Answer to Question 2

L-theanine is a variation of an amino acid that is found in green tea. It can cross the blood-brain barrier and help reduce the stress levels in an individual. The major concern would be that the levels of L-theanine could vary between tea preparations and a large amount of this L-form amino acid may have other effects in the central nervous system.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
