L-Theanine Alpha Waves

Meaning

L-Theanine Alpha Waves describes the psycho-physiological phenomenon where the amino acid L-Theanine, often used as a nutraceutical, promotes the generation of alpha brain wave activity, typically associated with a state of relaxed, yet focused, wakefulness. This neurophysiological effect is clinically leveraged to reduce perceived stress and anxiety without inducing sedation, supporting a calm mental state conducive to optimal daytime hormonal function and pre-sleep relaxation. The modulation of these brain waves provides an objective measure of the compound’s central nervous system impact.
