    Gaba works within minutes and is very effective. I take a powder with some other vitamins like B1 and amino acids like L-Theanine. I also take Ashwaganda because of high levels of cortisol in the morning when waking up. The only issue I have with it is that it lowers my blood sugar levels and my blood pressure. I nearly passed out in the elevator going up today because of it. My blood pressure was around 117/71 today because of Ashwaganda.

      I've been doing L-theanine with Magnesium and having rock solid sleep since then. The combo helps improve REM sleep.

      @sourclam904 Před rokem

      @Jacob Stafford it works better for me in smaller dosages. I have it combined with other stuff in a capsule, so I'm not sure the MG. But yeah, higher dosages not good, but lower dose makes me relax a little bit.

    • @THEDOPEGAME
      @THEDOPEGAME Před 7 měsíci +1

      So initially ashwagandha worked GREAT for me, but as I continued to take it I noticed that I was becoming anxious after a dose. Then what I realized is that the calming effects kicked in AFTER the initial anxiety. Probably not worth the price of admission

    @DAMIAN_SVHETS Před 2 měsíci

    I watched it through a translator, I didn't understand one thing. Gabu can be taken on an empty stomach or with food. I don't get it with ashwagandha, is it better on an empty stomach?

      @@amirkaddour9608 I asked my doctor with the particular medication I am on if it would be safe and he did not seem to have a problem with it….it is a low dose gaba 125mg up to 3 times a day but scientific studies are lacking so if I were you I would start low and write daily how you feel so in a week or two you can reflect back to see if it’s actually helping you or causing harm or not doing anything

      ​@@1sableloveprobably erring on the safe side to avoid serotonin syndrome, but the chances of that happening is so low on supplemental gaba it's pretty much a moot point.

    @Straightdeal Před 5 měsíci

    I often wonder whether those people who comment on OTC medications, actually test and take the medication. I found Ashwaganda to have zero effect on stress/sleep, and I can compare it with a prescription stress medication. If have not tried the Gaba OTC meds.

    GABA does not penetrate the brain, that's the big problem. It's much better to use L-Theanin, NAC or taurin.
