Nature's Way L-Theanine, Stress Relief*, Relaxation Support*, 180 ct

I bought this item for a few reasons. I wanted to reduce my stress, and wanted to curb anger fits that I would get from time to time. I have been taking only 1 pill a day for 3 months and here are my findings: 1) This stuff works, period. 2) I find myself much calmer during the day. I don't flip out at the littlest things. I can handle my teenagers much much better, and I don't sweat the small stiff any longer. 3) My mood is CONSIDERABLY noticeable while driving! Yes, driving. I have been known to get really angry at idiots on the road, but now I just think, "eh screw it" and continue on without letting them irritate me. 4) Sleeping much better and sounder, and that is only with 1 pill. 5) I have lost a little over 15 pounds (that I could afford to lose) since I have been on it. I think that's due to the thermogenesis with my one cup of morning joe with caffeine, and I simply don't "stress eat" anymore. If my kids pissed me off, I used to go straight to the pantry and binge eat. Now, I am able to handle that stress, remain relaxed and don't eat. This amino acid has been shown to do all of the above in lab and animal testing. I am an extreme type A personality and believe me, this is NOT a placebo effect. I have been on this 3 months so it's more than enough time as a trial, and my entire family sees a definite change in me. My household is a much better environment due to me taking this supplement. Try it. It's safe, it's easy to swallow, and it's effective. Whatever brand you buy, make sure it's the Suntheanine type. This brand has a customer for life in me. Highly highly highly recommend you try it,

I have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and mild OCD for quite a few years. They have been mostly managed with prescription medication, but I do not like the side effects of the prescription meds and I wanted something more natural. I did a great deal of research and it seemed like L-Theanine had everything I wanted. I've been taking it for nearly a month and It has helped me to take less of my benzos and sometimes I can even take half doses of the klonipin and one of these pills and I will feel a significant change in my anxiety and compulsion. I have even felt close to panic attacks and been able to take an extra one of these pills and the feeling leaves me. It's really wonderful! And this product has ZERO side effects compared to anything I've taken-- especially the benzos! The prescription meds make me sleepy and uncoordinated. This pill, however, does not make me drowsy, unless I've had no sleep-- then I actually can sleep! Yay! I usually take 2 pills a day, and sometimes 3 over the course of the day in addition to my nightly benzo. I believe that for people who have severe anxiety and panic disorders, they cannot totally replace their prescription medications with this, but they can definitely supplement with it with good results. It simply takes off the edge-- not fully lifting all the anxiety, but I think for many people with severe anxiety that's all you ever want. For people who have mild anxiety-- I imagine this would be a wonderful product on it's own to help you deal with your anxiety. Definitely give it a try!

This is the real deal!! It's helped me sooooo much with my anxiety. A friend gave me a bottle of this, and then I thought it was helping, so I ordered another bottle....it's definitely helping! I had crippling panic attacks almost daily and taking this throughout my day (in conjunction with a nightly dose of Calm Now supplements) has completely eradicated them. I still have anxious thoughts, but I'm calm and peaceful and able to "talk" myself down from them. I take a little more than the recommended dose, but I played around with it a little to see what worked for me. I'm a bigger lady, so maybe that's why? I take 3 capsules 2-3 times during the day. With or without food. I can really tell when I miss a day or two...it's not pretty! I will say, make sure you give it time. The first week I didn't notice nay thing, the second week I thought I started to, the third week I upped my dose and BAM! It was like a wave of calm!! So glad I found this stuff!!

Seems to be working very well for me. I've been taking it twice a day for a week. I have a very high-stress job and have felt amazingly calm and focused at work. I am sleeping better than I have in months. I attribute it to the L-Theanine as I've made no other changes. Be aware that if you are looking for something as strong as Ativan or Klonopin for anxiety, this is not it. But, if you are looking for something to provide a feeling of general well-being and focus, it is definitely worth trying. Some reviewers have stated that the results diminish over time. If I don't find that the case, I will update my review to 5 stars.

I absolutely love this supplement and take it every night and sometimes at other times, as needed. And the brand is amazing! Would definitely recommend to anyone who has mild anxiety and or who would like to just have a little bit more natural, relaxing help in their life!
