GABA

Postby Mike on Sat Aug 02, 2008 10:18 am

Anyone whos used this care to share some wisdom? Took 1 gram (1/2 tsp) last night. Didnt sleep too well. Kept waking up. Then woke up at 9.45 am and didnt feel like I'd rested at all. Shall I take more? Anyone know how much you can take before it becomes toxic?

I've done 5g without any problems. I'm sure Hugh has been to 10g without any worries either.

Absolute minimum of 3g is needed, preferably 5-10g but you can go as high as 20g. Also, make sure you take on an empty stomach and not at the same time as anything insulinic as it severely limits the effect. If you do want to take some food also before bed, take the GABA first and wait around 20 mins for the tingling to kick in and let that go for a further 10-15 before eating a small snack. Seems to work fine that way but not if you eat at the same time or before.

I use 3g, next night 6g and then 9g and then take a few days off, rinse and repeat. The effects of GABA don't work if you use it too often.

I used to do 5g pre workout a long time ago when it was off the shelf.

Not sure if it made much difference but didn't get the associated sides.
