GABA (gamma aminobutyric acid) is an amino acid derivative that functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter of the central nervous system. It is an anti-stress, anti-anxiety, calming and relaxing nutrient. It has been used clinically for depressed sex drive, prostate problems, and as a non-addictive tranquilizer substitute.

GABA is referred to as the "brain's natural calming agent." Studies have shown that GABA increases the body's sleeping cycle and patients reported much more vivid dreams and a good night's sleep.
