I take it you are talking about the american GNC site, cos i had a look on the UK site and couldn't find it. Does anyone know a UK site where i can get some?

What "effect" are you referring to? Is it a sedative kinda effect? Or worse, does it kick like pot??

It just calms you but doesn't take away from you energy.

Just got home with mine. Picked it up on the way home from the gym. Now to get this stomach empty so i can take it.

What would be good doses, before bed and in the morning for someone with my stats:

Age: 18
Weight: 130lbs
Height: 5'6"

Yes you read that right, I'm a little guy.. In one way, anyways.

EDIT:: Just found this:

http://www.bodybuildingforyou.com/supplements-reviews/gaba-information-effects.htm

Research shows that at least 2 grams of GABA should be taken for it to be effective. 5g is shown to be more effective, and the effectiveness of GABA is maxed out at 18 grams. There are studies done on GABA where it's administered either orally or intravenously. Taking GABA orally is not as effective as taking it intravenously; however it's more reflective of expected real world results, as most GABA supplements are designed to be taken orally. Despite this, GABA is effective even when taken orally.

Would you be able to place this under your tongue and have it dissolve there for quicker results as well as more of it getting to your system?

Most of hte sites I went through recommended 2 g/day, taken just before sleeping. I read somewhere that the best bet was to take 1g and hour before sleeping and another gram 2 hours after u've slept (waking you up with an alarm clock)! That's because the pituitary gland releases HGH just after falling asleep. So if you time your gaba dosage in that interval the blood level of HGH will add up! But then, I'm not that mad to wake up after 2 hrs!!

You really don't have to take it sub lingual. You will feel it very well at 2g orally. It probably tastes bad anyway. Believe me, it works fine as is.

Got mine yesterday and took some last night. It recommended a 5g dosage on the tub so that's what I took. After about 20mins my face, scalp and arms had a strange tingling sensation

8 isn't enough, can you really notice a difference in your body fat after taking GABA for such a short time? (I hope so cos' that's what I'm taking it for

)

My theory is that it will help me on my Penis Enlargement quest by way of increasing my NBP size (I currently have a pubic fat pad of 1 1/4"

).

I'm approx 35lbs overweight and have started training 4-5 times a week. So by losing this excess weight and fat pad, my dick should look a lot bigger! Oh...and I suppose it might help me live longer. lol.

8 isn't enough · Sep 23, 2003

Yes, my body fat has really went down in the short time I have used it. My fat pad hasn't changed a bit though. It might over time but it hasn't in the time I've used it so far.

SlamInTheLamb · Sep 23, 2003

8, are you doing any exercise as well?

8 isn't enough · Sep 23, 2003

Not really. I do some curls and bench maybe one day a week. Using GABA with excersise probably will excellerate gains as well as lower your fat much better than not doing much like me.

SlamInTheLamb · Sep 23, 2003

Lets hope so

C-Guy · Sep 23, 2003

Took the GABA last night and had the skin "flush" tingles. It was comparable to taking niacin for the flush anyways. What strength are you guys taking? Mine is 500mg per tablet.

8 isn't enough · Sep 23, 2003

Mine is 750mg per and I take 3 nightly and sometimes one in the morning.

I'm worried about the increased metabolism in a way. My metabolism isn't bad as such. With increased meta could there be muscle loss? Have you noticed muscle loss or thinning a tthe arms etc along with fat reduction?

8 isn't enough · Sep 23, 2003

None. Its not, in a classic sense, raising your metabolism. More, its using the fat to build muscle. This is how GH works. Its anabolic and not catabolic.

On the other hand I did read that GHB (which has a similar structure to GABA, missing one hydroxyl group) has been found to increase blood pressure....

Adrenaline, caffeine and speed are also very similar in molecular structure but act very differently inside the body.

I had a look at that site and will get some when my pay comes through.

Just 1 Q are they in pill form and if so how many mg/g in a pill?

just asking that cos looking at the site it looks like its in powder form.

Also, i'm going to start taking some tribulus and wanted to know if there are much side effects (mainly small balls as it deals with testosterone).

I'm going to take these, stick to a diet and i'm joining a gym in order to shift a lot of weight (esspesically the fat pad cos at the mo i have a negative FNBP length

)

ApostleInTriumph · Sep 23, 2003

One more Q for 8!
I know GABA has a sedative effect and might infact induce sleep. but the tingling sensation everyone reports. Are you able to fall asleep with that, or is it an excitory effect (like endorphins have an energising effect after exercise)? Thanks
