Hello Dr . Sung firstly thank you for another great informative video. I just had a quick question regarding if L-Theanine is present in green tea extract. Thank you and have some good holidays .
@@realdragonking7779 Dr Sung sells this on his website in the description box
I wouldn’t recommend drinking tea before bedtime though. Even though it has the L-Theanine, it has caffeine also which might keep you awake at night 😊.
I was curios what affect a combination of l-theanine and CBD
would have on the human mind and body
when it comes to reducing inflammation.
Do you have any information on this combination,
Or do you think you could do a future video on it?
Thanks for sharing your videos,
They are so welcomed and informative.
I've been using this for years, the Suntheanine capsulated version. I've used it to stop panic attacks and it works so I think it begins crossing the blood brain barrier within 10 minutes of taking it which is the time it takes for me to start feeling relief. The gut starts to relax, breathing normalizes and the mind starts to calm down. I've read that L-Theanine can used by the brain as a neurotransmitter for when stress has depleted your inhibitory neurotransmitters allowing the excitatory neurotransmitters to run amok causing a panic attack. Restoring that neurotransmitter balance is key for dealing with panic attacks. So a word of caution, however, that the Dr. touched on. I tried a cheap, non-Suntheanine brand once and it was horrible. I felt like I had just consumed 5 cups of coffee so it was probably not very pure and full of D-Theanine. Stick with brands selling the Suneathine ingredient and/or go natural with green tea.
Which brand do you recommend? On a related note, everyone raves about NAC. And i ve tried 2 different brands, both felt like i had just consumed 3 cups of expresso followed by a sugar crash.
@@gskyle4822 what is NAC for? I bought some but haven't started it yet..
@@Lightonahill25 COPD, liver detox, or energy booster. It supposes to be an immune boosting super antioxidant. But somehow it doesn't agree with me.
@@gskyle4822 thanks, I got some as a covid prevention (live in France where we don't have this stuff) but haven't taken it yet.
which brand?
I like the way this guy does his presentation. The white board is really helpful.
Agreed and no crazy flipping to video images back and forth like so many think they need to use now. I dont need to see a clip of someone eating a cheeseburger to demonstrate when talking about appetite.
This is good basic info. Anyone suffering from the disorders mentioned, use l theanine with magnesium bisglycinate and rest well! Also works great for pulled/strained muscles, restless leg syndrome etc.
Thank you for this highly professional, clear, topical video. I am an EM physician. My personal experience is that L-theanine 300mg, at bedtime, allows me to both fall asleep and stay asleep. Being a menopausal female, even subtle changes are clear. This helps! Hopefully it will persist.
Thanks for all you do in the ER. Best, Dr. Jin
❤
Ehat brand do you use? Is it from natural source???
Great wonderful video !! So complex that tiny minerals can have such an effect on well being.
Thank you
Happy Healthy New Year
Thanks Dr. Sung. :)
Yes, I love l Theanine capsules
. They have helped me a lot.🥰❤️
Thank you Dr. Sung, I've needed this information for a long time. I've tried other supplements with little yo no results.
Thank you.
Thank you
Having some green tea now.
Always✅
Graci Doctor!
Jahovah and his son gave u a blessing.
I tried L-Theanine on and off for my Tourette's, and I have found that it significantly reduces the number of tics that I experience. It usually takes a few weeks to start working effectively, but it has been consistently effective during the time periods that I have taken it.
Also works great for dogs in high anxiety situations such as car sickness, large crowds or even fireworks. Tried and true.
Had no idea! Thank you for that info, I have a dog that shakes in the car and hates being in there. I’ll search to see dosing but keeping my fingers crossed this works.
@@milicamarshastefanovich3312 my daughter and son in law were moving across the Country to his new post and one of their German Shepards normally couldn't make it to the corner without throwing up. I gave her a bag. I make it into a paste 1st as it's difficult to completely dissolve. 1 tsp to enough water to make paste then thinned by adding more and more water until filling his large dog water bowl. They had a pleasant and uneventful trip. For my little Yorkie who is about 10 pounds, I use 1/8 to 1/4 tsp. Works great. I hope this helps you.
