I didn't believe in the homeopathic way either, but curiosity got the better of me and I began to do some research. Not to forget that I was kinda lead into it when someone told me about GABA.

I found studies which GABA was being used with children with ADHD, others that were for pain management, and still others for weight control. I mentioned these studies to some people I knew and brave souls they are, they tried it. I know a young lady who has adult ADHD and GABA helped her with her anger management, plus she is now a paralegal. She reported to me that the GABA helped 'slow' her mind so she could study and actually think through her anger rather than simply reacting.

I know another person who tried GABA for chronic back pain, while it didn't eliminate the pain, it was manageable which he considered a success.

Two people I know tried GABA for weight control and with a mild exercise program lost over 50 pounds between them within 6 months.

So...scientific evidence not withstanding, empirical evidence attests to either effectiveness of the amino acid OR a placebo effect.

Something science once forgot in it's rush to the future, is that natural worked for centuries. up to and including leeching.

Nice part about most of the homeopathic remedies is that effective or not, they usually can't hurt. Sometimes it's just worth a try.
