Nutritional supplements for weight loss

Millions of Americans want to lose weight -- to improve health, live longer, feel better, and be more attractive. However, sticking to a diet is difficult, so many seek help from several kinds of dietary supplements.

Does GABA really work to help lose weight?

We have never heard of anyone taking GABA to lose weight and there is no evidence in the scientific literature for doing so.

Some studies do show some correlation between certain weight loss factors and GABA neurotransmitter status. However, ingested GABA has very little effect, if any, on GABA neurotransmitter status and therefore cannot be expected to be a useful aid for losing weight.
