This does not make sense, because tea has a lot off caffeine. Scientist began to wonder how tea could have such a calming effect when it is loaded with caffeine. There must be something in the tea that is counteracting the effect of caffeine. That something is L-Theanine.

L-Theanine is now extracted from tea and is available in health food stores worldwide, but most people still do not know about its great properties. It is used as an alternative to traditional anti-anxiety medications. It has been successfully in treating children with hyperactivity issues. And it is very helpful in larger dosages for treating insomnia and sleep disorders. It can even be more effective for sleep when it is combined with other natural sleep aids. Before you or your children become dependent on some prescription for any of these problems, give L-Theanine a try. It is completely safe and without side effects.
