Gamma Aminobutyric Acid GABA Powder 99%

What is Gamma Aminobutyric Acid GABA Powder?

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a natural active ingredient that is widely distributed in plants and animals. It is an important inhibitory neurotransmitter, first obtained in 1950 from the mammalian brain. In animals, GABA is found almost exclusively in nerve tissue. Medical doctors have shown that GABA is an inhibitory transmitter in the central nervous system and is one of the most important neurotransmitters in brain tissue. Its role is to reduce neuronal activity and prevent nerve cells from overheating, GABA binds to and activates anxiolytic brain receptors, which then act in concert with many other substances to prevent anxiety-related messages from reaching the brain's instruction centers.

Benefits:

Regulation of Blood Pressure

GABA, as an important inhibitory transmitter in the brain, has an important role in regulating cardiovascular activity in mammals. In a large number of animal experiments, GABA can reduce blood pressure and have a bradycardia effect, GABA can effectively promote vasodilatation, increase blood flow, increase the supply of oxygen, and promote metabolism, to reduce blood pressure. Hypertensive patients often have reduced renal function, and GABA has a renal function activation effect. Due to the activation of the diuretic effect, it can prompt the excess salt to be excreted from the urine, so that the blood pressure can be lowered.

Cough Suppression

In addition to its role as a transmitter, GABA acts as a modulator of autonomic nervous system function and, in non-neural tissues, as a hormone or trophic factor. More and more studies have shown that GABA has an important role in the respiratory system. It is a modulator of cholinergic parasympathetic nerves and tachykinin-containing sensory nerves and is involved in the regulation of allergic responses in the airway, and can inhibit nerve-induced cholinergic and tachykinin-mediated contraction of airway smooth muscle, microvascular leakage, and other problems, with a strong analgesic effect.

Improvement of Sleep

GABA synthetic neurons are distributed in the nuclei of the brainstem and mesencephalon and projection neurons and play an inhibitory role in cerebral cortical projections. Li Shaodan et al. explored the changes in neurotransmitter activity in the brain of people with subfertile insomnia and concluded that subfertile insomnia is mainly due to abnormal GABA and Glu activity. Noriko Horie et al. showed that the GABA ingestion group fell asleep more easily and had a higher degree of sleepiness compared to the control group.

Effects on Reproduction

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) can participate in the regulation of anterior pituitary hormone secretion at the level of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, thus indirectly affecting the function of ovaries and fallopian tubes in the female population.GABA also exists in gonads and epigynous organs of the male population and has a close relationship with spermatozoa motility and steroid hormone production. The presence of GABA receptors on the surface of sperm membranes suggests that GABA has a relationship with sperm function.GABA induces acrosome reaction (AR) in human fertile spermatozoa, which increases significantly with the process of spermatogenesis, and there is a clear quantitative relationship between GABA and spermatozoa. Some studies have suggested that to improve the success rate of artificial insemination, it is necessary to obtain high-quality spermatozoa in vitro, and GABA can be used as an additive component.

Promote Growth Hormone Secretion

Growth hormone is one of the important hormones that stimulate height growth, and γ-aminobutyric acid is an important inhibitory neurotransmitter that promotes the release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland, which can, to a certain extent, play a role in promoting height growth in children who have an abnormal pituitary gland function and an abnormal secretion of growth hormone that leads to a shorter stature.

Applications:

In the Food Field:

With in-depth research, the physiological functions of GABA have been continuously elucidated, and it has been developed into a new type of functional factor, which has been widely used in the pharmaceutical, food and health care, and agricultural industries. Currently, the food safety of GABA has been widely recognized by countries including the United States and Japan. China approved γ-aminobutyric acid as a new resource food in 2009 (Ministry of Health Announcement No. 12 of 2009), and it can be added to a variety of foods such as beverages and cocoa products.

For Health Products:

In the United States, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is used as a drug and approved by the FDA as a recognized safe food. As a dietary supplement, it is usually marketed in capsules and oral tablets. Some companies also produce functional foods containing GABA, which are claimed to improve women's sleep and are superior to melatonin-containing foods. It has been reported that gamma-aminobutyric acid has recently been approved by the United States FDA to be included as one of the complementary medications to improve migraine headaches in people.

In the Agriculture Field:

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) has been gradually applied to regulate plant growth, especially under adverse conditions. In plants, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) assumes the dual roles of metabolic substance and signaling substance and is involved in pH regulation, energy substance regulation of C/N balance, and defense system regulation in plants.GABA improves plant resistance under adversity and can promote reproductive growth and nutrient growth in plants.
