L-theanine (from green tea), a derivative of L-glutamic acid, may possess mood-modulating activity as a result of increase production of alpha-brain wave activity. Stressful or fast-paced lifestyles, compounded by the grossly inferior Standard American Diet (SAD) have resulted in widespread neurotransmitter imbalances which may often manifest as altered mood, sleep disturbances, carbohydrate cravings or weight gain, focal or diffuse muscle pain, and headaches. Tryptophan assimilated into the body is metabolized to the amino acid 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) which is the precursor to the synthesis of 5-hydroxytryptamine, which along with dopamine and norepinephrine, are the three main monoamine neurotransmitters. Commonly referred to as the “feel good” neurotransmitt
