L-Theanine
L-Theanine is an amino acid derived from another amino acid, L-Glutamic Acid, and is 100% pure. L-Theanine increases brain levels of dopamine, the pleasure and reward neurotransmitter, and serotonin, the main inhibitory neurotransmitter, which are critically degraded in situations of stress and overwork.
Unlike synthetic antidepressants, it reduces chronic stress, anxiety, melancholia and mood disorders without doing any harm to the brain's natural functioning.
L-Theanine easily crosses the blood-brain barrier and produces tranquilizing effects in the brain.
L-Theanine protects the brain from glutamate-induced neurotoxicity, a major cause of neurodegenerative diseases. L-Theanine induces relaxation without causing drowsiness; this can be verified by an increased generation of alpha waves in the brain.
Studies show that it improves the brain's ability to concentrate. Unlike caffeine, L-Theanine increases brain levels of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), an inhibitory neurotransmitter that invites relaxation and promotes a sense of well-being. It significantly reduces the mental, physical and social symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome.
Rapidly absorbed from the small intestine, L-Theanine is transported directly to the brain. Although effective doses range from 50 to 200 mg of L-Theanine, it takes only 30 to 40 minutes to reach a mental and emotional state of alertness and wakefulness, albeit calm, which lasts 8 to 12 hours.
L-Theanine can be ideal for people who have trouble sleeping and feel tired when they wake up. Take one to two capsules one hour before bedtime.
In summary, here are the potential benefits of L-Theanine:
- Increases mental acuity
- Promotes relaxation without causing drowsiness
- Improves learning and concentration
- Reduces stress and anxiety
- Improves sleep quality
- Reduces side effects of caffeine
- Boosts immune system response
- Reduces premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms

LTO3 versus Ritalin(e)
For over three years, thousands of children on two continents have been taking LTO3 instead of Ritalin(e). Why have they done so? Because LTO3 has no side-effects or contraindications, while Ritalin(e) has a potential 46 side-effects, not counting the suicidal risk of withdrawal.
