Low GABA Levels. One of the main causes of sleep maintenance insomnia results from low levels of the brain chemical (neurotransmitter) called GABA. GABA is your main relaxing and tranquillising brain chemical.
In addition to this, GABA may make you feel unusually drowsy; this side effect comes from the same enhancements that make GABA a great answer for insomnia or anxiety. There have been multiple studies done on the overall effects and side effects of GABA. It was found that some users of GABA were given the substance via IV, and those subjects generally experienced light headedness and dysphoria, as well as an increase in heart rate and blood pressure.
