Suntheanine (L-Theanine) for Stress Reduction and Anxiety
Suntheanine® (a purified form of L-Theanine from green tea) is a chewable supplement that may support relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety, improve focus, and promote better sleep without causing drowsiness.

While not a treatment for autism, some people find it a helpful, affordable tool for managing mild anxiety, end-of-day stimulant crashes, or general stress.
