Japanese food material manufacturer Taiyo Kagaku announced on March 22 that it has confirmed a unique property of L-theanine. In the US, the company has conducted a double-blinded clinical trial of women in their 30s to 60s.
The trial has found that those who regularly take L-theanine-contained tablets feel less-stress and menopausal symptoms alleviated. L-theanine is a kind of amino acids contained in green tea.
The company plans to present the detailed research results at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Japan Society for Bioscience, Biotechnology and Agrochemistry.
