You might have heard of or seen the name GABA in supplements that you have used before. You may have not even heard of the name GABA, but in recent years many supplements have been marketed with their highlighted main ingredient being GABA.
One of the most important sets of regulations for consumables is the (G)ood (M)anufacturing (P)ractice set of regulations.
