What Is The L-Theanine Dose For Anxiety?

L-theanine is a relaxing and health promoting amino acid found in green tea. According to numerous studies, ltheanine bulk powder has been demonstrated its ability to:

·         relax;

·         reduce stress;

·         increase mental acuity and concentration;

·         improve learning ability and performance;

·         reduce symptoms of PMS;

·         promote fat loss;

·         improve immune system

When added to water, coffee, tea, and other beverages and foods, l-theanine powder adds a savory taste and decreases bitter taste. The effect can be felt within 30 minutes after the supplement consumption.

Up to date, no known cautions or drug interactions have been found, though this is probably due to the lack of studies of l-theanine.

There is little knowledge as to the dosage of l-theanine and no one can tell for sure what dosage is most effective. There is a common knowledge that 100 mg 3 times a day might have a positive health effect, though there are studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of 200 mg taken 4 times a day, thus the total consumption of l-theanine powder can be up to 800 mg and even 1000 mg. The subjects noticed their cognitive skills as well as mood improvement. They didn’t feel very relaxed, but there was an anti-anxiety effect in 60 % of the subjects.
