Description
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric-acid) is an amino acid that functions as a neurotransmitter in the brain. GABA is synthesized in the brain from another amino acid, glutamate, and functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter - meaning that it blocks nerve impulses. GABA is concentrated in the hypothalamus region of the brain and is known to play a role in the overall functioning of the pituitary gland - which regulates growth hormone synthesis, sleep cycles, and body temperature. Each capsule (60 total) contains 500 mg of GABA.
