I've been taking GABA prior to bed (with magnesium and melatonin) and have noticed an improvement in my sleep and overall mood. Improving my sleep was the foundation of my own health improvement plan, and I do believe I'm now starting to reap the benefits -- physically and mentally -- of deeper daily rest.
I've been reading more about GABA recently and found a few articles suggesting it's beneficial to be taken around workouts because of its impact on GH levels. Does anyone here do that?
I've also read conflicting information, from taking 3-5g anywhere from 30-60mins prior to workout, and taking it with protein post-workout. When do you take it and how much do you dose? I currently have 500mg veg capsules from NOW foods, and I've started taking an additional serving post workout with my protein shake. I'm just curious whether there is more information available about if this is better moved to before my session?
