What exactly is gamma-aminobutyric acid?

July 01, 2024

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), also known as aminocitric acid and piperidinic acid. It is a four-carbon, non-protein amino acid, that is, an amino acid that is not required in protein synthesis. It is widely found in vertebrates, plants, and microorganisms, and in humans it is an important neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, mainly in the brain and spinal cord, and plays an important role in the human cerebral cortex, hippocampus, thalamus, basal ganglia, and cerebellum. As an important inhibitory neurotransmitter, GABA has a regulatory effect on a variety of functions of the body, one of the most important and major function is to be able to make people "calm". Japan has done a lot of research on γ-aminobutyric acid, and clinical trials have observed that it can increase α brain waves and decrease β brain waves, and the most obvious physical sensation is that it is more relaxing before going to bed, and the quality of sleep has been improved. It is important to note here that it needs to be distinguished from γ-hydroxybutyric acid, which, although differing by only one word, is a nootropic drug, recognised as a drug in many countries and banned in many regions. It is classified as a Class I psychotropic substance in the Catalogue of Psychotropic Substances of the People's Republic of China (2007 edition) and is subject to strict control.L-amino acids,L-amino acids from plants,Plant extracts.
