[@cynthiaselene1496]

You are an angel for making this video!!!Made a complex process easy to understand :-)

[@KylesBodyandBraintips]

Love your video on GABA its very important that people get the fight amount to get calm (: for real !!

[@p1dru2art]

This looks to be a brilliant group of videos

[@netdoc.todaylimited9467]

Excellent presentation on an important topic.

[@tracyballard3180]

Thank you. I just started taking Prozac. I have stress gummies with L-thiamine, GABA and lemon balm. Is it ok to continue taking them both?🤷🏽‍♀️

[@Passion535]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video cause I love learning how to improve my life instead of just sitting around and complaining about it! BUT, I got a little confuses with the Progesterone part? Isn't Progesterone a "Woman's Hormone"?? If I'm a man,(and I am), should I use progesterone ??

[@HairGlitter]

Wow. Excellent information. Thankyou

[@senseisoto5013]

Hello thanks for the great information. What is the name again of the urinalysis Please??

[@BarryMann]

I could not quite catch the name of the test either.

[@islandgirl2355]

Organic Acid Urine Analysis about 5:20.

[@catherinepakenham-walsh234]

​@islandgirl2355 hi thanks for that...what do you mean 5-20 😮

[@senseisoto5013]

​@@catherinepakenham-walsh234 in the 5 min and 20 second is the name of the test.

[@porchlights2268]

This was incredibally informative!! Thank you!! My question is what do Benzodiazepines do to this cycle and how to heal from it?

[@vidyas.4531]

1. How does the GABAB Receptor work in contrast to the GABAA Receptor? 2. What is the difference between an Agonist and a Positive Modulator?

[@ALEXGIBSONCMG]

when can i schedule an appt?

[@jalal0019]

This so nice and wonderful explanation thank you so much you are intelligent

[@Ibrainandbody]

Thank you so much for the kind words Jalal!

[@VTuber_Central]

if you put it under the tongue does it absorb it better?

[@masterchief5437]

Thanks for the layman intelligent explanation, I got Epilepsy and trying the Ketogenic diet to see if it will help!

[@Muuip]

Great concise presentation! Lately I have been supplementing with zinc, magnesium, vitamin B-complex, GABA and polyphenols. It really calms down, best taken before sleeping.

[@GoldenGateNum9]

Chlorophyll with Alfalfa is a real dark horse, cant stress that enough. I have been experiencing insomnia for the past 3 years and have tried an Ashwagandha, Passion Flower and Chlorophyll combination which has been helping me sleep like a baby. Breathing meditation, mental attitude, exercise, lifestyle, and diet are also very important to achieve good balanced health.

[@Ibrainandbody]

That last statement: breathing, meditation, mental attitude, exercise, lifestyle and diet - yes! 100%!

[@Jennifer-gr7hn]

And killing the 'smart' deVICES. I never liked them, don't have one, and need will. All the rest, yes! And prayer, with purpose for living outside of ourselves. :)

[@mikewagner5855]

You talked about identifying alpha keto gluterate levels in a urine test. Is there a test you recommend?

[@Ibrainandbody]

Mike, an organic acids test will give you that information!

[@UHFStation1]

How is gaba inhibition used in the body? I have read inhibiting gaba might initiate certain regenerative processes. Namely the pancreas, and in zebrafish anyway the retinas.

[@cindylandry7856]

I have an essential tremor-ES. Spasms have been so bad, I have asked family if the bed or house was shaking. It's me! The skin crawling and tendon pains in high gear does have me depressed and anxious. All activity makes spasms worse. Researching since 6 am brought me to GABA.... This: Novel Therapies for Essential Tremor Based on Positive Modulation of α6-Containing GABAA Receptors. So I came back to YT to seek more info here on GABA. Having Sjorgrens has not helped. I wonder if it is all related. Hmmm. I already take B complex, Magnesium, D, and Calcium. What doctor should be able to help figure this out?

[@hanyelbanna3673]

Wonderful work Thanks

[@divined-signcoachingcompan3669]

I love the video..Such good knowledge. I would have liked to see some natural ways to get the vitamins you talked about. (Ex. foods we could eat) Thanks so much for the know how:)

[@keithclark8030]

Will fasting help with GABA?

[@katelynmensing9048]

Excellent video!

