Limited — a handful of small, short trials report better self-rated sleep quality at around 200–450 mg a day, through relaxation rather than sedation. It will not knock you out.

How this list is built: these are l-theanine products ranked by real cost per dose across our whole l-theanine catalogue — not filtered or re-ordered by sleep. We don’t hold per-product evidence for a specific use, so we don’t pretend to rank for one. Products whose own label says they are for something else are left out.
The dose, the studies and what to watch for, in full: L-theanine: what it actually does, the dose, and the caffeine combo.
