Nutrition Guide: GABA

Gamma Amino Butyric Acid, a non-essential amino acid, is claimed to decrease body fat levels while increasing lean muscle tissue.

This supplement functions by crossing the blood-brain barrier and acting as a pituitary stimulant thereby increasing the secretion of the Human Growth Hormone (HgH).

It also acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (decreases neuron activity).

It is believed that increased levels of HgH promote a decrease in body fat and an increase in muscle growth.

The recommended dosage is one or two capsules (200mg) with a meal twice daily.
