NOW Foods Supplements, L-Theanine 200 mg with Inositol, Stress Management*, 60 Veg Capsules

I’ve wanted to find a more natural way to reduce stress and anxiety.. L-Theanine has little to no side effects and is overall quite safe. NOW Foods is GMP certified and UL certified so I know I’m getting what they are saying without any unknown adulterants. As for its effectiveness, I’ve found it has helped me to relax more and is part of my sleep time ritual. I fall asleep faster and better. My daughter has also taken it with great results.

I honestly didn’t expect a supplement to make such a noticeable difference, but L-theanine has completely helped me change for the better. Since I started taking it, I feel more relaxed, calm, and genuinely more positive than I have in a long time. One of the biggest improvements is how much it helps minimize my habit of spiraling thoughts. My mind feels quieter and clearer, and I’m no longer stuck overthinking or feeling mentally overwhelmed as often. It’s like I can finally pause, breathe, and approach things with a calmer mindset. Taking it first thing in the morning has been the best way to maximize the benefits. Starting my day with that sense of calm makes everything feel more manageable, and I feel more focused, well-controlled, and able to handle stress without falling apart. I’ll admit, sometimes I wonder how I would feel without it now because it has become such a helpful part of my routine. Even though it’s “just” a supplement, the difference has been so real that I hope I can stay consistent and continue growing into this new version of myself. If you’re looking for something natural to support relaxation, focus, and a more positive mindset (especially if you struggle with racing or spiraling thoughts), I highly recommend giving L-theanine a try!

Stressed out? anxiety? depression? emotional eater? Brain fog? Can’t sleep? Brain won’t “shut off”? Take this!!! I developed anywhere from low to high grade general and social anxiety. I struggle with depression. I’m an emotional eater. All these things left me feeling like I didn’t know myself anymore, in a fog struggling to make decisions or leave the house. This saved me. I never took prescription drugs because I was scared of the side affects so my doctor told me to take this. One 200 mg pill first thing in the morning and one at night. (From what I’ve read online people can take up to 700mg a day depending on your level of anxiety) I was very skeptical as I’ve taken many other herbs that did nothing for me. But this....this is like finding a Wonkas golden ticket...but instead of taking you to crazy land it’s your ticket OUT! This flat out clears my head. Gives me energy to complete tasks and enables me to process thoughts without stressing out. I don’t get jitters I don’t feel like I’m on caffeine (which I’m very sensitive to) I just feel like the “old me”. I’m hardly dealing with any breakthrough anxiety and when I do it never escalates into a panic or anxiety attack now. I find myself responding to stressors in a calm manner. Not engaging in things that would have sent me into a rage before taking this. I can formulate my thoughts better, speak my mind with ease and just have a better sense of self. Now that I’m not emotionally ping ponging through life, I’ve found that I don’t have the desire to emotially eat and I have begun to lose some weight. (I thought I was being dramatic but when I did some research online it is actually prescribed for this issue) what a unexpected plus! Sleeping has always been a huge issue for me. My thoughts were always racing. I’d be tired all day and as soon as I laid down....”oh wow let me play out every scinario of what I could have done better today” “let me think about every embarrassing moment I’ve caused myself since 1989”......NO MORE. I’m ready for bed by 11 and I sleep like a baby. Even if I can only get 4 hours of sleep I wake up feeling like I’ve actually slept, refreshed, ready to take on the day..... and I have a good attitude.... I AM NOT a morning person so that’s huge for me. My bouts with depression are now far and few between. I have a lifted mood, sharp, happy, desiring to live life, rested and able to get through any situation without fear of impending doom. Ive told everyone I know about this and they are all reaping the benefits of these magical pills. All my symptoms or not, with the world we live in today and the amount of stress we have I truly believe everyone should take this. Let’s get our lives and happiness back!!!!

Can be tough to get down is the only reason I’m giving 4 stars.. otherwise I have had no abdominal discomfort or G.I. discomfort. And it honestly works like a charm. I now sleep through the night with very rare occasions waking up at my typical 3 AM. I experienced no grogginess the next day..

I'll admit, I only just received this product earlier this morning and have taken just one 200mg serving...but I'm already sold! I was on the hunt for anything that could help me with my anxiety. It's something I experience just about everyday. I figured there had to be something out there that could help me. That's when I discovered L-Theanine. Read about it's calming properties without making you tired. How it can help with anxiety. The majority if not all the reviews I read for L-Theanine itself, regardless of where you get it from, were positive. I chose this brand because I felt it was a good price for the amount you get and it doesn't contain fillers and all that junk I don't want in my supplements. I took just one dose...and within 10 minutes I felt a sense of calmness just wash over me. Idk how to explain it other than...I just felt relaxed! My body felt at ease. I am very in tune with my body so I know when something actually has an effect on me. This was no 'placebo effect'. Everyone is different as to how much you'll need to take or how quickly you'll feel it's effects. The size of the pill is pretty small, in my opinion. Easy to swallow. No taste! Bottle came sealed and is authentic. My delivery arrived super quickly. The only thing I don't like is how they put the barcode sticker over the info on the bottle. Please don't do that next time? But yes. I am so glad I discovered this product. I wish I had found it sooner! For anyone dealing with anxiety, stress and just needs something to help with that...this is it! This also helps with sleep. Get this!

Too expensive

I genuinely cried after taking this supplement for the first time ..I was not fidgeting anymore nor qas my anxiety spiking up. I've never felt so calm in my life .i dont start overthinking before i sleep , my mind calms easily.It didn't take away every problem I have but it indeed improve my mood and life quality ❤️

2つ購入しました。 集中力を高める本を読んでいるとテアニンとカフェインのセットで更に高まるとのことと夜に飲むとリラックスし疲れがとれるメリットがあるとのことで実験的に導入しました。 約1ヶ月ほど使用しました。 集中力の方に関しては機会は少なかったので、よくわかっていません。 夜寝る前に飲むと確かに寝に落ちる時間は早まったように感じます。 朝も目覚めもよい。 寝に落ちる感覚はメラトニンサプリの方が早いがメラトニンは寝起のだるさが残るので、その点に関してはこちらの方が使いやすい。 早くお寝付きたい場合はメラトニンでゆったり寝に落ちたい際はテアニンと使い分けると良いと感じた。

Taking it was a coffee really makes it great and the 200 mg dosage does seem for me at leas for me seem very suitable to get the desired effect

I use it with caffeine, extremely effective and if you are looking for theanine, then go for this.
