Taking GABA to increase deep sleep can promote many positive changes in the body that are beneficial for bodybuilders and athletes. Some research shows increases in human growth hormone while using GABA for bodybuilding. GABA is used popularly by many strength training athletes for bodybuilding purposes including developing more lean muscle mass, decreasing fat stores, and naturally obtaining deep sleep.
While technically an amino acid, GABA primarily acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter throughout the brain and nervous system. This means that GABA actively blocks certain types of neural activity – easing nerve tension and playing a significant role in both electrical and hormonal regulation throughout your body.*
While produced naturally by our bodies, supplementing with GABA has been shown to have both direct and indirect effects on how our muscles recover from exercise, increase in size, and grow stronger.*
By inhibiting certain types of neural communication in the brain, studies have shown that GABA may reduce anxiety while producing a sense of calm and relaxation. As a 100% naturally ingredient, GABA has even been recommended by some in the medical profession as a non-habit forming sleep aid – perfect for those with insomnia or for athletes seeking to maximize the speed and effectiveness of their recovery after an intense workout.*
