GABA RDI

Article navigation

There is no current recommended daily intake or tolerable upper intake for GABA.

Therapeutic dosage

There is a therapeutic dosage for GABA, which is the most that can be safely taken for a short period before supplementation produces side effects:

  • Adults: 250mg-500mg per day (divided into equal portions)
There is no current recommended daily intake or tolerable upper intake for GABA

Supplementation of GABA should only be taken in smaller doses through the day and not in one huge supplement. The higher levels of GABA should only be taken under strict medical supervision because supplementation at very high levels may cause some side effects in some people.
