Stress and anxiety have become all too common in the modern, hectic lifestyles of many Canadians. Life can get overwhelming. Although we are often unable to alter certain environmental stressors and life circumstances, we can support the body's resilience to stress. Cyto Theanine is designed to improve stress response and reduce anxiety with a gentle yet effective approach.
L-theanine is a unique amino acid found naturally in green tea that is well known to calm the mind and improve concentration. Research has shown that L-theanine can positively affect various neurotransmitters in the brain such as serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, ultimately leading to increased alpha brain waves and a calm, yet focused state. Clinical trials have confirmed that these actions lead to reduced anxiety in people receiving an L-theanine supplement, with animal studies showing that it can also improve learning ability.
L-theanine has many potential applications outside of cognition and mental health. Cardiovascular benefits have been demonstrated through reductions in blood pressure and inhibition of LDL cholesterol oxidation. Supplementation has also been documented to increase glutathione levels, protect healthy cells from chemotherapy drugs, protect the liver, and improve measures of immunity. Collectively, L-theanine balances the nervous system and provides powerful antioxidant support to protect the body from damage.
Magnesium is arguably one of the most important minerals for mental health and cognition. It is needed to maintain proper nerve function, create cellular energy in mitochondria, activate GABA receptors, and block the action of glutamate on NMDA receptors. Collectively, suboptimal magnesium levels create a pro-inflammatory and excitatory state in the brain. Clinical trials and large-scale evidence have shown that magnesium may be helpful for fatigue, anxiety, depression, insomnia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dementia and stress.
Cyto Theanine combines 250 mg of pure L-theanine and 20 mg of magnesium bisglycinate in each vegetarian capsule for optimal relaxation and cognitive support.
