NOW Foods L-Theanine Powder Pure 1 oz

NOW® L-Theanine Pure Powder supplies pure L-theanine with no fillers. Theanine is a unique amino acid found naturally 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 the 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. The pure powder is potent, so only a small amount is needed, and it lets you fine-tune your dose.*
