as theanine. Theanine is tea?s version of a relaxant. Think Japanese tea ceremony. Calming effect
In Japan, stress is legendary? people literally die from overwork. It?s so bad that a Japanese doctor invented a name for it. ?Karoshi? is death due to overwork. Anything that calms people down is very welcome in Japan. Tea, obviously, has been a part of Japanese culture for thousands of years. But it took a Japanese researcher to point out that caffeine ingested in tea has a different effect than the same amount ingested as pure caffeine. When researchers went to find out why, they discovered that theanine was offsetting caffeine?s hyper effect with a calming effect. This led to the manufacture of a new natural antidote to modern stress.
Theanine has multiple beneficial effects. It?s like Zen in a bottle, and its effects have been compared to tobacco or aromatherapy.
