@@TEONAN happy happy-ing!
🤟🏽 Great video!
Thanks! whats your experience been like?
Great video on this topic
Happy to help
I got the same scale you used in this video for around 20 bucks on amazon, worth the investment - easy win!
It's sooo worth it
Thank you so much for all this great info my friend, especially when you show the teaspoon and the amount in it measured. This is EXACTLY what I was needing to know. I came to that conclusion on my own about the weight, but I was not 100% sure my scales were accurate at these small levels, so this is confirmation they are and that I have indeed found the "right" amount in a teaspoon without having to weigh it every time. Awesome !
For SURE! capsules so much more expensive but the convenience of them makes them attractive. Its not effective to have to take out a milligram scale EVERYTIME. So its better to just stick to the same visual dose whether its plus or minimum 50mg shouldn't be an issue.
HAppy to help - where are you getting your theanine from?
@@nextlevelwarrior I am in the uk, I get it off ebay..Charge products is the company. I realised after your video that I was in fact taking a lot less than what was recommended, so I upped my dose and definitely felt calmer that morning. Just took another half level teaspoon 5 mins ago LOL.... Thanks again my friend.
I hope youre not taking too much there. The amount I suggest in the video is around 1/3rd of a 1/2 (measuring) tsp. If you take half of 1 tsp that's going to be over 500mg easily.
It might be worth weighing it out once just to see for sure. Either way it wont be harmful but you'll have a higher tolerance. At lest the powder isn't so expensive
@@nextlevelwarrior Point taken my friend. I do make sure it is completely level, and now I will edge towards lass than the half mark. I take a day or 2 off a week, when I feel I am not really needing it, so I am guessing that will help regarding the tolerance levels too. Thanks for your input , much appreciated.
I liked the presentation a lot
Thankyou! I love your photo. I've seen this many times throughout the years.
Hi next level warrior. Thanks a lot for your great professianal and informative videos. I am struggling with anxiety. What do you think if i start taking magnesium bisglycinate with l theanine and ashwagandha
HTanks for reaching out and for the praise. There shouldnt be any issues in mixing these. When I go on ashwaganha cycles as I am this month I use all 3 of them. Is this present struggle something more recent or its been ongoing for a whi;e?
to answer your question- they will all help with great sleep, some with lowering stress markers and so on. Theres no need to take them at the same time. The Ashwa has more of a cumulative effect over time as does magnesium, where as the L theanine will have an effect shortly after taking it to help calm the mind
@@nextlevelwarriorthanks for your reply. I have been struggling with anxiety ocd overthinking etc for these last 4 years and a half now. I tried cbd oil cbd vape medical marijuana provanax. Now its my 3rd month on zoloft and my 2nd week on magnesium bisglycinate. Im feeling relieved and a lot better. I was searching on l theanine and ashwagandha and i am thinking for adding them too. Do you know how i can take the ashwaganda and the l theanine supplements. And do i have to cycle them and if yes how please. Thanks a million buddy for your help. Keep it up you are helping a lot of people 👍👍🙏
what do you suggest when it comes to suntheanine? ive read its more potent? i was iffy at first coz im not about the "synthetic" stuff.. but suntheanine has been around for so long and so many studies have been done on it
It's true, alot of things have referenced to suntheanine in particular and in part because of its patented and financial backed influence. This is the trouble with studies.. There's a big need for very pricy funding in order to carry out the studies. In my nearly 7 years of using L theanine (mostly one brand and experimenting with other) I haven't found much difference in any that claim 100% purity. When I tried suntheanine out for 2 months straight daily (around 2 yrs ago) I didn't find any difference in it VS bulk supplements' l theanine. I wouldn't worry too much about branding. So long as you can get verification from the seller/producer that it's 100% L theanine and no D theanine or other fillers then you'll be using the best thing. The one I use (depending on where you live) has the best cost/quality out there
Love your videos. Question. My Mom suffers from anxiety, she has been taking GABA 600mg and L-Theanine 250mg in the morning at breakfast along with other vitamins like B1 and zinc.
She has awful insomnia, and take magnesium at night but should she take the L-theanine at night instead, or another 250mg before bed with her magnesium? Thank you!
Is it mag glycinate she takes in the evening?
