GABA 500 mg, provided by Douglas Laboratories,
supplies 500 mg of gamma amino butyric acid per each capsule. 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. In the body, 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. Adults take 1 capsule daily with meals or as
directed by physician. No adverse side effects reported. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct
light. Keep out of reach of children. Ebert MH, Schmidt DE, Thompson T et al: Elevated plasma
