## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you choose between their Suntheanine and their 5-HTP? Both seem to do the same thing.**
A: 5-HTP is the tryptophan-based intermediate to serotonin which most antidepressants work to increase or support.
It's more specifically targets serotonin, needed for a balanced mood.

Suntheanine, a patented and advanced form of L-Theanine, has a broader range of psychotherapeutic and neuro- cognitive benefits than does 5-HTP.

It works as an anti-anxiety from multiple paths. 1) It supports the levels of gaba to calm the brain 2)It blocks glutamate receptors in the brain from receiving an excitatory neurotrans-mitter 3) It induces Alpha Waves in the brain.

Additionally, as a small molecule powerful antioxidant, it crosses the blood brain barrier to reach neurons directly where it fight oxidation in them. 

This gives it the ability to fight or offer benefit against a wide range of age-related neuro-cognitive conditions such as memory loss, learning impairments, attention deficits, dementia, Alzheimer's etc.

**Q: Has anyone taken Suntheanine by opening the capsules and adding to liquid?  If so, how is the taste?**
A: My daughter, after first asking the doctor if it was safe, decided to try it with her Autistic child.  Since she can't swallow pills, my daughter opens the capsule and places it into applesauce or a similar food.   It still seems effective and my grandchild didn't seem to mind or notice any bad taste.  So, I assume if it can be placed in food, it should be fine to also place it in a liquid.  I hope this has helped you with your questions.

**Q: I see some theanine comes from China. I would prefer one produced in the USA. Does any ingrediant in this come from China?**
A: What is the country of origin for Doctor's Best products?Doctor's Best products are quality tested and manufactured in the United States using highly qualified cGMP manufacturers and raw material ingredients. Doctor's Best sources raw materials from around the world and ingredients are subject to the intense testing and verification regardless of geography of origin.- See more at: http://www.drbvitamins.com/products/suntheanine-l-theanine-150mg/drb-00197#sthash.wAlbJQD6.dpuf

**Q: Does this contain caffiene?**
A: It doesn't state anywhere on the bottle that it contains caffeine. I'm not sure, you will have to investigate further.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***4 on 28 December 2025*

I find this particular formulation of L-Theanine to be a very good adjunct to help me fall asleep and stay asleep. This formula by the Doctor's Best brand has "Suntheanine," which is a patented form of the amino acid L-Theanine known to promote relaxation. I've taken this formula steadily for about a year at bedtime with only good results as part of an overall sleep hygiene routine that also includes listening to a Calm sleep story on the app in my phone, next to my bed. Also why I like this particular formulation is that it has just 150 mg of the Suntheanine/L-theanine in it, which is less than most other formulas on the market. IMO, less of something often translates to "more." I don't know how long it stays in the system, but probably not for very long, because I wake up normally, with no leftover drowsiness. Another reason why I like this supplement is because it's NON-hormonal. Some folks use melatonin to promote sleep, but I've always avoided that, since melatonin is a hormone, and from what I understand, it's not meant to be used long-term. For me, this has performed as a safe and effective over-the-counter sleep aid. As of December 2025, it was still reasonably priced.