A second dose of theanine would help get to sleep for sure. If possibly to start with a smaller dose to see if it helps (100 to 150 of LT). The magnesium and LT could go at the same time. It's worth experimenting with 30min before bed instead of immediately before bed. Also worth experimenting with taking the LT at different times of the day to see how it impacts her. For example trying 2 or 3 hrs after getting up. I know this is alot but a second suggestion (assuming she drinks caffeine) is to cut it off 8 to 10 hrs before bed. Hope this helps.
Send her my blessings.
@@nextlevelwarrior She is taking Magnesium Citrate but only 205mg (Calm). She drink coffee, 1 in the morning and 1 around 1pm. I told her to cut the one at lunch, but she loves her coffee!
If she experiments with L-Theanine, if she takes the 250 mg in morning, can she take another 100mg at bed? She shouldn't go over 400mg total? Or can she? If she needs.
Do you cycle theanine like for example maybe not take it on the weekends and only use it between Monday and Friday or do you actually use it every single day
Every single day that I drink coffee, which is pretty much every day, other than a few times a year that I cycle off it for a week or 2. Have you tried cycling it? I find it just keeps doing what I need it to do, but will have to experiment with cycling it in the future.
Thanks for the entertaining and informative video. I plan to see how this stuff works for sleep promotion. Never been a real good sleeper, which for me produces anxiety.
I ordered from bulk supplements, but in the meantime I got some 100mg gelcaps from Walmart and hopeful they aren’t actually filled with the D - Theanine that you spoke of ( on the bottle it states that it’s a product of China,,,,,what could possibly go wrong….?
Will start with the 100 mg per night and see how it goes.
Lol I appreciate the optimism. Hope for the best and if I may suggest try experimenting with your dose timing before bed. Ie: 30 min before sleep for a week then maybe an hour to see how it impacts the experience.
Gelcaps are super handy. I keep a few handy in my car for any sudden needs.
Side note: taking a few hundred mg before a dentist visit has been incredible
@@nextlevelwarrior Hey Thanks a bunch for the pro tips. Heh, yeah the dentist.
Let’s not talk about it.lol.
I just took 100 mg of this stuff and it absolutely changed my entire perspective on anxiety medicine. I’ve been on Xanax for the last year and I would not switch back to it if you paid me over this stuff. The first time I took it I took a 400 mg capsule and it made me really feel terrible. However I broke the capsule into four separate piles and just drank it in water, I felt so much better and different on a smaller dose! Thanks 🙏
Thank you from me and everyone I that reads this for sharing your insight. Its great that you discovered your sensitivity. What felt so aweful about taking the larger dose initially though?
@@nextlevelwarrior I just wasn’t aware that it was such a large dose in the one capsule. After doing some research I found that it was entirely too much I think it’s just a person to person basis. But is excellent for sure! Good work on the video… Also how did you not die from eating that scoop ??? 🤷♂️🙌💪
@@johndrax4174 Yea thats double the regular dose for a standard capsule. Well I woulddnt put myself in that level of risk - I knew that any side effects would be super minimal at best, especially with plenty of experience trying hald gram doses. thanks for the praise, please do tell other people you come across that are either considering anti anxiety meds or those wanting to come off about L Theanine.
Cheers
Wow that's amazing im currently coming off Clonazapam and hoping this nutropic will help..
@@brockgangell5759 did you prefer colonapen over Xanax or just took the one?? I’m in Xanax but it’s like it doesn’t work anymore… I can literally take 6-8 (0.5 mg) and not feel …. I know most people say tolerance but I’ve been off them months and come back and take. 3-4 .5’s and felt absolutely Narda… Anyone have any thoughts
Andrew Lssman Pro cap Labs...wonderful!
thanks for the suggestion. What else have you had from this branding?
After a ton of research, almost on the verge of agreeing to medication I took the plunge to try L -theanine...and wow. I started with 2 x 200mg and it took the edge off my day...upped to 400mg in the morning (I pop it in a cup of green tea so it might absorb easier) and 400mg before bed.