@@SoCalRvca thank you so much for this!! I greatly appreciate it 🙏🏼
@@milicamarshastefanovich3312 you're very welcome. Happy New Year!
@@SoCalRvca Thank you 😊 Happy New Year to you as well.
Thank you
Lemon Balm tea is so nice for stress relief
Yes, it helped me so much thru a year long intestinal battle.
Thank you Dr. Jin W. Sung for all your wonderful videos !
Super, Black tea is great. Twinings, Irish Breakfast Tea.
Dr. Sung, I looked though all your videos in search of specifically Arthritis. I understand reducing inflammation using NAC however are there other options? Thank you in advance.
Thank you Dr. Sung; I recently was diagnosed with lupus and added this to my daily supplements, I also am taking Boswellia recommended by you 👍
What brand are yoy using for theanine? Is it organic?
Check out goodbye lupus dr. Brooke Goldner
I use 1/16th teaspoon in my coffee most mornings, just for the brain focusing abilities.
thanks alot
L theanine suitable with me.. but must consume everyday at least 1 weeks.
L-Theanine has really assisted me with anxiety attacks when driving. Really a game changer. However, I've read some people have eye/retinal issues after use. Not sure how to research this.
Dr. Sung, do you think it would help with tachycardia?
I just injected some from Pharmacy the other day. Good Stuff
How many mg?
@@ELBrown213 about 4 ccs
I always take it when I take too much coffee and it works well to remove the shakes.
What brand do you use?
@@sixpackbinky ELITE from Amazon
Since it is neuroprotective would this help for tinnitus
I take calm magnesium powder
What time of the day is the best to take it???
Green tea before bed seems like it would cause insomnia because of the caffeine.
Wouldn’t decaf green tea do same ??
I had a professor at uni who would always say "blood bain barrier" - Don't worry Dr. Sung, it's a tongue twister that many people struggle with. Nice quick vid!
You got me. My videos are usually one take with no edits. I write the board with no edits also thus the "typos", all during my lunch hour.
"Uni" means you're from Canada, welcome aboard.
Best, Dr. Jin
@@DrJinSung It's impressive that you're able to produce the quality of content that you do in such a small allotment of time. Keep up the good work!

You do amazing in one take. I slip up way more than that@@DrJinSung
Suntheanine patented naturally synthesized brand
Don’t drink caffeine before bed. Bad idea!
I wanted to ask a question for anyone who's been taking L Theanine for a while. I love the calming effects, but every time I've taken this for more than a few weeks I end up with tarry stools. Yeap. To me, that means blood. Not sure if this is stomach bleeding or something going on in the intestines. I've tried a few different brands, and some are worse than others. I can usually go two-plus weeks before this happens. Has anyone else experienced this? I've stopped and started several times to confirm the effect is coming from the supplement.
💪🏾🔥
caffeined drink before bed - better think several times before using this advice
Has anybody with MSG sensitivity tried L-Theanine?
I understand part of its action is lessening the effect of glutamate in the brain.
It help me for Anxiety and stress, but only about 70% i would say, i tryed also 5-HTP with L Theanin, and it made my anxiety much worse, so i wonder if i cant try take L Theanine and Ashwagandha toogether?
Hello, doctor. Can I take l-theanine if I have thiamine deficiency? I am avoiding green tea because it prevents vitamin b1 from absorption.
I got the L theanine powder odering from Australian ebay, and I found it worked effectively after mixing with coffee. However, I didnt find the same result as the green tea from costco, the tea pocket/powder did nothing to my system
Decaf too? I’m caffeine sensitive
Hi Dr. Can L-Theanine help to reduce my cortisol level?🙏🏼🙏🏼
is it likely that i will built tolerance?
Will decafeinated green tea work ???
Excuse me doctor, something that i would to ask maybe "out of topic" But how we can got a pure synthetic of L-Theanine
How long can you take it for?
