Description

Neurotransmitter Support for Anxiety and Insomnia

4-amino-3-phenylbutyric acid crosses the blood brain barrier and binds GABA-B receptors (1)
Taurine is a GABA-A agonist (2)
GABA is associated with mood and anxiousness (3)

Kavinace potentiates GABA which is one of the main inhibitory neurotransmitters. Research has shown that higher GABA levels may relieve anxiety and promote restful sleep.

Dr. Myatt’s Comment: I recommend this product to my patients who are low in GABA and my experience has shown me that it works incredibly well as a sleep aid and anti-anxiety formula for these people.

As with most nutritional supplements, do not use without physician supervision when pregnant or nursing.

Suggested Dose: 1-2 capsules at bedtime or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
Use only before sleep.
Use caution when combined with medications that have sedative properties.
