Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 We tried l-theanine early on at 100mg and got better focus. When we tried to increase we got a circular rash. Others have mentioned that they have successfully used 200mg so if you use it, I would start at 100mg and slowly increase.I really like vinpocetine; it definitely helped with language production. We give at 5mg. It can cause headaches so I give it with phosphydylcholine.HTH SSent from my iPhone Looking for information on these two, positive, negative, side effects, etc?

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 I used L-theanine for my son and he went nuts. He became more hyper, much more aggressive, and unmanagable. He takes vinpocetine, too. However I have not seen anything good or bad. Every kid reacts differently. You just need to try. You can use GABA instead of theanine. They do the same thing..

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Theanine works great with GABA for my son. I had to stop it for my daughter b/c it made her weepy. L-theanine is derived from green tea. I don't know if it has something phenolic to it, the way tea does, but it wasn't good for her!

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 You know, with the Vinpocetine, I would give it and really see some positive results but after a month or two I would stop; I would give as needed. For us, what I think VInpocetine did was help free up the ability to produce more language so when we were working on lessons at home, she was more verbal. I don't think she loses the language that is taught(gained) while on Vinpocetine but I think there is a "plateau". So, I geive it whenever I think she has hit a "block". I don't give it continueously because the liquid PPC is very expensive. HTH, S. To: mb12 valtrex Sent: Sat, February 5, 2011 1:21:06 PMSubject: Re: Theanine and Vincocepine Thanks .

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 I just looked at my notes so let me add that with L-THeanine I saw a "lessening of behavior which helped her focus) but again we stopped because she got a rash ring on her neck that took FOREVER to go away. We approached it again a year later and didn't see any changes. S.
