Common questions

Is Sports Research L-Theanine healthy?

Sports Research L-Theanine scores 93/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Sports Research L-Theanine?

Sports Research L-Theanine lists 6 ingredients, starting with Suntheanine (l-Theanine), Organic Virgin Coconut Oil, Gelatin, Vegetable Glycerin and Purified Water. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Sports Research L-Theanine contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Sports Research L-Theanine’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Sports Research L-Theanine?

Sports Research L-Theanine has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Sports Research L-Theanine compare to other sleep & relaxation?

At 93/100 Sports Research L-Theanine sits in our top band, among the better sleep & relaxation we have scored. A higher-scoring option in sleep & relaxation is Nutricost L-Theanine 200 Mg Capsules at 97/100.

Is Sports Research L-Theanine organic?

Sports Research L-Theanine is not certified organic in our data.