[@suebrookes7136]

Can you buy progestogen xx

[@norbaitijamaludin4728]

Really helpful. Tq so much

[@Oldtymehockey67]

What would be the best way to supplement while tapering off of lorazepam(which affects GABA production)? Tapering off has caused not only stress, increased cortisol levels, but also severe sleep issues. While undergoing testing to find that ROOT problem(which I currently am), I'd like to find a way to naturally lower the stress & cortisol and increase my sleep.

[@GoldenGateNum9]

Hi I don't know if you found a solution yet but In regards to sleeping problems I think that food and herbs which increase GABA activity are a big piece of the puzzle, I have been experiencing insomnia for the past 3 years and have tried an Ashwagandha , Passion Flower and Chlorophyll combination which has been helping me sleep like a baby. Even better than taking Melatonin capsules which is also a very helpful natural sleeping aid. 'Natures Answer' and 'NOW FOODS' have the best quality supplements. Hope this helps, if you need any advice please get in touch. Peace.

[@lovelaced928]

Try or look into L-Theanine

[@hollylockman9363]

I took 1/16 of a dose of L-theanjne and it made me sooooo dizzy but did make me calm. Why does it make me dizzy?

[@ThiagoDVaz]

It might lower blood pressure making you sleepy.

[@zettyhardi]

Why my brain cannot stop thinking even when i sleep my brain still moving. It's like my brain dont have break. I can't control my brain to stop moving & thingking. That is a symptom of low GABA?

[@whits6783]

Have you looked into meditation? It's really helped me learn to relax my brain. It's also been very beneficial to stay off my phone for a couple hours before bed. Stay healthy!

[@tousifk3138]

But i have seen if I take gaba supplement it slightly calms my mind how?

[@fastnate07]

Would being given valerian root for years as a child cause a shortage of gaba as an adult

[@Jon-hh3gz]

B6 reduces Glutamate not increases? That would be bad as too much b6 would produce a lot more gaba.

[@georgeyacoub6733]

Dr.Holmes , how can you activate the enzyme GAD ?

[@garyha2650]

And/or, what are the building blocks of GAD?

[@books5808]

I read recently that zinc is actually a blocker for Gaba, not sure about that one. Also I read Phenibut has a tendency to become addictive. The one thing im trying to understand about oxidative stress in relation to anxiety or depression is that its supposed to be corrected through anti oxidents like green tea or blue berries. I dont understand why people say sugar related foods like blueberries are a good idea if sugar is not good for anxiety.

[@Jennifer-gr7hn]

blueberries are HUGE....very important. Fruits that have the skin that matches the color of the fruit inside, are good. Time of day matters too. Don't eat fruit after 3pm. Berries are good! So is Hyperbaric 02 chamber. IV ozone, etc.

[@nickpatuto9809]

I was sober for 6 months off of Alcohol and weed felt good. Then I smoked weed one time and now I feel bad... did this affect gaba production ? And how long until I feel better

[@MartinTheBroker]

Thank you

[@ddtt958]

I used to drink a lot before. I've been sober about 7 months. I suspect the alcohol has damaged my brain a bit (gaba receptors etc). I feel better now than I did when I first decided to quit but I still deal with some anxiety and depression though I probably had that to a smaller degree while I was drinker also but I just didn't notice it then. I think my brain is slowly recovering. Would I set my recovery back or damage my brain receptors etc more if I were to use benzodiazepines for example in small amounts maybe once a month?

[@catherinepakenham-walsh234]

Hey did you get an answer to this question? I'd really like to know 😊

[@cindylandry7856]

Make sure you have good vitamin D levels or lots of sunshine, B12 is important - eat more beef. All from neurologist. My husband drinks and has vascular issues. Benzos long term can cause memory, dementia, but minimal use should not cause an issue, not temporary. Any Statins over 10 MG is damaging to your body also. Our brain floats in cholesterol. If you add B12 to your vitamin regime, go with B complex. We need all the B vitamins. Vit K helps arteries and puts calcium in the bones, not the arteries. We use that now because statins harmed my husband's brain. Can't get it too low. I hope some of this helps. Not medical advice, but I read a lot and am confident in what I shared.

[@annwertz8854]

Like to know more about the gaba

[@celinacerritos1942]

Woooooo beautifully information

[@RobertLongM]

Curious is there a possibility that we have a lack of CL ? Since the CL ions are what allows the good feeling, as opposed to GABA that opens the channel.

[@raymondysantiagocssm]

Oh honey

[@clivehazell2790]

Brilliant

[@mauricefemenias9752]

I need help ru available im willing to travel

[@pamalatrynovich4817]

So then why is GABA supplement being sold if it doesn’t do anything.

