For people who suffer from anxiety attacks, high blood pressure, palpitations, headaches, even people with seizures and Cancer can now look into a natural solution to big pharma's medication.
Gaba is found in green tea and is tremendously beneficial to people who suffer from these related illnesses. Gaba induces relaxation, reduces stress and anxiety, and increases focus. For some people, chronic anxiety seriously interferes with their ability to function in social or workplace settings. Low levels of Gaba, gamma-aminobutyric acid, may be a contributing factor because Gaba deficiencies can negatively affect an individual's ability to manage even the most low level stressful situations.
While many people diagnosed with anxiety disorders take prescription medications such as Valium, Xanax or Ativan, benzodiazepine drugs that stimulate Gaba receptors, these drugs often produce unwanted side effects and over time, can become less effective until the dose is increased.
L-theanine, a naturally occurring amino acid found in green tea, raises Gaba levels and has few if any side effects. L-theanine creates a calm feeling in people without the drowsiness many anti-anxiety medications have, and in almost a paradoxical affect, L-theanine also improves mental clarity and focus.
L-theanine is also know to reduce the size of tumors by reducing stress levels in the body making it easier for the immune system to strengthen, thus fight harder.
