Aminobutyric acid/GABA is a non-protein amino acid that functions as a neurotransmitter (a chemical that facilitates communication between neurons). Neurotransmitters are either "excitatory" (i.e. they stimulate the firing of a neuron) or "inhibitory" (i.e., they tend to suppress neuron firing). GABA, which is produced from glutamate, is an inhibitory neurotransmitter. In fact, it's the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain.
Function
1. Calm nerves, anti-anxiety. Medical scientists have shown that GABA is an inhibitory substance in the central nervous system, and 2. lowers blood pressure. GABA can act on the vascular movement center of the spinal cord, effectively promote vasodilation and achieve the purpose of lowering blood pressure.
3. Improve brain vitality. GABA can enter the brain's tricarboxylic acid cycle, promote brain cell metabolism, and also increase glucose phosphatase activity during glucose metabolism, increase acetylcholine production, dilate blood vessels to increase blood flow, and promote brain metabolism. Restore brain cell function.
4. The latest research shows that GABA also has functions such as preventing skin aging, eliminating body odor, improving lipid metabolism, preventing arteriosclerosis and effectively losing weight.
Application
1) as raw materials for the medicines, health products and cosmetics.
2) directly adding into the tea, beverages and milk products.
3) as the natural ingredients used in coffee, chocolate, apple juice, cocoa, yogurt, milk sugar, butter, toast, bread, instant noodles and other functional food and drinks.
