L-theanine is a unique amino acid that is found almost exclusively in the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) and which has been used safely in Japan for decades. L-theanine has been shown to positively modify brain waves and the key neurotransmitters involved in mood, focus, and memory.* L-theanine enhances the production of the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, and also appears to play a role in the formation of GABA €œ a neurotransmitter that acts like a "brake" during times of stress.* L-theanine also enhances brain alpha-wave activity, a marker of relaxation.*Sleep*Stress* Dietary ConsiderationsGluten Free Serving Size: 1 Capsule Servings Per Container: 90 Amount Per ServingL-Theanine 200 mg Other ingredients: Hypromellose (derived from cellulose) capsule, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Leucine, Silicon Dioxide Suggested Use: Take 1 capsule one to three times daily or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner.Gluten FreeIf pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner before using this product.Tamper Evident: Use only if bottle is sealed.

L-theanine – Promote Relaxation and Reduce Stress L-theanine is an amino acid that helps promote a restful, relaxed state without diminishing daytime alertness. It's free of the side effects commonly associated with other relaxing agents and can be used to aid in stress management. During a study of human volunteers, L-theanine promoted the generation of alpha brain waves, an indication of relaxation. Another small, controlled clinical trial suggests that L-theanine supports a healthy stress response. Results of yet another human trial suggest that L-theanine may act via the sympathetic-medullary system, either in addition to or instead of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. L-theanine has long thought to interact with the binding of L-glutamic acid to glutamate receptors in the brain.

Description5-HTP helps increase serotonin levels to support sleep, stress response, and decrease sugar cravings.* It contains pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, the active form of vitamin B6 and the necessary cofactor for the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin. L-tryptophan and 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) are both precursors to serotonin; however, supplementation with 5-HTP may be preferable because, unlike L-tryptophan, 5-HTP cannot be shunted into other uses in the body such as niacin or protein production. 5-HTP is well absorbed by the body, and 5-HTP can be taken with meals without reducing its effectiveness.Mood*Sleep* Dietary ConsiderationsGluten Free Suggested UseTake 1-2 capsules three times daily or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.

Stress support supplements can often be very helpful in managing stress when they are used in conjunction with other stress management techniques. Stress relief supplements such as St. John's Wort, Passion Flower, Valerian Root, Lemon Balm or Kava Kava can be very helpful.
Stress and energy support supplements often complement each other. There are a number of natural supplements that can help boost your energy levels. Some energy support supplements work as stimulants. Others boost your metabolism. For quick energy, a stimulant supplement such as ginseng, capsaicin, kola nut, yerba mate or caffeine are all good choices. For an overall energy boost, supplements such as B vitamins, CoQ10, taurine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, carnitine and creatine can be helpful. Be sure to consult your health care professional for advice on choosing just the right energy supplements to suit your needs. Turn to Vita Living for high quality herbs, vitamins and other supplements for stress relief and getting an energy boost.
Stress management experts agree that it is always wisest to make lifestyle changes such as reducing or eliminating sugar, alcohol, and nicotine from your life to reduce stress. Adding exercise, yoga, meditation, walking and generally making your life more active is also a proven way to deal with stress. Being certain of getting plenty of high quality sleep will significantly reduce your stress levels.
Just as stress can and should be treated first with lifestyle enhancements, lack of energy also responds well to an improved lifestyle. Being certain that you keep your blood sugar levels steady, stay well hydrated, exercise regularly and eat well will work wonders to improve your energy level. Nonetheless, there may be times when you need an energy boost.
