Is it (L-Thianine) available OTC in the UK? I'm sure I bought some from [a large online commerse website] a few years ago. I'm sure I also got GABA and L-Tyrosine.
L-theanine is widely available in the UK without the need to even approach the "counter". It's a perfectly legal and non-frowned upon amino acid.
My favourite way to take l-theanine for theraputic and/or semi-recreational purposes is to mix it with coffee at a 2:1 ratio. So try taking 200mg l-theanine with 100mg of caffeine (2 level tea-spoons of instant coffee or ~2 oz espresso) to experience minor nootropic effects in what some people have coined "god mode". In other words, it's like having all the energy, rush and focus of the coffee without the jitteryness. Studies have shown improvements in cognitive functioning with this mix. Personally, it's the perfect gentle boost for when I've got to focus hard for a couple of hours.
You can find more information on "god mode" on Google, and on this BL thread.
