GABA

What is GABA?

GABA is a key neurotransmitter known for pumping the brakes on our nerve impulses whenever we’re placed in less-than-ideal, taxing situations.

A high level of GABA activity can help lower overstimulation and promote a feeling of calm under pressure.**

GABA receptors are also found in the hypothalamus, which is involved in sleep and emotional activity.
