What Is GABA?

GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is an amino acid that acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain. It helps regulate nerve excitability, promoting a balanced state of brain activity that may support relaxation and ease nervous tension. NOW Foods provides the naturally occurring L-isomer of GABA, identical to the form found in food and the body, in a convenient powder format.

How to Use GABA Powder

The recommended serving is 1/4 level teaspoon (approx. 1 g) taken 2 to 3 times daily, preferably on an empty stomach. Stir the powder into water or your favourite beverage; it mixes easily with a neutral taste. Begin with a lower dose to assess tolerance. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any medications, consult a health-care practitioner before use.
