SHUT DOWN sleeplessness with this ‘leaf secret’

Friend, I know you probably haven’t slept like a baby since… well, since you were a baby! 

That’s because babies haven’t got a care in the world…  

And the only things that keep them up at night are an empty belly or a full diaper.  

It’s a lot different for folks like you and me…  

When there’s SO MUCH to plan for the future… 

SO MANY loved ones to take care of… 

And SUCH uncertainty… especially when it comes to everything from health to wealth.  

It’s enough to keep you up all night long! 

But you know you’ve GOT to get a good night’s sleep… or you’ll NEVER be able to keep all those balls in the air.  

And I’ve got something today that could help making getting that much-needed sleep a little less of a TRIAL.  

It’s considered an adaptogen for its ability to support a healthy stress response during daytime activities… 

But it also could help you “power down” when the day is over! 

Prepare for ‘sleep mode’ 

Over 70 years ago, Japanese researchers discovered a soothing substance that occurs only in CERTAIN plants…  

Especially those used in green tea, like gyokuro leaf.  

It’s the amino acid called L-theanine.  

And while the scientific community DOESN’T consider it an “essential” amino acid…  

I think you’ll agree that the sleep it could help you get is pretty CRUCIAL to your wellbeing! 

In studies L-theanine has helped promote relaxation and focus…   

And in as little as 30 minutes.   

It works by TWEAKING key brain chemicals called neurotransmitters, including… 

• BOOSTING serotonin, the “happy hormone,” and dopamine, the “pleasure hormone” 
• BLOCKING reuptake of glutamate, your brain’s “on” switch, and 
• TRIGGERING the release of GABA, your brain’s “off” switch.  

L-theanine also BEATS BACK cortisol, the “stress hormone.” 

During the day, ALL of these actions together promote a sense of restfulness WITHOUT the risk of dozing off… 

But at night, they also help ensure a good night’s sleep! 

This amino acid has demonstrated the ability in studies to IMPROVE sleep quality… even in certain folks with OVERACTIVE brain activity! 

And research has also shown that L-theanine can even counteract caffeine’s negative effects on slow-wave sleep – or the deepest phase of non-REM sleep, when you’re most likely to dream. (Of course, it’s best to limit your caffeine intake to an amount that DOESN’T disrupt your sleep.) 

Now, if you’re looking to brew up your own pot of “tranquility tea”… you’ll find more L-theanine in green tea varieties like matcha.    

For a caffeine-free alternative, you can also choose an L-theanine supplement in capsule or powder form from a quality maker you trust.  

A recommended dose is between 200 and 400 mg daily.   

Some evidence supports combining L-theanine supplements with GABA supplements… as it could help you fall asleep FASTER and sleep LONGER.  

You’ll find both L-theanine and GABA in such formulas by quality makers as…  

• “Theanine Serene” by Source Naturals, which also contains the sleep-promoting nutrients magnesium, taurine, and holy basil, and 
• “GABA Soothe” by Jarrow Formulas, which also contains the adaptogen ashwagandha.  

Check the label to be sure of what you’re getting… and in what amounts.
