Green Tea For Insomnia



Green tea is known for its ability to relax and soothe the nerves. The substance in green tea that is responsible for this calming effect is an amino acid called Theanine. Theanine is natural muscle relaxant and it has been used for centuries to promote good sleeping habits.


If you intend to use green tea for relaxation or insomnia, then keep in mind that ordinary green tea contains caffeine.  You can buy green tea that has been decaffeinated or you can choose green tea that has been harvested later in the growing season (in late summer or autumn). The later in the year the green tea type is harvested the less caffeine it contains so the key is to buy the late harvested stuff.
