Several confectionery products, primary chocolate based, are using GABA (Gamma amino butyric acid) as a key ingredient. The benefit of this for the product company is that they can capitalize on the present popularity of GABA and GABA supplements to promote sales, and the consumer benefits from getting an extra dose of GABA from the product. If consumers can find a GABA supplement in an everyday product such as a chocolate confectionery why do to the trouble of popping pills? Ezaki Glico has recently produced "GABA Super Bitter chocolates" which contains a significant 280 mg of GABA. The popular G-LAT - the chocolate drink with a difference - is another example of a high quality chocolate product that has a concentration GABA. For chocolate lovers with health concerns products like this are like heaven!
As it has been discovered with many other food ingredients, GABA also has some cosmetic benefits. Because one of GABA's properties is said to relax muscles, it is being promoted as a base ingredient for smoothing or reducing fine lines and wrinkles. One of the first cosmetic companies to capitalize on GABA was Mintel GNPD Cosmetic Research. In 2004 they introduced the Brandt Crease Release Rapid Wrinkle Reducer. This specially formulated GABA complex is said to work "synergistically" in conjunction with one's complexion to smooth over wrinkles, lines and signs of stress especially in area such as around the mouth and eyes with immediate results.
Supplement Products
GABA has frequently been used in other cosmetic and skin care products since then. Many cosmetic companies are releasing product promoting quick or immediate visible results in removing wrinkles, stress lines and general sign of wear and tear on the body. Some promote GABA cosmetic supplements as substitutes for getting a cosmetic injection. Freeze & Go Instant Smoother and Brightener is another example of a GABA based cosmetic product designed to be a wrinkle reducer. It is said to not only smooth wrinkles and fine lines, but also diminishes enlarged pores, rosacea as well as stretch marks.
It remains to be seen just how beneficial a GABA supplement can be. A lot of companies are no doubt taking advantage of the popularity of it for their own benefit, but for the consumer there doesn't seem to be any harm in trying it and capitalizing on its benefits. They are readily available and can be bought either online or at various health food stores. Some are more difficult to come by than others, being available primarily in Japan, while others are found easily online.

Ortho Molecular Pro Bono - 60 Packets Overview
A naturally efficacious single-serving packeted bone building and bone retention supplement, formulated for maximum results and easy-to-use convenience.Why These Natural Ingredients?Studies show that calcium and strontium compete for absorption when taken together, and thatstrontium is better absorbed when taken away from meals. We package Pro Bono into AM (before food)and PM packets to eliminate any competition between calcium and strontium for absorption, ensuringthe maximum bioavailability of both ingredients.StrontiumResearchers reporting in the New England Journal of Medicine found a 41% reduction in vertebral fracturesover 3 years when adding strontium to a stable calcium and vitamin D diet regimen. Pro Bono provides multipleingredient sources for calcium to maximize uptake, and a therapeutically dosed 1,000 mg of strontium.Vitamin KVitamin K is required for the synthesis of osteocalcin, a bone protein integral for bone formation. Osteocalcinprovides the structure and order to bone tissue; without it, bones would be fragile and easily broken. In humans,vitamin K levels fall during recovery from a fracture evidencing that this nutrient is actually drawn from the rest ofthe body to the site of the fracture. Vitamin K2, menaquinones, are produced naturally by bacteria unlike its morepopular cousin vitamin K1 which is found in greater concentrations in green leafy vegetables.Vitamin DVitamin D is known to be responsible for day-to-day maintenance of calcium and mineral homeostasis.Further, vitamin D is proven to support healthy bone density, an important component of strong bones.Many researchers point to an unrecognized epidemic of vitamin D deficiency among older Americans,suggesting that of those 200,000+ persons who suffer hip fractures each year, many are vitamin Ddeficient.SAVE NOW on the special offers below!
