I was using the Jarrow brand, which I liked and trusted, but they suddenly got super duper expensive. I’ve been using the 5-HTP from this brand and liking it, so I thought it would try their l-theanine.
I was worried that the decaffeinated green tea extract would be a little stimulating and contribute to my insomnia, since I’m very sensitive to stuff like that. I’m happy to report that I don’t sense any stimulation and in fact take this right before bed with no problems. Combined with their 5-HTP and a different brand of melatonin, I have found this to be a potent helper with sleep.
(Also check out a supplement called Sleep Factors if you’re having trouble sleeping. That stuff really helped with my insomnia, but I developed a gaba sensitivity and can’t take it anymore.)

アレルギーが多いので、ヴィーガンのNow foodsばかり買ってます!!とても助かってます！
出荷以降荷物が追跡できないため、問い合わせしたところ、すぐに返信が来たので安心しました^^
最近はストレスからか眠りは浅いし、寝ても寝る前より眠いほどで困っていたのでこちらを購入しました!!
1錠だけで少し効果はありました。途中で起きるのも1回のみで、若干眠さは残っていますがすっきり感が久しぶりに感じることが出来ました!! 平日は2錠にしても良いかもしれません。

This has helped me tremendously! Sleep is great when I take it before bed! If I’m feeling anxious I take it I relax automatically! Makes me feel mellow and just zen! The capsules are easy to swallow! Will purchase again!

My experience was positive. As advertised, this product delivers and performs as expected. It mellows me out and I only use it when I need it. The difference in concentration is noticeable, and I enjoy the way it makes me feel.

Estos suplementos son tan grandes que no se puede describir! No sé tal vez es una anamolía, pero tomé 1 pastilla en el medio del día justo después de que llegó en el correo. Me siento como si hubiera bebido 2 Redbulls y me siento feliz sin razón, es raro, pero es impresionante!

Works well with my caffeine pills, by getting rid of the jitters that come along with high caffeine consumption. When taken by itself I didn’t notice any change in my alertness levels or feeling of relaxation.

NOW supplements are good quality. L-Theanine is no exception. Good to help relax and maybe for sleep.

Si sufres de insomnio como yo y no quieres tomar melatonina este es el producto. Me a ayudado muchísimo a dormir. Fue recomendación de mi Nutriologa y súper bien. Me a funcionado.

I took a different version of this I guess about a year ago, and the effects were pretty mild, despite being twice the strength. I can say within 30 minutes of taking this product I started noticing an affect. It was pretty dramatic as I had taken it after having some coffee, and instead of getting more revved up, I started calming down.
Later the same day my mood kept improving, and I was laughing with friends by evening. I can’t remember the last time I had a good belly laugh over something silly. Definitely a mood changer.
I’m just getting started with this but, wow, definitely not a placebo. Very reasonably priced, and NOW seems to be a good brand. I just hope it continues to work as well over time. I’m very impressed.
I also want to mention I’ve been taking HCF (happy, calm, focus) , which is another amino acid. It takes the edge off and improves mood, but this works even better. Perhaps it’s the combination of both, I don’t know. Whatever it is I hope it continues to work as well. I feel great.
Update: Unfortunately the wonderful results I had from this initially disappeared very quickly. Major bummer as the first day I took it it was really great. I do think overall it does help to take the edge off. Will continue to take for while.

I love L-Thenene to keep me focused. I’m still trying to find the pills I was getting at (surprisingly) Dollar General but they quit carrying! They gave me a true undeniable boost! I called them my brain pills. Searching for them….

Amazing product to have if you experience periodic anxiety due to a high stress job or just feeling more anxious than usual. Works for me within 30 mins, without making me sleepy or losing focus at work!! This is extremely important for those who work in a fast pace environment. Also, this has had no interaction with any of the other supplements I take.
Overall, stay alert and focused but with less anxiety!

I have done extensive research on L-Theanine supplements and this is one of my TOP brands. I have been very pleased with the quality and consistency of this product. This particular version also contains Green Tea which is a natural source of Theanine. As you can see from my photos, the capsules are not too large and I find them easy to swallow. If needed, you can also open them up and sprinkle on food, add to a drink, etc.
There is quite a bit of clinical research on Theanine to help with mood, relaxation, stress, etc, so I encourage everyone to take a little time and review some of this information. Stay healthy, Enjoy Life, & Keep Smiling.
