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

A favorite of mine.Anytime i have to much caffiene (maybe a strong coffee or from soda) and it gives me that nervous jittery energy 😬 I take 2 of these, that nervous energy calms down and completely stops the jittery feeling and Im left with a more relaxed calm feeling, but with energy that i can actually focus onto something (or things)Also take this before bed to help me get sleepy (calm relaxed feeling) especially if I've been go go go all day, and need that bit that says "ok you can relax now"White filled caspsule that is small and easy to take, no taste. High quality, I've never had this L-theanine not give me a calm relaxed feeling.

Love L-theanine, it's been a life changer. Great for sleep, anxiety and calm.

This is the absolute most effective brand of L-Theanine I have tried and I have been taking it for many years.

I have been a long time tea drinker. I have an issue with my thinking that causes my thought to be cloudy and confused. Tea helps tremendously with this problem. The problem with that is it's not always convenient to make a cup of tea and wait for it to cool enough to drink.I figured this theanine supplement would be a convenient way to deal with that. Unfortunately, the effect simply isn't as noticeable as it is with an actual cup of tea. Not even when combined with caffeine (which is supposed to have a synergistic relationship with theanine).However, I know that it does have an effect in larger doses. If I take it before bed, I sleep very well and have pleasant dreams. Normally, I don't dream much. And if I do, I usually have nightmares or very strange dreams.I have also noticed that I have had a much more positive mood since I've been taking this. It is so subtle that I can't really feel it lifting me up as soon as I take it but I know how I was feeling before I started taking theanine supplements.Unfortunately, Theanine can be a bit hard to find in stores and it can be pricy. If I wasn't sure it was doing something I'd find it hard to justify buying it.This brand seems OK but a 60 count for 17 dollars is really kind of steep when you add on the fact that you have to wait for 2-3 days for shipping. I can get Suntheanine at the health food store for the same price.In summary, I am satisfied with the product but I took off a star because it isn't really a good value. There's no point in ordering it and waiting for shipping if you can get it locally.

DISCLAIMER: I am NOT a medical doctor or a physician. I am NOT encouraging anyone to quit taking any medication whether it's prescribed or not. I am simply giving my personal OPINIONS and sharing my story.I started a new job over a month ago where instead of working evenings (around 6 PM), I'd start at 7 in the morning. It really messed with my biological clock since I was used to sleeping later (usu. well past midnight). I had insomnia for almost a week since I had a hard time just to fall asleep. After doing some research, I found out about L-theanine.Out of desperation, I ordered this, selected the fastest shipping option, and took it later that night about an hour or two before my (new) bedtime. Wow, this stuff works much better than I expected. Not only did I get knocked out, but I fell asleep MUCH faster, STAYED asleep, and the quality of my sleep improved. Ever since, I am happy to say that as of now (June 6th, 2025), I have been consistently getting at least of 7 hrs of rock solid, uninterrupted sleep.I haven't experienced any negative side effects from taking this. This makes it a great alternative to the drugs out there that promise to deliver what this amino acid does (at least for me). In addition to sleep benefits, I've noticed a slight decrease in my social anxiety and I don't get as jittery as I used to when enjoying anything with caffeine in it. If you're in the same situation that I was, I would give this a try.

After incorporating the "NOW Foods L-Theanine 200 mg" supplement into my daily routine, I've experienced a noticeable improvement in managing stress and enhancing relaxation.Taking one capsule daily in the morning with my coffee has reduced anxiety and stress levels, helping me feel calmer and more centered throughout the day.The capsules are small and thus easy to swallow, and I appreciate that there's no aftertaste, making them convenient for consistent use.Considering the positive effects, I find the product to be reasonably priced, and the quality of the ingredients justifies the cost.

L-theanine really helps with anxiety and helps keep me calm and clear headed.
