Chewable tablets with ingredients important for mood and reducing stress*
Key ingredients
L-theanine: Amino acid that acts as a glutamate receptor antagonist (1).* In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, L-theanine was shown to significantly reduce stress (2).* In individuals 8-12 years of age, L-theanine has been shown to significantly increase the number of nights with restful sleep and reduce nocturnal motor activity (3).*
5-HTP (from Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract): 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) crosses the blood-brain barrier and is a precursor to serotonin and melatonin (4).* Serotonin is important for regulating mood and sleep-wake function (5).
