> I just ordered a product from vitamin world called L-theanine. Its claimed to cross the BBB into gaba. The recommeded dose is 200mg. Anyone try this product yet.I took 100mg and nothing.
> genoAre you still taking the L-Theanine? I have a bottle of this and take it from time to time, but haven't noticed any effect. I believe this is something you need to take for a while before you notice any difference. There are good studies on this but so far I haven't meet anyone who has taken it- unless you are.
I did not read anything about this being converted into GABA. I don't believe that is does-I don't think that GABA is involved.
It's funny to see this post today, because I was just looking into L-Theanine again and just read some more research info on it today.
