GABA Capsules | Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid

About GABA CapsulesGABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is the brain’s primary inhibitory neurotransmitter, naturally produced from glutamate by the enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase. Each capsule delivers 700mg of pure GABA to support relaxation, gastrointestinal comfort, and healthy metabolic function through its action on GABA receptors throughout the body.
Our GABA Story
We avoided offering GABA supplements for sleep for years due to the ongoing debate about blood-brain barrier penetration. The supplement community was split: one side praised its relaxing effects while the other dismissed it as placebo since GABA supposedly couldn’t reach the brain. We remained skeptical until a large sample arrived at our facility and we decided to conduct our own thorough testing.
Our testing revealed something fascinating. While GABA crosses the blood-brain barrier in small amounts at higher doses, its most pronounced effects actually originate in the gastrointestinal tract first. The gut is densely populated with GABA-B receptors that control smooth muscle tone, gastric acid secretion, and support a healthy inflammatory response. These peripheral effects occur without needing to cross the blood-brain barrier at all. GABA also converts to metabolites like succinic semialdehyde and gamma-hydroxybutyric acid that can reach the brain, where they reform into GABA. The enteric nervous system in our gut communicates directly with the central nervous system via the vagus nerve, allowing gut-based GABA activity to influence stress response and relaxation.Benefits
Supports Healthy Sleep Onset: GABA promotes physical relaxation that prepares the body for restful sleep, with users experiencing improved sleep quality and easier transitions into deep sleep phases.
Supports a Healthy Stress Response: The calming effects begin in the gastrointestinal tract through GABAB receptor activation, creating a cascade of relaxation that helps support the body’s response to daily stressors.
