NOW Foods L-Theanine Double Strength 200mg 120 Veg Capsules

NOW® L-Theanine Double Strength supplies 200 mg of L-theanine in each veg capsule. Theanine is a unique amino acid found almost exclusively in green tea, and it's responsible for the calm, focused feeling that tea can provide. It promotes relaxation by supporting the brain's calming pathways — notably alpha brain-wave activity associated with a relaxed yet alert state — without the drowsiness that some calming aids can cause. It also supports healthy vascular function. This combination of calm and clarity makes theanine popular for easing everyday tension while staying focused and productive.*

About the key ingredients

• L-Theanine – 200 mg: A green-tea amino acid that promotes relaxation and a calm, focused state — supporting alpha brain-wave activity without drowsiness — and supports healthy vascular function.*
• Other ingredients: Cellulose in a plant-based hypromellose (vegetarian) capsule, with no artificial fillers.

Who it's for

NOW® L-Theanine is a great fit for adults who want calm focus and relaxation without drowsiness — for example during busy or stressful days, or to smooth out the jittery edge of caffeine while staying alert and productive. Because it's the amino acid behind the calm-yet-focused feeling of green tea, it appeals to students, professionals and anyone seeking a clear-headed sense of calm. The chewable is convenient on the go, while capsules offer flexible daily or as-needed dosing.*
