L-Theanine 500 mg Capsules
Calm clarity, without sedation
L-Theanine is a naturally occurring amino acid found in green tea (Camellia sinensis), known for its unique ability to promote relaxed alertness. Unlike sedatives, it gently smooths stress responses while supporting focus, attention, and healthy sleep cycles.
