@nourishingapothecary: If you have ADHD, one of my favourite supplements to recommend is L-theanine. L-theanine is a naturally occurring amino acid found in green tea that supports a state of calm focus. Rather than making you feel sedated, it helps promote alpha brain waves, which are associated with relaxed alertness. Many people describe it as feeling calmer, clearer and better able to concentrate. One of the reasons I love it is that it starts working relatively quickly, often within 30 minutes. That means it can be useful before studying, work, meetings or during those moments when your brain feels like it’s racing. I also regularly recommend it for people who struggle to switch off at night. Because it supports relaxation without acting like a sleeping tablet, it can help quiet a busy mind before bed. In this video I also explain: • Why I recommend it so often for adults with ADHD. • How I use it in clinic. • Why it’s one of my favourite supplements for both focus and sleep. • Its safety profile and why I find it to be a gentle option for many people. As always, supplements aren’t one-size-fits-all. If you have ADHD, it’s important to consider your symptoms, medications and overall health before deciding what’s right for you. The brand we recommend is Herbs of Gold. Shop practitioner-approved supplements at nourishingapothecary.com.au or book with one of our naturopaths if you’d like personalised guidance. #ADHD #ADHDSupplements #LTheanine #ADHDTips #Focus

I’ve been taking L Theanine since January and honestly can’t live without it now. Such a game changer for ADHD

It’s Schmeeee :
Thank you so much for all your posts. I have been prescribed amitrypiline, Dayvigo which haven’t worked plus can take a Restavit at 2am and wake up fine. But I feel like L Theanine knocks me right out and if taken too late I literally have to drag myself out of bed! So I take it as soon as I go to bed (along with Sleep Ease). The dreams are weird but I don’t care because I’m sleeping 😅
