Stress and anxiety have become all too common in the fast-paced, modern lifestyles of many Canadians. Life can become overwhelming. While we are often unable to change certain environmental stressors and life circumstances, we can support the body's resilience to stress. Cyto Theanine is designed to improve the stress response and reduce anxiety with a gentle yet effective approach.

L-theanine is a unique amino acid naturally found in green tea that is well known for calming the mind and improving focus. 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 those receiving L-theanine supplementation, with animal studies showing it can also improve learning ability.

L-theanine has many potential applications beyond 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 when it comes to 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 can 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. Cyto Theanine can be used acutely or preventatively to improve mood, cognition, sleep, and stress management, without the risk of drowsiness or sedation.
