Ok

I really got alot of this powder! I have been ordering alot of supplements because I discovered ( to my astonishment) profound impact on me. I'm not really keen on full self disclosure even with a pseudonym, however, I will say that I am probably in an incredibly unique position to most people, and this situation lends itself to being very physiologically sensitive to these supplements. Almost frustrating in a way because other people don't "feel" the supplements the way I do, so trying to convince them that they will help is difficult. Threonine is one of the essential amino acids you must get from food. It is supposed to be restorative to the gut etc, but like every amino acid, it is much more complex than that. The crazy chemical combinations your body doeswith the substances you ingest are not so easy to pigeonhole. This one smells so much like maple syrup to me I thought that maple syrup (real stuff, sorry Butterworth's) must contain a high value of this particular amino and attempted to find out. However, this is quite challenging because the condition 'Maple Syrup Urine Disease' is an amino metabolism disorder, I believe of phenylalanine. In any case, this one is very chill when you take it on its own, as opposed to others which can cause a rapid heart rate and the like (for me). Aminos work very differeny in isolation than they do as a group. If we didn't have the corruption of food from the soil to the serving, there would be no market for aminos in isolation for therapeutic purposes. It's sad really. But I'm thankful I've discovered how badly I needed supplements. Just be cautious because you can overdo it, and the idea is to restore balance, not create imbalance with too much of one or the other. Really know your needs and it would be wise to consult a Naturopath or the like (for God's sake avoid allopathic care unless your leg has been crushed or something). Have tests performed by these people as an allopathic Dr. Will just chuck Big Pharma drugs at you indiscriminately. I haven't taken this much but it's good quality and my intestinal tract can use all the help it can get. Get informed. Allopathic medicine will not ask the right questions or perform the right tests. I'm completely horrified by it now that I know I could have been helped years ago. Unfortunately I was visiting allopathic doctors and could not be more appalled now at how incredibly harmful and unhelpful their practice can be. Really sad for so many people.

No smell or taste works great

Bought this thinking it was L-Theanine. How bogus!

I bought L-Threonine to adjust the proteinogenic amino acid profile in protein shakes used before and after exercise. In that context, It's pretty hard to tell any 'effect' from this, as it's an addition to the amount already in the products. It does give me satisfaction that I can tune amino acid profiles to suit. However, I did try some alone in the evenings, and I definitely slept well, not waking at all during the night. It's not like being knocked out, but rather a gentle, laid back effect that allows deeper sleep. I'd say it is at least, if not more, effective than melatonin in that way.Otherwise the product looks high quality, packaged well, and reasonably priced.

This significant impacted my sleep in a positive way. When I stopped taking it in another form, I couldn't understand why my sleep was of worse quality and my energy was lower until I realized this was missing. So great.

Great miricle product, good for collegen production and helps me have good solid sleep, if I use it occasionally

This in my morning coffee or tea at night keeps me focused
