GABA is a neurotransmitter (brain hormone) that helps regulate stress levels. Low levels of GABA have been linked to mood disorders and chronic pain. L-Theanine is an amino acid that's been shown to improve sleep, help reduce anxiety & stress and boost mental clarity. (Cleveland Clinic) WHY GABA + L-THEANINE FOR SLEEP? Studies showed that this combo could potentially incease sleep duration and REM cycle of sleep. (Pub Med 2019) Your body doesn't produce a lot of GABA so it's important to supplement for relaxation & a healthy sleep. Supplements have been shows to be better at breaking through the blood -brain barrier than food sources.
