Studies about L-Theanine, the Amino Acid found in
The Doctor's Chocolate
One intended use of L-Theanine is that of a mental and physical relaxant that does not induce drowsiness.
Biologically Active - In addition to relaxation, research suggests that L-theanine may have application in
. diminishing symptoms of PMS,
. improving learning performance,
. heightening mental acuity - neurotransmitter,
. promoting concentration,
. acting antagonistically against the paralysis induced by caffeine,
. supporting the immune system,
. lowering blood pressure,
. increasing formation of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA, and
increasing brain dopamine levels among other positive benefits with no known downside.
A “feel good" supplement, L-Theanine causes no adverse reactions. The calming,
mood-enhancing effect comes with no strings attached- it won't make you drowsy or groggy, it simply relaxes you by helping to increase alpha-brain waves, electrical brain activity commonly present when you are very relaxed, literally putting you in a better mood.
Animal studies have shown that L- Theanine increases GABA (gamma-amino-butyric acid), an important inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. GABA can be considered the brain's natural sedative. Other animal studies found L-theanine was able to increase levels of dopamine, another brain chemical with mood-enhancing effects.
Just as meditation, massage, or aromatherapy quiets the mind and body, so too LTheanine plays a role in inducing the same calm and feeling of well-being.
Clinical Studies have proven positive results with "ADHD, PMS and even your Golf
Game.
