What is L-Theanine and what are its benefits?Updated 8 months ago
L-Theanine is a naturally occurring compound found in green and black tea leaves, as well as certain mushroom species. It primarily exists as L-theanine, with a less common form known as D-theanine. Structurally similar to glutamate, L-theanine can both mimic and oppose its effects, influencing key neurotransmitters like GABA, dopamine, and serotonin, which are crucial for mood regulation and cognitive function. L-Theanine is available in tea and supplement forms.
