L-Theanine is dietary supplement to support relaxation and reduce irritability and low mood states. It promotes deep muscle relaxation and improved quality sleep. It helps the body to produce other calming amino acids, such as dopamine, GABA and Tryptophan. It also promotes increased concentration and focus. L-Theanine is a naturally occurring amino acid found in green tea and is a derivative of glutamic acid-a major neurotransmitter in the brain. It is known for its calming effects in the brain and has been shown to support increased concentration and focus while it reduces irritability. It directly stimulates production of alpha brain waves, giving the body a sense of deep relaxation and mental alertness without drowsiness. L-Theanine has been shown to also help the regulation of blood pressure within normal ranges. L-Theanine produces beneficial affects on the nervous and cardiovascular systems. L-Theanine is Suntheanine brand from Taiyo International, Inc. It is structurally identical to the L -Theanine compound naturally found in tea. L-Theanine is extensively researched and documented with over 45 research studies. The areas of research include reducing stress and anxiety, promoting relaxation and sleep quality, and improving learning and concentration. It should be noted that all research above was conducted using Suntheanine (100% pure L-Theanine) and not L-Theanine from Green Tea Extract. It can be used daily or when you need extra help to relax. L-Theanine from Suntheanine is 100% safe with no known drug interactions or side effects. It promotes relaxation safely, without causing drowsiness or impairing cognitive or motor functions. Each vegetarian capsule provides 200 mg of 100% pure L-Theanine. L-Theanine is an easy-to-swallow vegetarian capsule. Suggested Use: Just take one capsule daily.

A naturally occurring phospholipid, phosphatidylserine (PS) is a major structural component in many biological membranes. Its especially concentrated in brain and nerve tissue. PS assists proteins that manage membrane functions, facilitates entry of nutrients into cells and the exit of waste products out of cells, and its involved in cell-to-cell message transmission. Supplementing with PS is believed to support key brain functions, promote healthy memory and help maintain healthy cortisol levels. In 2003, the FDA allowed two health claims for PS: the first allowed claim is that PS may reduce the risk of cognitive dysfunction in the elderly, and the second is that PS may reduce the risk of dementia in the elderly.
