CLINICAL APPLICATIONS

• Promotes Muscle Relaxation
• Helps Alleviate Exercise-Related Muscle Pain
• Concentrated Blend of Traditional Botanicals for Muscle Support

OVERVIEW

GABAnol is a synergistic combination of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), glycine and established traditional botanicals, which serves as a quick response supplement for muscle relaxation. This unique blend of botanicals, amino acids, vitamins and minerals also work to quickly support muscular discomfort. While other therapies with a similar mechanism may cause dependency when used over time, the natural ingredients in GABAnol are non-habit forming and work quickly to ease muscle tension.

The combination of glycine and GABA act as inhibitory neurotransmitters, which help calm muscles and reduce the activity of the excitatory nervous system that can cause muscle spasms. Together with magnesium, B6 and select botanicals, the ingredients in GABAnol serve as an excellent alternative to valerian-based products. One capsule of GABAnol includes 250 mg GABA, 225 mg glycine, 200 mg cramp bark and 150 mg Dong quai.

Suggested Use:

1-2 capsules three times per day or as recommended by your health care professional

INGREDIENT BENEFITS

GABA and Glycine

Both GABA and glycine act as calmatives for nerve impulses and control muscle contractions. GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain and regulates other neurotransmissions to prevent overstimulation. Glycine is one of three amino acids needed for the synthesis of creatine, which supplies energy to nerve and muscle cells. Elevated amounts of glycine are found in the muscles, skin and other connective tissues. Glycine is also an inhibitory neurotransmitter, and works much like GABA.

Cramp Bark Powder

Cramp bark powder has long been used to alleviate smooth muscle discomfort. Studies have confirmed that cramp bark promotes a relaxant effect. Herbalists recommend cramp bark for discomfort of either a congestive or spasmodic nature.

Dong Quai Root Extract

A perennial botanical native to China and Japan, Dong quai is effective at easing post-exercise muscle soreness, and has long been used medicinally for smooth muscle tension. Dong quai has active ingredients, called coumarins, which dilate blood vessels, balance the central nervous system and increase blood flow.
