That's it, that's my question. I just bought GABA as a pure powder, and unsure and heard mixed things as to whether taking it straight up like this is enough to get it past the BBB as long as I take it on an empty stomach. Based on how I feel, it certainly seems to be working as I get very relaxed on it.
Does taking GABA powder cross the BBB?

I bought a kilo of the stuff, also taurine. It seemed to work more at first and then the effect seemed less. It may have been the pacebo effect at first but it does make a difference though a mild one. I take maybe a couple grams of each at a time. Someone will chime in that theanine works better and it does. But, it's much more expensive and doesn't do all that much either.

I'd swear my GABA is working, and well, I don't think this is placebo at all, but I dunno. It knocks me out in high dose, and relaxes me at smaller dose.
What do you take the taurine for? And I think i get enough theanine with tea, right?
