Life Extension's Theanine XR™ is 400 mg of L-theanine in a single tablet with extended-release technology. The format is designed to deliver the amino acid gradually throughout the day, rather than all at once.
Composition and form: what's inside the pill
One vegetarian tablet contains 400 mg of L-theanine, an amino acid extracted primarily from green tea leaves. The formula combines immediate and sustained release: some of the substance is absorbed immediately, the rest is absorbed gradually.
Excipients: microcrystalline cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, stearic acid, silicon dioxide, vegetable stearate, croscarmellose sodium, glycerin. Gluten-free product, Non-GMO certified by Life Extension.
L-theanine: what is it and why is it chosen?
L-theanine is an amino acid naturally found in green tea. It is responsible for the characteristic calm state after a cup of quality green tea - without drowsiness, without inhibition.
In supplements, it is most often chosen to maintain calm in stressful situations, focus, and a comfortable sense of balance throughout the day. Theanine XR™ is positioned as a long-acting stress relief formula - one tablet covers the daily requirement without repeated doses.
What is different about XR extended release technology?
Regular L-theanine tablets or capsules release the substance all at once - the concentration in the blood rises quickly, then drops just as quickly. The XR (extended release) format is designed for gradual release over several hours.
For daily use, this means a more even background effect without sharp peaks. That is why the composition contains hydroxypropyl methylcellulose - a matrix substance that controls the rate of dissolution of the tablet.
How much L-theanine should I take per day and when?
The manufacturer recommends one tablet per day - this is 400 mg of L-theanine. The intake can be combined with or without food. If necessary - according to the recommendations of a doctor.
A bottle of 30 tablets is designed for a monthly course with daily intake. Since the tablet has a matrix structure, it should not be divided or crushed - this violates the mechanism of extended release.
Who is this format suitable for?
Theanine XR™ is convenient for those who want to support calmness and focus throughout the day without having to take multiple doses. One tablet in the morning - and there is no need to return to the supplement again.