I swear this works.
I want to begin taking L-theanine and i would like to know if it is ok to start on 400mg?
Just a question though. You mentioned 400mg is a good upper dose, but how much is in a medium sized cup of green tea?
200 mg to 400 mg
about 40mg if you do it the traditionally way of 1g matcha powder.
I work in a very very stressful enviroment. I need to not feel stressed or drugged. I'm not sure who I can speak with about taking my prescription meds and vitamins and take L-Theanine. I take a lot of vitamins to build up my immune system so I will not get covid. Can I take L-Theanine same time I take my vitamins?
Have you tried it?
Can L theanine help histamine intolerance (like in a flare) or vagus nerve ? Thank you for your videos.
Yes...no ??
I can take low acid organic coffee from Mexico.But I cannot drink any organic tea even if it's latte white tea.Whatever tea, it gives me severe heartburn.And there must be something in it to cause this
but a cup a matcha tea is only 40mg, is it ok to drink 10 cups a day?
Sorry if I am being picky, I believe you meant D isomer, not polymer. I've been greatly enjoying your videos.
But green tea and I believe oolong tea all those teas have caffeine how is it going to help me relax I wish she would explain more.
I think green tea has some caffiene, so I drink green tea for studying because it helps Calmness + focus. But its not hyper focus like from coffe or other tyoes of tea. I study physics and I drink green tea and I focus and feel calm at the same time, For just calmness i think it is L theanine Supplementation. But ask your doctor first.
Great if you take amps for ADHD. It takes the edge off.
Do you take this when you take your add medication like adderall?
Could you discuss ashwagandha ?
F
so is this why tea is healthier than coffee?
did u suggest drinking tea before bed? love theanine, but im trying to keep caffeine out of my evening. can you talk more about this? really enjoying the vids, very useful
I drink decaf green tea before bed. Not sure if the L-Theanine content is affected during the decaf process. Good question.
The theanine will block the effects of caffeine that keeps you awake. So you can take the green tea at night and it will actually call you and help you fall asleep.
Coffee has around 5 times higher caffeine content, also the caffeine in green tea binds with the l-theanin to be slowly absorbed, so you won't feel that energetic rush and crash from it.
Green tea not for people with hypothyroid.
Is this ok for restless leg
AND FIBROMYALGIA
AND OXALATES PLEASE
And will it cause drowsiness during the day?
Yes can cause drowsiness as it’s a relaxant. Better to take at night time higher doses. Or take it with caffein during day in lower dose.
Thank you, u look different?
So drink tea with caffeine before bed…?
Tried this, felt like i was dying. My idiot dr recommended, however im also on bp meds(which she knew) which is a big no with l theanine.
Do the decaffeinated versions of these teas still contain it?
just buy the L-THEANINE in a capsule by itself..you dont need to get it from other things
@@jadezee6316 Could you recommend a brand that you think is reputable thank you?
There's not much to begin with
I’d like that question answered too. Does decaf green tea do same. ??Trying to avoid caffeine
Nature made is a good brand as well.
Terrible Gmo brand.
Does this help with caffeine jitters?
Yes, I take with 400mg pill in my coffee stirred up.
Thank you 🙏🏻 Does green tea have a lot of caffeine in it?
you can buy decaf tablets which is better than drinking the tea....1 capsule = 8 cups of tea etc
it has enough caffeine to keep me up if i drink at night, but not as much as coffee.
Very little
@@jadezee6316 Can you tell me the brand that you get?
"Suntheanine" I- theanine is the best l- theanine you can get
I got more stress from L-Theanine.
How about matcha?
Matcha is great.
@@DrJinSung dr sung is green tea bad when having hypothyroidism ?
I've taken up to 1000mg, nothing happens
Does GABA cross the bloodbrainbarrier?
taking green tea before sleep? you must be kidding, it has tons of caffeine in it
Matcha green tea doesn’t have as much.
Um.decaf? 🙄
