Not PHARMA GABA, good GABA nonetheless
DISCLAIMER: Although I am a former practicing dr of naturopathy, nothing in this review is to be taken as medical advice in any way. Always check with your doctor before taking any medication or supplements. That being said, I give it a good rating for the GABA itself; however, it is NOT Pharma Gaba as advertised. If you are not familiar, there are basically 3 types of OTC GABA. One is what you have here, which is your "garden variety" GABA, as i like to call it, then you have PHARMA GABA, which is pretty much in it's liposomel form. Then, there is GABA with a phenyl ring molecularly attached, making what is commonly known as P H E N I B U T. That version is a horse of another color. It is EXTREMELY potent and borderlines being a full blown benzodiazepine developed in Russia. Only THREE DAYS of regular usage can cause one to suffer from withdrawals. Stay away from it. But back to this product, although it doesn't cross the blood brain barrier, we still have GABA receptors in our gut. In theory, that should be enough to bind to in order to signal the brain that we have more GABA in our system, thus the benefits we desire may take place. In my personal experience with GABA over the last 25 years, I have found that it tends to work better if taken sublingually under the tongue before swallowing. I would never use more than 1 to 2 grams at a time, as you may experience a sudden breathless feeling when it hits your system. Basically harmless, but you won't like it and you don't need that much anyway. We used it for increasing HGH naturally in the body to reduce fat during the cutting cycle in bodybuilding. Plus, it can help induce sleep. Ok, maybe a bit too much info but remember, don't take this as advice. Do your own research and talk to your doctor first. God bless.
