Alpha GABA PM
The Science
Alpha GABA PM by NeuroScience Inc. is a researched blend of botanicals with 400 mg of L-theanine shown to induce calming brain waves and naturally improve sleep during times of stress. GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. GABA is important for calm and sleep.
Biomarkers
Neurotransmitter:
- GABA
- Glutamate
- Serotonin
Hormone:
- Melatonin
High-dose L-theanine as a new approach
Glutamate
Alpha brain waves are naturally generated when an individual is calm and relaxed
- In a placebo-controlled study, impactful amounts of L-theanine were shown to induce the generation of alpha brain waves in groups both with and without stress.
- Melatonin has been shown to rapidly increase alpha brain waves.
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, L-theanine intake led to significantly reduced stress
- L-theanine binds to receptors, blocking the attachment of glutamate, and at doses of 250 mg or more, lowers glutamate levels.
Alpha GABA PM contains 400 mg of L-theanine and 3 mg of melatonin per serving to effectively calm the mind for sleep.
Proven sleep botanicals
In a randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled, 30 day study, valerian and lemon balm extracts together significantly improved quality of sleep as measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
- Alpha GABA PM contains a blend of botanical extracts identical to the above study to naturally improve quality of sleep.
A combination of valerian root and lemon balm was shown to significantly increase brain concentrations of GABA in vivo.
- Proprietary extracting technique of whole lemon balm leaf provides improved mechanism capability.
- Valerian and lemon balm are naturally GABAergic botanicals.
This product contains proprietary whole lemon balm leaf extract and micro-encapsulated valerian root to improve onset and quality of sleep.

Though I don’t typically believe in 5 star ratings, these products certainly deserve at least 4.5 stars! I have personally used them for over 12 years and absolutely love them! HPA axis Neuro/Endo testing has become a mainstay in establishing baseline neurotransmitter and hormone values while enabling our health coaches to implement neurotransmitter modulation protocols for all of our clients. I highly recommend taking your health and wellness to the next level and incorporating testing into your program.
