GABA in behavioral Performance
11/15/2023

GABA is the main inhibitory neurochemical in the human brain. Evidence from both animal and human studies indicates that individual variations in GABA are associated with behavioral performance - what does this mean? In a nutshell, more GABA = better performance...

How do we leverage this to eliminate brain fog? Read on and find out! Our bestselling Chaos Calmer Cream uses GABA, L-theanine, and magnesium to help bring on focus, zen, and overall chilled out energy, and those three key ingredients were picked for a reason. Gamma aminobutyric acid, commonly known as GABA, is an amino acid and the main inhibitory neurotransmitter present in the brain. GABA has multiple functions in the central as well as peripheral (rest of the body) nervous system. Many GABA functions are closely related to mood and emotions. It is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that acts as a brake to excitatory neurotransmitters; so, when it is abnormally low, this can lead to anxiety, panic disorders, attention deficit and depression. It is widely distributed in the brain and plays a major role in reducing neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system. High levels of GABA can accelerate heart rate and cause difficulties breathing, daytime drowsiness and non-restorative sleep. This was a comprehensive review of numerous studies that examined the interrelated role of GABA and behavioral function; they looked at general cognitive ability, executive functions (working memory, response inhibition, conflict resolution, decision making, speech function), and associative learning. Overall, the research suggests that GABA levels play a role in mental flexibility and acuity, depending on where they are in the range, with low levels being associated with negative outcomes.
