With over 40 years of research and development, the Sally T. brand has always strived for excellence in all aspects of wellness.
GABA (Gamma-aminobutyric acid) is a naturally occurring amino acid and has been known to balance brain chemistry. GABA is the most important inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. It acts like a brake during times of runaway stress.

Oral GABA supplementation can also act directly on the central nervous system in a peripheral aspect through the gut. There is a gut-brain relationship between nutrition and the gut microbiome and how the gut supports brain health and function. The gut and brain communicate through the nervous system, immune system, and hormones. GABA can work directly on the hypothalamus (emotional neuroendocrine control centre of the brain) and affect the central nervous system.

Taking L-Theanine simultaneously with GABA is often recommended for improved efficacy. L-Theanine is involved with GABA synthesis. L-Theanine passes through the blood brain barrier. L-Theanine is believed to support the brain and body in coping with stress and anxiety outside of its ability to up-regulate the production of GABA.

Suggested Uses:
GABA has been known to alleviate anxiety, fear, worry, panic attacks, and general feelings of being overwhelmed and stressed. Depression and insomnia which often co-occur with anxiety have also been helped. GABA has also been shown to be helpful in addressing sugar cravings and addictions. Either low GABA levels or decreased GABA function in the brain can be alleviated with supplementation to balance brain chemistry.

Some individuals tapering from benzodiazepines find using GABA and other nutrients helpful. This is a personalized response. Discuss this with your health professional before trying.

In some instances, the combination of GABA and 5-HTP (5-OH-Tryptophan) improved sleep duration more than the use of either of the two amino acids alone. Personalized application is needed.

Initially take 1 – 2 caps on retiring. If needed, use 1 to 3 times during the day.
