NOW Foods L-Theanine 200 mg With Inositol Capsules

L-Theanine helped me so much! I deal with general anxiety on a daily basis that I deal with, but I have some specific fears that are very severe, one of which is flying. I had to fly last week and was so stressed about it for weeks and started googling natural remedies, and this was one of them. I ordered it, not expecting it to do much (this fear is SO severe). The morning of the flight I woke up very nervous, and took one of these to see if it would calm me, and it really did! I felt so much calmer. I was still a little nervous but not panicking like I was before. It really seemed to help on the plane, and while I did feel a little nervous at times, it was nothing compared to the last time I flew (which was a total disaster). Even through severe turbulence I didn’t feel panicky at all. On the way home I took it as well and again felt much calmer than I ever did before on a plane, and actually was pretty peaceful.

I’ve heard people saying these type of things could be just a placebo, but I really doubt it based on the results I saw. I didn’t feel drowsy or out of it at all. The only thing I would suggest is taking it with food or after eating something. On the way home I had an early flight and took it before I ate, so it would have time to absorb in my body, and I felt a little nauseas. Other than that, this worked so well for me, and I didn’t experience any side effects!

Decent product but it is very expensive. Not sure if the effect is worth the amount I paid.

Up till several months ago, I’ve been on Ambien to sleep for about the past 5 years, and without it, sleep would never come, even sometimes after 48 hours, and then only a few restless hours to take the edge off. But Ambien can also play tricks with a person’s judgement and memory and I knew I had to get off the stuff.

Quite accidentally, I came across LTheanine in the process of gradually coming off the Ambien [which at that point wasn’t going well]. Surprisingly, I slept quite well that night and felt more rested than when I’d been on the Ambien. Within a week, I’d completely come off the Ambien and I rarely miss any sleep at all anymore. I typically get at least as good a night sleep as I did 30 years ago and am generally no more than 5 minutes before falling asleep.

Having also read that the product is good for anxiety, I asked both my wife and daughter to give it a try. Both will often lay there for hours before falling asleep, and both have issues with anxiety over daily life.

My wife has had fantastic results. Where I have usually joked with her that she wakes up at the sound of a leaf blowing across our lawn, she almost never wakes up in the middle of the night and her 4 or 5 o’clock wake-ups are history. We were both shocked a couple of weeks ago when she actually slept through a thunderstorm that was enough to make the doggy squirrelly. My daughter has had similar success with the added benefit that she has been able to cut down her dosage and frequency of anxiety medication and has all but eliminated panic attacks in her life.

This product is highly recommended. It doesn’t make you drowsy or slow you down. There’s no “effect” that you can pick up on other than that you just typically feel more like you’re just having a good day. And this is seriously one of the cheapest supplements that is out there right now. At one per day, this boils down to about $7/month. If it even has a chance of helping, it is certainly worth the cost.

Have some anti anxiety effect but price is too high
