GABA

[[vi...]]

I've never tried this before, my fiancé got me the GNC 750mg GABA capsules.

 

Anything I should worry about? I want to try it for sleep.

It's very poorly transported across the blood/brain barrier, so it may not do much for you.  That's probably a good thing.  I imagine it would be abused if it had much of an effect when taken orally.  Personally, I tried to avoid strong GABAgeric foods/supplements during my withdrawal.

Thank you for the response.

I think I'll just stick with my omega 3's.

 

And vit c every other day.

I know one of my friends tried it and reacted badly. I would say start off with a really small dose to see how it goes. As an aside I found that broccoli stalks reduce the amount of glutamate that is running rapid in our bodies right now as a result of our gaba being lowered. Just thought I would mention it.

Hope you are doing well

They it's not the gaba that's missing. Its gabareceptors not working!

Yes gaba receptors being down for the count is what I meant.

It is not glutameate. When your GABA receptors are messed up they surge up and down your muscles tracts.

I need to find the article I read regarding this again. Will post it here when I do.

taking gaba only delays healing.  although i agree that it does not cross the blood brain barrier.  there is a form - pharma gaba that does.  but at the end of the day - if you are putting gaba into your system - the body will not start to rebuild the receptors ..... that is what makes this such a long process..... there is no way to short cut it

Here is one of the articles I had read:

That's why I had suggested the broccoli stalks to help calm the effects of the of glutamate that we are more susceptible too. My mind is foggy and in trying my best to be of some help with what I've read.
