Aliness L-Theanine is a dietary supplement that contains a natural non-protein amino acid called theanine. The active substance has been enclosed in vegetable capsules, suitable for people on a vegetarian diet.
Theanine is a non-protein amino acid discovered by Japanese scientists in the leaves of Chinese tea (Camellia sinensis). It is also found in some species of fungi. Theanine is characterized by high biological activity and can cross the blood-brain barrier. This amino acid belongs to nootropic substances, but it is equally often used to introduce a feeling of relaxation and stress relief.
L-theanine has a beneficial effect on mental well-being. It exerts a relaxant effect while causing no sedation. It also helps to reduce stress and anxiety. Presumably, this is the effect of the increased alpha brainwave activity. Besides, the structure of theanine enables it to interact with the KA, AMPA and NMDA receptors, which facilitates the modulation of glutamate expression – a key excitatory neurotransmitter.
L-theanine is conducive to the improvement of mental performance. This is associated with the afore-mentioned alpha waves. It has been scientifically proven that they are characteristic of a state of relaxation, but they also promote engagement in a given activity, facilitate concentration, trigger creativity and stimulate creative thinking.
L-Theanine is recommended for people struggling with sleep disorders. It works best in people with stress-induced sleep disorders. In such situations, it usually turns out that calming down, relaxing and inhibiting overthinking is enough to fall asleep quickly and easily and to sleep through the night.
A perfect combination of L-theanine with caffeine. Caffeine offers the desired boost of energy, which is unfortunately accompanied by an increase in blood pressure, a feeling of nervousness, distraction and anxiety. Theanine reduces the unwanted symptoms of excess caffeine. At the same time, it allows the maintenance of a pleasant stimulation and high concentration.
To sum up, Aliness L-Theanine is a preparation that helps to relieve stress and anxiety, while causing no dullness or excessive sleepiness. It can also be successfully used before intensive mental work to strengthen cognitive functions and increase the ability to concentrate.