Genuine results are...more relaxed, more productive, more energy. Able to face stressfull tasks better, my rem sleep is much better ( trust me when you suffer anxiety you annalise everything) I've researched this amnio acid and cannot find anything that has worried me, many wise people like monks already knew this, many people taking this over 15 years with nothing but benefits. L-theanine the miracle wonder ? Yes. 400mg x 2 suits me, from 2 x 100mg. How long before I saw results, less than 24 hours...no side effects, no addiction, no toxicity, just more benefits. Amazing. I do think its best adding to green tea, that makes good sense to me but if you are not a green tea drinker maybe it works in other drinks just aswell.
100mg only for the first day before a week on 200mg...
Its seriously a fkn miracle amino acid.
Appreciate you sharing your update here big time.
I havent tried adding it to green tea in the day time and definitely couldnt in the eve for rest purposes
@@nextlevelwarrior totally agree, great videos thanks for the reply.
@@stevenlawrence7274 same taking 400 morning 400 before bed i also take ashwaganda 600 morning and 600 before bed
@@hanskazan7403 What is really crazy is....the information is out there, but your Doctor only knows about pharmaceutical medicine from his training. At no point do doctors bother to train up or be trained in natural alternatives that in alot of cases is much better. Dont get me started on Statins, Magnesium, Beet juice, Walnuts, Blueberries, Sprouts, D3 with greens for K to K2, I know more about natural foods then my Doctor...meds are right for some people but not always the best for your body....can make things worse.
Is it generally OK to empty capsules into water and drink it? I have 100mg tabs and I want to start with 50mg. Thanks for addressing sensitivity. I have that! Lol
You're most welcome! You'll save a bunch on dosing for sure. Mixing it with water is 100% good
Great video bro! I drink chimarrão instead of coffee and it works perfectly haha! Hey you have an extraordinary grasp of English! It is impressive!
I had no idea Mate was called Chimmarao in Brasil. I actually didnt drink coffee until my late 20's I remeber passing out every day in college I.T. lectures.
Thanks for the compliment - Ive been practicing since I came to Canada at 3 years of age. And if it wasnt for going to Brasil in 2012 & 2014 I would not have been able to understand half of what you replied back to me on those comments in your videos.
Next Level Warrior I drank one litter per day. I decided to change because I got high blood pressure. 😜

Great video. I take 600mg first thing in the morning to prepare me for the day ahead. Seems to help reduce my anxiety a lot.
Thanks! thats quite the dose. Did you work up to that or start with that much right away?
@@nextlevelwarrior Interesting how you see 600mg as a high dose. I take 1.6-2g of l-theanine when dosing. I started with just a 200mg dose which had no effect on me. Then started upping my dosage by 200mg until I started feeling the benefits around 1600mg.
@@spencerrichmond5845 well there's no doubt that you went about it in the best way with increments and attention to it. I know that personally I was super unaware of its effects that were working when I was new to it. And there's a bunch of data about what "high doses" are and what not to exceed so I don't just want to tell everyone that they should be taking 1000mg a day to start :). One guy commented recently that a small dose immediately game him headaches and nausia. I have no idea how that could happen but some people can def respond to it differently I guess. Or something else is going on
@@spencerrichmond5845 have you tried a different brand at all. Or has this all been from the same source?
@@nextlevelwarrior I have only been using the brand “Now”. I am also very sensitive to caffeine so I typically drink a small cup of coffee 3-5 times a week. When I do drink coffee is when I use l- theanine. Without the l-theanine caffeine makes me feel unbearably anxious. Now I have l-theanine and can enjoy this amazing combo!
How would this nutropic work with 5htp, Lion's Main and gaba , for adhd anxiety and agoraphobia? I've just ordered a bottle so im hoping it will help???
It shouldnt have any specific interactions with those youre taking, but may be worth trying it on it own to feel the effects. Happy experimenting!
@@nextlevelwarrior thanks for the information mate
@@brockgangell5759 Happy to help. Drop me an update with how it goes
I received L-theanine powder today after taking capsules for about a week. I'm tempted to take some (200mg) before bedtime, which is around 1 am together with my herbal sleep aid capsules.
I hope my alarm will wake me up in time for work..
I dont think itll impact waking up, itll just make the sleep even better. Might be worth trying to take the LT 30 min before bed. How did your first week go by the way?
@@nextlevelwarrior it was amazing ~ my sleep score improved by more than 10 points. I fell asleep much faster and my deep sleep increased by about 30%. So amazing!!! I was more alert and productive during the day.
