Spring Valley L-Theanine Dietary Supplement Capsules for Mood Support, 100 mg, 100 Count

My 16 year old uses these for anxiety and they have helped tremendously. He takes them consistently, the pills are easy to take and they don’t have a weird taste to them, which is a plus. The price is fair. We’ve seen that other stores and other brands are a little higher in price so we always purchase them at Walmart.

I have ME/CFS and one of my symptoms is being hyper alert all the time and it's exhausting and stressful. Car rides are a misery and driving can be terrifying; crowds, noise, bright lights.... all tend to be interpreted as dangers so I'm constantly on the alert. I'm always on the lookout for new tweaks for treating my symptoms and making my life a bit easier. The l- theanine has calmed that 'fight/ flight' jumpiness noticeably in just a few weeks. I have been less tense in the car, less reactive to stimuli in general, have felt less tension in my muscles, and have been able to cut back a little on a medication that deals with stress- related IBS. I have noticed no side effects as yet; I am especially happy that drowsiness isn't even listed, so I can take this to make trips outside my home bearable even when I drive. I haven't really felt less brain fog or improved mental clarity, but that may come in time, and even if it doesn't, the reduction in the physical symptoms is more than reason enough to continue taking this.

This really helped lower my anxiety. I still have thoughts about having anxiety, but my body didn’t produce the physical symptoms.

Two in the morning with a good amount of coffee if you are a coffee drinker.It provides a synergistic effect and great.Mental clarity and focus. excellent natural supplement!!!

Idk about anxiety thing but if you want uninterrupted sleep this one for you, not good if there is emergency though lol because you'll probably never wake up if someone screaming,

I have used this product for several years. I generally take it in the AM to help start off my day. I get anxiety attacks and feel that it helps minimize the effects. Although I have tried prescription options, this product does not affect my personality nor makes me feel worse like prescription options. It seems to be the active ingredient in most natural mood stabilizers. It certainly has been a good find for me, I would recommend it.

Bought this to help calm my mind at bedtime. Only started taking a few nights ago. To my understanding have to take 7-10 days for it to start working. No stomach issue so gonna keep taking. Only reason gave it one less star was idk the results yet.

I’ve been taking this for about two weeks and I can’t determine if I can tell a difference yet? Maybe it takes a longer amount of time before noticing results? I am taking it to boost my moods that I think give me less energy and for vision. Some days my mood are better, but that could just be me and my mindset. I have not noticed anything with vision.

What I received did not match the Theanine pictured. It is Spring Valley brand L-Theanine 100 mg 100 count, yes, but the ingredients are completely different! This item contains SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE. The stuff that makes shampoo (%26 some toothpaste) foam up. It also contains POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL. I'm not surprised people had stomach issues. Polyethylene Glycol is sold commercially as MiraLAX. This contains a laxative! I read the label on the website before I ordered this product. I stupidly took this before reading the label at home, not realizing it wouldn't match what I ordered. Huge mistake! It messed me up.

Did not like it. Tried it for the first time once it got delivered and after about 15-30mins it made me feel spaced out, brain foggy and actually made me feel more anxious than I did before. Thankfully this is a smaller dose and it didn’t last that long. If you find yourself in a similar state, remain calm. After about 3-4 hours you should feel normal again. L-Theanine is commonly found in tea leaves at smaller doses. Guess I’ll stick to my morning and night time teas.
