GABA Increases GH by 400%
Did You Know gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), is a unique amino acid with an array of benefits. It does, however, play other important roles in the human body, including the regulation of muscle tone and neurotransmitters. GABA, being the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, is particularly useful for promoting a sense of calming and anxiety relief. It is also commonly used to support muscle growth and has been shown effective in treating PMS and ADHD among other conditions.
One 2008 study published in Medical Science Sports Exercise found that 3 grams of GABA supplementation increased peak Growth hormone levels by about four hundred percent when consumed during and after training sessions. These increased levels have huge implications since growth hormone is a chief factor in new muscle creation. While testosterone can increase muscle mass by adding size to existing muscle cells, only growth hormone can produce new muscle cells. By supplementing GABA after training, you are creating optimal conditions in the body for new muscle creation.
