Low levels and decreased GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) function in the brain are associated with anxiety, depression, insomnia, and epilepsy.
GABA is a major neurotransmitter (brain chemical) widely distributed throughout the central nervous system. It functions as a “brake” on our neural circuits during stress, relaxes the muscles, slows the heart rate and breathing, and reduces anxiety, tension, and insomnia.
Features
Combines GABA with the neurotransmitter Glutamic Acid and P-5-P (Pyridoxal-5-phosphate) - the natural and biologically active form of Vitamin B6 - for enhanced calm and relaxation:
- 100% vegan non-GMO formula
- Enhanced support with glutamic acid and P-5-P
- Glutamic acid (glutamate) is a neurotransmitter essential for cognitive function, learning and memory
- Pyridoxal-5-phosphate restores the activity of the brain glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) which is the enzyme necessary for the conversion of glutamate into GABA
Benefits
- Helps to maintain brain neurotransmitter function
- Helps to improve relaxation and enhance sleep
- Helps reduce anxiety, tension and insomnia
- Great for using while practicing yoga
Did you know
GABA is also said to increase the level of alpha waves in the brain which can put you in a state of enhanced focus and “mental flow”.

Cognitive Health
Our brain makes us who we are. Cognition, the capacity to focus, memorize, or process information, and nervous system transmission capacity all deteriorate due to disease or with age. Provita's continuously evolving Cognitive Health series, curated from the highest quality sources, is specially formulated to help the brain and nervous system functions.
