GABAergic Pathway Support

Meaning

A clinical strategy involving targeted interventions, often through specific supplements or lifestyle modifications, designed to enhance the synthesis, release, or receptor sensitivity of Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. This support aims to increase the net inhibitory tone in the brain, which effectively reduces neuronal hyperexcitability and promotes a state of calm, counteracting the effects of chronic stress. It is a key focus in managing anxiety and sleep disorders.
