This was recommended to me as a relaxing agent to help me sleep. I put it in my glass of 100% cherry juice about an hour before bed andI have been sleeping better since. It has a slightly sweet flavor which is great in my cherry juice. I would recommend it.

I have anxiety which interferes with my ability to sleep. I have started taking this 30 minutes before bed time and it has helped tremendously to relax and calm my brain. For any other nerds like me that like to know how about the supplement and how it works, here is info from Psychology Today about L-theanine:L-theanine promotes relaxation and facilitates sleep by contributing to a number of changes in the brain:Boosts levels of GABA and other calming brain chemicals. L-theanine elevates levels of GABA, as well as serotonin and dopamine. These chemicals are known as neurotransmitters, and they work in the brain to regulate emotions, mood, concentration, alertness, and sleep, as well as appetite, energy, and other cognitive skills. Increasing levels of these calming brain chemicals promotes relaxation and can help with sleep.Lowers levels of “excitatory” brain chemicals. At the same time it is increasing chemicals that promote feelings of calm, L-theanine also reduces levels of chemicals in the brain that are linked to stress and anxiety. This may also be a way that L-theanine can protect brain cells against stress and age-related damage.Enhances alpha brain waves. Alpha brain waves are associated with a state of “wakeful relaxation.” That’s the state of mind you experience when meditating, being creative, or letting your mind wander in daydreaming. Alpha waves are also present during REM sleep. L-theanine appears to trigger the release of alpha-waves, which enhances relaxation, focus, and creativity. One of the appealing aspects of L-theanine is that it works to relax without sedating. That can make L-theanine a good choice for people who are looking to enhance their “wakeful relaxation,” without worrying about becoming sleepy and fatigued during the day.

Contrary to many others, I really liked the taste because it's slightly acidic and neutral, meaning you can take it in the middle of the night and not feel like you have to brush your teeth. And the good size bottle seems like a value. However, what is keeping me from reordering is the fact the dropper is not calibrated, so you have no idea how much you are taking, especially as you get toward the end of the bottle. It probably would add only a penny or two to the cost of this product for them to add a calibrated dropper.L theanine really does work to lessen stress reactions, but because of the uncalibrated dropper I shall look elsewhere.
