SBR Nutrition Liquid L-Theanine Drops | All Natural, Vegan, Alcohol Free, Non-GMO | for Sleep Aid, Calm, Relaxation, Focus Without Drowsiness | Synergistic with Coffee or Caffeine

Tastes surprisingly good... I was afraid I would need to dilute it in water a lot but it's actually delicious straight out of the dropper. It suggests 2 droppers for the full dose but I've only been taking 1/4 of one dropper a couple times a day and it seems to be working pretty well. Feels like a tiny bit of caffeine but without the jitters or crash. This supposedly helps some people sleep. I felt it was keeping me up if I took it too late in the day. Good pick-me-up in the morning. I love that I can easily choose the dosage. When I took a pill form of theanine it made me feel "crazy" (i think the dose was too high and may have made me feel strange due to my medications).

I love this, so it's fewer pills for me to swallow.And it really helps you relax especially for spasaming muscles.

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.

I've been taking the pill form of L-Theanine for a year now and I wanted to try something that absorbed faster. The taste isn't bad, but it's a little bit much. As soon as I take it I feel something that starts as relaxation and ends up being the jitters like crazy. My boyfriend has been calling me "squirrely" all day. I was late to work and left wet laundry in a bag by the door. I left my keys at work, and I haven't been able to focus my conversation all evening.That being said...I think that a person trying to relax while taking this needs to actively do just that: relax. Put this stuff in a glass of juice or water and sip til it's gone. Put the phone away, turn off the TV, and spend five minutes meditating and letting the medicine do its work. This stuff doesn't work if you're already super busy and frantic, it just ends up making you feel weird and buzzy.I'm gonna try this again this week and see how I do.

Works. Good amount of product.

This does calm me when I am feeling anxious. The flavor is lemony and the dropper is fine to use. 8 have measured the amount the dropper delivers and it is pretty much accurate. It’s easy to use and I like to put is in my 16 ounces tumbler with ice and soda water and sip it at work. I have bought several and currently have the on subscription for the savings - it lasts about 45 days for me.

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.

I have used L-theanine capsules for years, it relaxes me and helps me to sleep really well. This liquid is even better for ease of dosing and the flavor is delicious. Lately I have been mixing myself an evening "mocktail" with a dropper or two of this into some flavored seltzer and ice. It's delicious and helps me to wind down before bed, with no grogginess the next morning!
