L-Theanine (scientific name: N-ethyl-γ-L-glutamine) is a natural non-protein amino acid first isolated from green tea in 1949 [1]. It mainly exists in plants of the Camellia family, with the highest concentration found in green tea (accounting for 1%–2% of tea dry weight), and is one of the key components responsible for the fresh and savory taste of tea. Since the human body cannot synthesize it naturally, it must be obtained through diet or supplementation. L-Theanine helps regulate neurotransmitter activity in the brain, promoting a state of “relaxation without drowsiness and focus without anxiety,” and is therefore known as a “natural brain-calming ingredient.”

Magnesium L-threonate (MgT) is an organic magnesium salt formed by combining magnesium with L-threonic acid, a metabolite of vitamin C, and represents a new generation of magnesium supplements [2]. Unlike conventional magnesium supplements such as magnesium oxide and magnesium citrate, which primarily act in the gastrointestinal tract and have limited ability to cross the Blood–brain barrier, MgT contains L-threonic acid, a naturally occurring metabolite involved in brain metabolism that serves as an effective carrier to facilitate the transport of magnesium into the brain. By increasing magnesium levels in the brain—an essential mineral for maintaining neuronal activity and regulating brain signaling [8]—MgT is widely recognized as a targeted magnesium supplement for cognitive health.

Ginkgo Biloba Extract (GBE) is a mixture of bioactive compounds extracted and purified from the dried leaves of Ginkgo biloba. Its principal active components are flavone glycosides and terpene lactones [1]. Among them, Ginkgolide B has been widely studied for its role in improving neurodegenerative disorders. As a “living fossil” plant that has survived for more than 200 million years, Ginkgo biloba has a long history of medicinal use. Modern research confirms that GBE is a high-value natural ingredient for improving cerebral blood circulation and supporting brain function.
