As usual, I left my work undone today in favor of "researching" this stuff on internet. Oh, how many hours of my life this condition took away! Anyway, I found some short points on Gaba that can be useful, there are pretty much information on it at the web.
* It do not, in oral form, cross the blood brain barrier. Or at least most scientists think it do not. That means it will not affect the creation of Gaba in the brain, that potentially can inhibit the sympathetic tone. It is therefore useless for the purpose.
* Some claims has it, that Gaba can be carried across the blood brain barrier by "a carrier," Omega 3, B6, Niacin, L-theanin and others are mentioned. Some claims also has it that if you take large dose of Gaba, some of it will be able to penetrate the barrier.
* Always take Gaba on an empty stomach.
* Witnesses on internet ranging from "cured my anxiety," "helped my blushing," to "didn't do a **** for me."
I have already ordered the stuff, and will take it together with Omega 3 and Vitamin B6 for a couple of weeks, to see if it does anything. I have no high hopes though.
But, as we should remember, all bodies are different, and what might not work for one, can cure another. Then various results of ETS surgery is indeed a stable proof of how different our bodies are wired.
Also, I read that MS patients have a weak blood brain barrier, and benefit from Gaba right away. There are for sure other than MS patients that can have a weak blood brain barrier, and hence can benefit the same way.
There is indeed no doubt that the sympathetic tone would be inhibited, if the Gaba can be transported across the blood brain barrier.
For me, reading just one positive statement is enough to try a remedy. If it doesn't work, **** it. If it does, my life would be paradise!
