The mood stabilising properties of L-Theanine may be helpful for women with premenstrual syndrome and it has been studied in relation to cardiovascular health, where it appears to protect LDL cholesterol from oxidation and promote normal blood pressure.
Extended Info
L-Theanine is an amino acid found almost exclusively in green tea and is now growing in popularity amongst nutritionists and patients as a practical and effective alternative to KavaKava.
L-Theanine easily crosses the blood-brain barrier and appears to increase levels of the inhibitory neurotransmitter, gamma amino butyric acid, as well as influencing serotonin and dopamine levels. L-Theanine appears to stimulate the production of alpha brain waves creating a state of deep relaxation and mental alertness similar to that achieved through meditation, promoting a leaxed, yet alert state of mind, without sedation.
