Ah yes, the placebo section. Like magic, the more it costs, the better it works.
actually like one I've tried. bought some caps off amazon based on ingredients.
L-theanine and GABA is good for my anxiety. placebo or not. have to read labels/fine print. They are asking about $20/jar at Target
That's good, it might contribute to why I feel more mentally balanced when I stick to a green tea and high vegetable diet since that's apparently a rich source of l-theanine and GABA. It's hard to separate from the other benefits.
I don't like our culture of having a magic pill for everything, when there are simpler (less processed, less packaging, much cheaper) things to try first that promote better health overall. But green tea, sweet potatoes and oily fish aren't sexy marketing propositions that can be marked up x percent.
