GABA 750mg by NOW Foods
Are you looking for pure GABA, without any added vitamins or herbs? Then this is the NOW Foods variant you are looking for. Each plant-based capsule contains 750mg of gamma-aminobutyric acid, and nothing else but the capsule itself, silicon dioxide, and a little plant-based magnesium stearate. The bottle is available with 100 or 200 capsules. With one capsule per day, you have a 100 or 200-day supply.
What GABA is and where it is found
GABA stands for gamma-aminobutyric acid. It is a small amino acid that your body does not use to build proteins, but as a messenger between nerve cells. Your body produces GABA itself from glutamate, with the help of an enzyme that uses vitamin B6 as a cofactor. GABA is also found in food, especially in fermented products such as kimchi, miso, and tempeh, and in sprouted grains. What many people do not know: plants also produce GABA. In tomatoes, for example, the content increases significantly during ripening, and in Japan, there are even tomato varieties grown with extra GABA.
750mg per capsule
Each capsule contains 750mg of GABA. There are no approved EU health claims for GABA. NOW recommends taking the capsule on an empty stomach, with juice or water, so that GABA does not have to compete with other amino acids from your meal.
Because it does not contain vitamin B6, this GABA 750mg is easy to combine if you already use a multivitamin or B-complex. No double vitamins, so you keep control over what you combine. The capsules are made of cellulose and are not produced with yeast, gluten, soy, milk, or egg.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much GABA 750mg do you take per day?
NOW recommends one capsule, once or twice a day as needed. That is 750 to 1500mg GABA per day. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
Can you combine GABA with other supplements?
This capsule contains only GABA, with no added vitamins. If you take medication, especially substances that affect your nervous system such as sleeping pills or antidepressants, consult your doctor first.
Why can't anything be said about how GABA works?
Because there is no approved health claim for GABA in the European database. That is why we only describe what is in the product and how to use it. If you have specific questions, our customer service team will be happy to help.
What is the difference between GABA-A and GABA-B receptors?
GABA-A receptors are channels that open directly when GABA binds to them, allowing chloride to flow into the cell. This happens within milliseconds. GABA-B receptors work more slowly, via signaling cascades inside the cell. Both make the nerve cell less likely to fire.
GABA 750mg or GABA 500mg with vitamin B6?
That depends on what you already take. The 750mg variant contains only GABA, but more per capsule. The 500mg variant also contains 2mg of vitamin B6. If you already take a B-complex, pure GABA is often the logical choice.
