However, in 1987, the Japanese Tea Research Institute succeeded in increasing the GABA level in tea by using a special manufacturing process. Since then, it has been studied for its ability to help us relax and help us lower our blood pressure. Positive results made it popular as a healthy tea. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[***]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is GABA?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eGABA naturally resides in the human body's central nervous system, such as the brain and spinal cord, and acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter that suppresses excitement. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eIt is a type of amino acid that maintains blood pressure and sympathetic nerves in their normal state, suppresses and lowers blood pressure spikes, relieves tension and stress, and calms brain excitement, thus improving the quality of sleep. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHistory of GABA tea\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/3909\/6222\/files\/20250514-029.jpg?v=1750869738\" alt=\"\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eAbout 40 years ago, in an effort to improve tea farming techniques, the Tea Industry Research Institute was examining whether it would be possible to preserve fresh leaves for a long period of time while still maintaining its fresh flavor.

Many of us ingest GABA on a daily basis without even realizing it. In recent years, supplements and functional foods containing GABA have become available. However, GABA tea is recommended for those who want to naturally incorporate GABA into their diets, and for those who have problems with high blood pressure, body fat, and stress. Additionally, our GABA tea offers not only GABA, but all of tea’s other health benefits. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeet the Producers: Organic GABA Green Tea\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg height=\"570\" width=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/3909\/6222\/files\/00320502_303-105.jpg_copy_3383b266-1dbc-4fe3-a232-e8269aa997ff_1024x1024.jpg?v=1744151911\" style=\"margin-bottom: 16px; float: none; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eMeet Ikezaki-san and Mizuno-san.
