Hi
I have read that 90% of serotonin receptors can be found in the gut. Are there any GABA receptors

hi,
<Magnesium has worked very well on physical symptoms e.g. muscle cramps and triggers. I'm not so sure about anxiety. Tyrosine has helped in regard to panic and energy.Niacinamide aggravated my anxiety>
that's me too..I'm sure though magnesium does nothing for my anxiety. and niacinamide definitely increases anxiety in me.
I'm just starting to trial l-taurine.
Got my shipment in from the US.

Hello Jan
I will watch your l-taurine experiment with great interest!I am waiting for some Mg taurate (and Picamilon and Phenibut and.....). At present I'm on a quest to explore GABA enhancers. All this trial and error gets a bit ridiculous but I don't know of a better way to track down what will actually work.
Have you tried glycine, serine or threonine?
PS I have a leg in each of the Babble and Alternative pages - it's hard to remain pure!
Good luck for your taurine trial, Jan.

>Jan,
I'll be interested to see how it goes as well. I've been thinking of trying some for my anxiety and to help with sleep. A book I read mentioned taking glycine and taurine together at night for sleep so I may try that also.
Keep us posted.
