Aminobutyric Acid

Other names: gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA, gamma-aminobutyric acid

Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)


Gamma-aminobutyric acid, also known as GABA or Aminobutyric Acid, is an important substance found in our bodies. It represents the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system of mammals, including humans. This means that it has a key role in regulating neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system. It negatively affects, as it suppresses, the output of nerve cells, resulting in a more relaxed state of the body and also allowing the body to rest naturally.

Aminobutyric Acid, in addition to its use in the human body, is also used extensively in various types of products. It is often used in the food industry as a food additive which is supposed to regulate the taste and consistency of products. It is also popular in the cosmetic industry where this acid is mainly used as an ingredient in skin care products. Due to its remarkable properties, GABA is included in a number of creams, masks and serums where it contributes to maintaining smooth and supple skin. In addition, it is also frequently used in the pharmaceutical industry, especially for the production of drugs for insomnia, anxiety and other nervous system-related disorders. As a dietary supplement, it is popular with athletes who use it to increase muscle mass and improve performance. It is important to stress that although this substance has many positive effects, its excessive use can lead to undesirable side effects.