I have milder POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) so I suffer from fatigue, anxiety and brain fog ~ and I teach English at an academy. So I also took LT in the morning to tone down any negative effects of the nootropic stack I take in the morning for brain fog. It really made a huge difference!!! Thanks ⚘ for sharing the LT love ❤!!!
@@renevanwyk4775 Thats a serious improvement. Happy to help. Make sure to spread the news on LT
I am looking to see if you recommend this for sleep?
Absolutely. It's on the top end of my list to experiment with for difficulties sleeping. Though also to bring awareness to anything else that could be hindering sleep - such as light exposure, stressors, and having any caffiene within 10 hours of bed time. Have you tried anything else yet?
i actually take this for sleep and it has helped me so much
@@taniabotello158 how soon before bed do you take it?
@@nextlevelwarrior i take it about 30 minutes before, you can even do 15 minutes before sleep! I had used this as an alternative to prescription medication since i was having anxiety induced insomnia, i would not wake up during the night and i didn’t have a hard time falling asleep either. i do take zoloft in the mornings for my anxiety and i would take this supplement at night and i didn’t notice any interactions between both of the medications.
@@taniabotello158 that was a great move over adding more medication - seriously big thumbs up for that. And thankyou so much for sharing your insight and experience here. This is the type of stuff that really helps other people out. Gratidao por tudo!
I have been having trouble sleeping. I don't really experienced too much anxiety during the day but maybe just a little bit. Would I be best to take this in the evening so that I can sleep? If so, what time should I take it? And how much? How much during the day? Thank you so much for all you do!
It's worth trying. Roughly 30 min to 1 hour. Try 100mg for the evening and experiment with it in the day time when necessary. It's also well worth reviewing if you're doing any of the "no-no's" that make sleep harder. Cut off all caffeine 10 hrs before your bed time, stop all screens at least 30min before bed.
@@nextlevelwarrior - thank you SO MUCH!!! Praying my sleep gets better soon!!! I don't drink more than one cup of coffee and that is in the morning. I have to get in the habit of getting off this damn phone before bed!! Have a great week!
@@sallylehman7033 you too. Let me know how it goes.
@@nextlevelwarrior - I will! It is so strange because I have always been a great sleeper! I could have caffeine in the evening and still sleep like a baby! I had been sick with a very bad cough and went to the doctor and was on two rounds of antibiotics. This is when all of this started for me with having trouble sleeping. My doctor gave me 50 mg of trazodone which I have tried a few times and sometimes it helps but sometimes it doesn't like last night. I go to bed usually around 11 or 12 but every night it seems like I am up around 3 in the morning and can't get back to sleep for about an hour. For some reason I just get all of this anxiety right before bed. Maybe because I am anxious because I am not getting proper sleep right now. If you have any other pointers for me or anything else I could try, I am happy to hear them! Trust me, I have been Googling and youtubing different things that could help me. I also have been taking magnesium and fish oil. I would much rather take a natural supplement than a prescription medication!!
@@nextlevelwarrior I went today to look for l-theanine and I ended up purchasing Natural Factors suntheanine which are 100 mg chewable tablet. I am going to take one of these before bed! I figured I wanted to try a lower dose first to see how it affects me and this is what they had. They had 200 mg capsules but I wanted to stick with 100 to start.
Can you tell me how many years you been taking it? Thank you
Since 2014/15 now. Still take it every day that I have coffee. Why do you ask?
I want to take it for sleep But I’m scared of the Side effects . So do they have any bad side effects? Thank you.
@@mouwlylee5014 it's one of the most gentle supplements that exist. The only caution I've ever heard of in terms of side effects are only for people that are taking blood pressure medication. If you'd like to try then experiment with a low dose (50mg) or so and take it from there.
I got rid of my restless leg syndrome by taking B Complex with a B1 kicker. Should probably add some L-theanine.
worth a shot
Hello! You've suggested taking l'theanine with magnesium glycinate for anxiety. Could you please recommend daily dosages of the two for severe anxiety?
For Sure!
Magnesium glycinate - is cumulative so it builds up in the body - for this reason timing isnt too important. Just make sure to get in your 300 to 400 mg. you could split it into two doses if you wish and experiment. If you have trouble sleeping then take half or all your doses an hour before bed.
