GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) has become extremely popular in Japan as a functional food and beverage ingredient and is expected to achieve mainstream popularity in the U.S. PharmaGABA is the natural form of GABA, a key neurotransmitter in the regulation of proper brain functionality. In Japan, sales of GABA-infused food and beverages increased more than five-fold between 2004 and 2006, with 2006 sales reaching approximately $122 million.

“There is a lot of great science to support the effectiveness of PharmaGABA,” said Dr. Michael Murray, a leading expert on natural medicine. “PharmaGABA has been shown to counteract the effects of stress on both the mind and body. It increases the production of alpha waves in the brain as well as reduces biological markers of stress like cortisol levels. The benefits of PharmaGABA’s anti-stress effects are quite apparent in that it induces feelings of calmness and clarity, creating increased focus on the task at hand, which is very unique.”
