Why do you wish to pay for a supplement when it is present in green tea, which would be far less expensive, and has some anti-oxidant qualities in addition?

would be careful L theanine is a gabaergic like amino acid and has effect on gaba and glutamate in the brain because you already take rivotril which is a benzo effect can be additive .
