L-theanine is working for me!

babel · 06-28-2006

Hello everyone,
I am new here and decided to post because something I learned from this forum is helping me with my anxiety. I forget the particular thread but some one made mention of the amino acid L-theanine as being helpful so I checked it out and it is doing wonders for me. Don't know if it would help everyone but just thought I would let others know

Stay blessed.....

How long have you been using it for? Is your anxiety totally gone?

babel · 06-28-2006

just about 2 weeks. I have seen huge mprovements in anticipatory anxiety which was a major problem for me since I have to do a lot of public speaking. I still feel the butterflies in my stomach but my voice no longer shakes....

2 weeks is still a short time. Let us know if its still working in the long term.

I never heard of it. Is it a prescription or can I buy it in a store? I'm willing to try anything that won't cause a very noticable change. I kind of like being a quiet guy but I don't want to become a blabbering idiot.

You can buy it in the vitamin and herbal area of any supermarket or online easily.It's also in Green Tea.

There is actually a lot of info about L-theanine on the internet. Check this one out

As I said earlier it might not work for everyone. My main problem was my shaky voice during public speaking which was horribly embarassing. This amino acid is doing wonders for me and I AM JUST LOVING IT

Sorry, I don't live in the US. I ordered mine from a company dealing in US supplements here in Japan. You could check online....
The company that made the one I am using is called Source naturals but I'm not sure where they are based. Anyway...lots of company's make it so you can check online....
