Historical Background & Origins
L-theanine was initially discovered in the 1950s and has since garnered increasing popularity and acknowledgment within the scientific and health-conscious communities. Notably, L-theanine stands out as one of the rare amino acids that do not partake in protein synthesis, instead playing diverse roles in various brain functions and offering a range of health benefits.
Non-Essential Amino Acid
Categorized as a non-essential amino acid, L-theanine is not synthesized by the body and must be sourced from the diet or supplements.
THEAPURE
Predominantly sourced from tea leaves and present in minimal quantities in Bay Bolete mushrooms, L-theanine has been shown to induce relaxation without inducing drowsiness. Consequently, many individuals turn to L-theanine for stress reduction, relaxation, and improved sleep quality. Constituting approximately 1% to 2% of the dry weight of tea leaves, L-theanine solely exists in its free form and represents the most abundant amino acid in tea, comprising roughly half of all free amino acids.