L theanine - this will start working it effects on the brain within 30 to 40 minutes.
Start with 150mg In the morning (maybe 1 hour after getting up - or earlier) and a second dose of 150mg in the early afternoon.
Wait at least 1 to 2 weeks before considering taking a 3rd dose @ 5pm. I suggest patience because when I was new to it I was very ignorant and this blocked my ability to "feel" what it was doing since it can be subtle.
You can start with 3 doses but the thing is that you may respond really well to two and this will definitely save you some cash since capsules are much more expensive than pure powder.
Hope this helps! And one favour I ask is to share your successes with friends, familiy or people you meet that are struggling with anxiety. Spread the magic of L theanine.
@@nextlevelwarrior thank you for your detailed response. You are very kind.
@@goga9436 Im always happy to help! Especially sharing whats helped me in my life.
My nose seems to be bloody. Normal? I take 200mg at night. Sometimes, another 200 mg in the afternoon, but thats expensive, so I cut back to 200 mg at night. Why? Coffee made me jittery sometimes and I didn't want to give it up.
I doubt the L theanine is causing the bleeding but this needs attention for sure.
IF you buy it in bulk powder its up to 5x cheaper.
have you tried having theanine instead with your coffee during the day? I never get jitters as long as I take Theanine with it (or around the time of drinking it)
is it OK to take both L theanine and lions mane at the same time?
Yea it stacks pretty well
Can I take L-theanine under Interment fasting?
Definitely ! this was the biggest reason I started taking it 5 yrs ago when I started IF. I couldn't drink coffee in a fasted state without theanine to balance it and help my empty stomach sensitivity. Whats your IF window?
@@nextlevelwarrior I fast from 22.00 in the evening and break my fast arounf 13.00
Reduced blood pressure would be just great for me.
So long as youre not taking any medication for lower BP, its worth the experiment
Will taking l theanine along with a multi vitamin daily Make my blood pressure to low?
@@ambersheets7734 I don’t think so,I do this daily
Hey what happened to you when you tried this mega dose
I got wayyy more nervous about it until It kicked in . I have two videos on it. The actual Theanine challenge video and the vlog I should of the experience afterwards.
weird doc said I could take this an no affect on blood pressure I'm only on a small dose of 25 mg of losartan potassium tho?
I'm not sure if that's blood pressure medication you're on as I don't know much about those meds. Most docs are aware and in alot of cases it MAY not affect blood pressure. I think it has to do with some measured results that it affected some people so they'd rather not have any liabilities so they slapp that warning label on most theanine to bring awareness.
@@nextlevelwarrior I’ve taken it daily for a while I just started really feeling the benefits on the anxiety part it’s amazing what one thing could help so much !
@@ceazyxoxo5134 Such great news! Seriously , you sound like me in the first little while of taking it where I didn't really think it was doing anything.

I've been basically dosing it daily for over 7 yrs now. Sometimes I'll have extra if I feel stressed or need to chill out. It is good though to cycle off of it if you like. It'll be more effective if you come off then go back on but I have such a big bag of it :)

@@christianjenkins4207 always happy to help
Hi, may I ask? Do I have to take it everyday to feel its effect? Or I can take it only when I need it, for example before big presentations or job interviews. Thanks
Great question! It's not like adaptogens (ashwagandha) that take weeks. It literally works right on the spot ( 30 to 40 min to hit) and lasts around 4 to 5 hours
Last time I took a megadose (1g) was before going to the dentist and it works amazingly well. I was meditating while they drilled :p
@@nextlevelwarrior thanks for the info 😁 btw 1g sounds like a huge dose. Do you build a tolerance to it, so a low dose doesn't make you feel anything? I guess I have to limit it to once or twice per week, so that my tolerance doesn't go too high, correct?
@@themuiz9671 Happy to help. tolerance is easy to build if you take large ones often. I don't do the dentist often so it was worth the experiment. play around with doses that work well for you via experimenting especially since what you asked about are things that don't happen weekly. One favour to ask though: Tell other people about L theanine!
Is it ok if i just put it under my tongue straight away?
yea theres no issue with that as long as it dissolves. You might have to drink water with it.
