Developed by Lipton,
www.braintrain.com.au is Australia's first online 'mind training' site and has been designed to help explain the discovery of L-theanine - a natural component of tea which promotes a relaxed yet alert state of mind.
L-theanine is a natural amino acid found almost exclusively in tea, it stimulates brain activity, known as alpha waves . Alpha brain waves are associated with promoting a relaxed, yet alert state of mind. Research conducted by Oxford University suggests that 50mg of L-theanine, the amount found in just two to three cups of tea, is all that is needed to achieve this state2.
Hot tip: Have 2-3 cups of Lipton Quality Black Tea before you play Brain Train. The boost to your alpha brain wave activity from L-theanine can help you stay relaxed yet alert.
