Supplement Direct GABA

This unique amino acid supplement actually has two very different, yet impressive functions. As an amino acid that our brain produces naturally, GABA inhibits "over-stimulations" that often lead to stress, irritability and sleep deprivation. Appropriately knick-named "the brain's natural calming-agent", GABA allows nerve cells to properly communicate with one another, and may help promote relaxation and ease nervous tensions naturally. It doesn't cause drowsiness, but rather helps the body fall asleep naturally. From an athletic perspective, GABA has been shown to support healthy function of the anterior pituitary gland, which in turn helps release higher levels of human growth hormone (HGH). This makes GABA a diverse supplement that can be easily incorporated into practically any healthy or athletic lifestyle.

GABA (gamma aminobutyric acid) is a non-essential amino acid found mainly in the human brain and eyes. It is considered an inhibitory neurotransmitter, which means it regulates brain and nerve cell activity by inhibiting the number of neurons firing in the brain. GABA is referred to as the "brain's natural calming agent". By inhibiting over-stimulation of the brain, GABA may help promote relaxation and ease nervous tension.* Supplement Direct provides only the naturally occurring L-form as found in food and in the body.