[@bertha35100]

Great video 😇

[@bbcraz1226]

Why would someone take a gaba inhinitor?

[@michaelpanichella707]

Take Phenibut. It's GABA with a phenyl group added so it will cross the blood brain barrier.

[@juanperez-ni2iw]

Where did you get it...does it have another name?

[@themexicannoodle5655]

So neurons are transmitted to amygdala? What does a neuron look like when a person is anxious or depressed???

[@raymondysantiagocssm]

oh honey

[@TTBOn00bKiLleR]

If you are anxious it just fires more frequently, GABA is making neurons fire more rarely by altering the potential diferential between the inside of the neuron and the outside

[@carolinabergstrom5409]

Really good 👍

[@YESHUASlave]

Woe. Wait. If i taught that in the class room at the College ('University') today, the other way around... wonder how that would go‽-) j/k 'progesterone'; lol-) Real Question: What is similiar in Men, or does less of Our Glutamate get turned into GABA??

[@MartinTheBroker]

Where are you located? Can I visit your office?

[@fredsmith2299]

Excellent. Medicinists will give drugs ro do all this but they fall short and only hits some areas .... but not the whole ...

[@necessaryJustice_4all]

What about pharmagaba?

[@pratikgandhi8168]

Yes...pharmagaba will do wonders for anxiety ...750-1000 mg daily.

[@pratikgandhi8168]

Regular GABA does nothing.

[@Antaeres]

So what happens if your methylation is fucked

[@everettjohnson265]

Its absorbed through the gut

[@bobobrien8968]

How does a guy get progesterone?

[@lakid9749]

seesome info

[@shenko225]

This video about the calming neurotransmitter got me super stressed out

[@Rommie26]

Are GABA supplements good for porn induced erectial dysfunction since watching porn weakens the neurotransmitters

[@Jennifer-gr7hn]

Another thing people need to do? Kill the "smart" deVICE. It's a pink elephant in the room to people like me.

[@alexalmes]

I take GABA supplements and they help me sleep.

[@pratikgandhi8168]

P5p (100 -200 mg) - b6 does wonders - not pridoxine...

[@megarlyons]

B vitamins B1.......helps

[@jorgeingle3526]

[@beverleycumming1876]

So most of us if healthy don’t need a supplement

[@GleKar69]

Yes, you are BEAUTIFUL. :-)

She is mine buster

Took me just a few seconds to fall in love with her

[@janigrohn4516]

Fasting increases Gaba release

[@pratikgandhi8168]

Need pharmagaba....regular gaba does nothing ..

[@MrHandoverfist]

lithium...that is lead...NO.

[@mitramoso]

Rapid fire talk. What is the hurry. Slow down and there will be enough GABA. .

[@joshyard5113]

adderall

[@reggiereg2989]

Back off of your BABA your brain is not able to process the info...I suggest moving into the realm of Adderall lol

[@syedali-le6ii]

She's such a cutiepie 😘

[@C.N.1]

Don't do drugs

[@hvbuitenen]

Sorry, you talk way to fast and your pronunciation isn't to good neither

[@hvbuitenen]

Sorry, i can deal with an accent, but really fast spoken texts, that are only partially pronounced is hard. This is not an easy chat, as you say it's science so there is a limit to what you can hear, fill in the missing parts and understand. Some can easily do this, but not everyone it that good with language.

[@takforalt]

Have you tried slowing it down in the settings? I find her articulation fine, however, I can see that she speaks rather quickly and rushed. No one is perfect my friend.

[@hvbuitenen]

Hi, indeed, no one is perfect, that goes for both the speaker and the listener. And i do not expect her to be perfect. But because not all listeners are completely without linguistic flaws, the public you will reach vary greatly depending op your speech. That's why people go to training's and that's why feedback can be useful. i just think she can do better is she pays a little attention to this. But maybe my comment was a little too brief. It just portraits the effect it had on me.

[@hkgs_knight4216]

Slow down the speed

[@reggiereg2989]

To us Americans that have grown up speaking English it is actually Perfect Pronunciation, Take more English classes...

[@garyha2650]

Addictive, no. On the other hand of course too much is bad like anything, but in this case increased libido tough to satisfy. Aside from that, in my experience, with tame amount, empathy for others, which I think is simply a return to the natural state. If someone is already fine with GABA-B, it has no effect, or that's what I gather from reading. Pretty sure GABA-A is more frontal cortex and related moreso with alcohol effects by the way.
