NFH GABA-T SAP, 60 Capsules

NFH GABA-T SAP pairs GABA (300 mg) with L-theanine (150 mg) in a 2:1 ratio — two calming compounds that work through different but complementary pathways.

How GABA and L-theanine work together

GABA is the body's most abundant inhibitory neurotransmitter, dampening overexcitation in the nervous system and supporting relaxation and sleep, though how much orally supplemented GABA crosses the blood-brain barrier is still debated in the research. L-theanine, by contrast, reliably crosses the blood-brain barrier and increases alpha brain wave activity — the state associated with calm, relaxed alertness — while also helping curb cortisol response and stress-related carb cravings.

Often chosen by

• Anyone managing everyday stress and looking for calm without sedation
• People supporting healthy sleep onset
• Those wanting a non-drowsy daytime calming option

Format and exclusions

60 vegetable capsules per bottle, 1 capsule daily. Non-GMO, and made without gluten, dairy, soy, or artificial additives.

Before you start

Check with a healthcare practitioner before combining with sedatives, anti-anxiety medication, or blood pressure medication, since GABA and L-theanine can have additive calming or blood-pressure-lowering effects. Store in a cool, dry place, and keep out of reach of children.