I’m not a coffee drinker, so how many mg should I take for mental and anti anxiety benefits?
Great question. Starting lower is always best. Go for 100mg within an hour of waking up and a second dose if needed in the early afternoon. If you're normally sensitive to supplements then you can go as low as 50mg

Yes, it's been studied quite alot over the years and while I'm no doctor I would try theanine along with balancing healthy daily practices and nutrition way before going down the road of medication. Best to start with lowest dose (depending on why the child is taking it). Start with 50mg 2x a day

@@nextlevelwarrior I just started winging it depending on how I felt and settled with that. Sometimes I take more. I’ve gone about a month with this routine and it’s great.
@@GhostCuete369 nice! Ive found that being patient in times that resistance may come up ( our mind thinking we need more) results in maintaining a pretty steady tolerance. So I pretty much stick to the same amount and then redose if needed or super dose if something stressful is happening. Take 1 gram before a dentist visit and youll be meditating in the chair :)
I take doctor best suntheanine just started taken 600-800mg
Nice - though thats pretty high to start with. Suntheanines a great brand. Ive experimented with it and a bunch of others though keep going back to bulk supplements for value - and they finally got capsules in that don't have any fillers which is great. Do you take that 6 to 800 throughout the day or in one shot?
@@nextlevelwarrior supposedly this brand is pretty good and I take it throughout the day thou
I'm tapering off benzo so I need a high does
@@reflection_8_ thoughout the day is great
@@reflection_8_ This is he best reason then 100%. Good for you for making this choice. May I ask where you had heard about using L theanine for coming off benzo's?
How about sleep...didn't hear you talk on that
Do you mean dosages for sleep?
Yes...
I believed I was "sensitivity" to coffee. Turns out it was Glyphosate poisoning. Organic never F's with me.
Damn, how was that whole process of discovering that for you?
@@nextlevelwarrior Maddening , Roundup is in everything. Conventional beef is the worst. Glyphosate concentrates in the meat from the feed but coffee is a close second . not only is it in the beans but cheap dairy is also heavily contaminated. Chicken and eggs are feed soy. Swine is sometimes safe but I won't roll the dice. Buy organic be intentional with your money .
225mg in morning and 225 at night
How soon before bed?
@@nextlevelwarrior around 1h before bed
@@MikeM-hn1hd Yea that's the perfect time. I've tried it a few times before bed though couldn't tell much of a difference so I only use it at night if shaken up by something leaving me stressed. Always same dose with coffee and a second one before o shoot these videos or any other instance to calm nervousness
@@nextlevelwarrior glad I’m doing things right 👍 keep up the great videos
@@MikeM-hn1hd Yea, don't hesitate to experiment and definitely keep a dose on hand for emergencies. It's incredible for long drives of your stressed about something else or the drive itself. Thanks for the blessings!
Great content, you deserve much more subscribers, iam surprised!!
Just one advise brother, you have too much facial expressions.
Believe me youre not the only one cringe-ing :) With the amount of time I put into making them, once they're uploaded I cant do anything else but learn from them. So this type of feedback which most people don't have the courage to be honest is extremely valuable. So aside from the other nice comments you made this is what I thankyou for the most !
Next Level Warrior 👍👍👍
Why don’t you just stop drinking coffee
Great question. Im curious the response you would get from the few billion people that drink it :)
.
This could very well be the perfect dose!
@@nextlevelwarrior Don't wanna build a tolerance!
@@theteenageexperiment1356 this is the trick for sustainable use. TNMNT
200mg a day? Lol, I do 1000 to 1500 a day last 3 years.
now thats a serious amount :) whats the experience been like with dosing consistently for that time? I havent met too many people that have been supplementing with it for a few years
Well, I take it to mellow out during the day. I don’t really have problems with anxiety, but I do drink a fair amount of coffee. I haven’t experienced any side effects. By the way, I love your content and keep up the good work!
@@helmdemon8195 much appreciated! Yea theanine is a savior to coffee drinkers though most have no idea it exists. Have you tried dosing it in any stressful situations?
Just took 2 200mg tablets before bed.
How was it?
It can be hard to tell what it did until you've got more experience with it because of how subtle it can be. Try taking it 1 or 2 hours before bed to see if that makes a difference too.
