Product Description
DESCRIPTION: GABA Calm is a combination of L-Theanine and GABA
(gamma-aminobutyric acid), two naturally occurring
agents that have been shown to support positive mood,
relaxation, and relieve mental tension.
FUNCTIONS: According to statistics released by the National Institutes
of Mental Health, over 19 million Americans suffer from
an anxiety disorder. L-Theanine is a unique amino acid
found in green tea. Green tea has traditionally been used
for centuries to help promote relaxation. Relaxation can
be determined by measuring weak electric pulses on the
surface of the brain known as brain waves. Alpha waves
are associated with a state of relaxation without
drowsiness. In one study, 200mg of theanine generated
alpha waves in the occipital and parietal regions of the
brain. No adverse side effects were reported in the study.
Other studies have indicated that the intensity of alpha
waves generated is dose dependent upon the amount of
theanine administered, and that theanine can reach the
brain within 30 minutes after oral administration to
generate overall relaxation.
GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the
central nervous system, playing a central role in regulating
cell-to-cell communication. Healthy levels of GABA have
been associated with positive mood. Prescription drugs
such as Valium, Baclofen, Valproate and Neurontin work
by causing an increase of GABA production in the brain.
A 2006 study evaluated the effect or orally administered
GABA on relaxation and immunity during stress in
humans. The study demonstrated that GABA enhances
alpha wave production in the brain to promote relaxation
and moderate occasional stress. The conclusion of the
study suggested that GABA could work effectively as a
natural relaxant and its effects could be seen within one
hour of administration to induce relaxation and diminish
anxiety. Noted also in the study, GABA supported healthy
IgA levels in humans, suggesting that it may support
immune health during occasional stress conditions.
INDICATIONS: GABA Calm may be a useful dietary supplement for
individuals searching for relaxation and relief from mental
tension.
