Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter‚ or chemical‚ in your central nervous system. GABA is necessary in order for you to feel calm and relaxed. In addition‚ it can promote restful sleep and an overall positive mood. Many anti-anxiety medications target GABA receptors‚ as do the most effective sleep medications available today. Recent studies have found that GABA promotes the production of alpha waves in your brain‚ which are the brain waves that are associated with relaxation and reduced stress.When stress and mental strain go untreated‚ they can lead to a number of mental and physical disorders. Disorders of GABA functioning have been associated with anxiety and insomnia‚ as well as less severe problems like daily irritability. Over time‚ high anxiety and lack of sleep have been found to be associated with obesity and being overweight‚ as well as cardiovascular problems. Immune system functioning is disrupted by high stress levels‚ and a recent study found that healthy GABA levels lead increased antibody levels‚ allowing for more protection against illnesses.
