What is GABA?
GABA, or gamma-aminobutyric acid, is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter of the mammalian central nervous system, discovered in 1950 by American researchers Eugene Roberts and Sam Frankel. It acts as a natural brake on nerve signals, helping balance excitation and inhibition in the brain — a mechanism central to calm, relaxation and emotional balance. At recommended doses, GABA does not cause daytime drowsiness.
The role of vitamin B6
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is a water-soluble vitamin involved in over 100 enzymatic reactions. It contributes to normal nervous system function, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal homocysteine metabolism and normal immune function. Present here at 2 mg per capsule (143% NRV), it acts as a cofactor in neurotransmitter synthesis, complementing GABA’s role.
