GABA is a neurotransmiter. It is used for many processes in the brain. I have forgotten most of the details, but I know it is involved with resting/sleep, and is affected by many illegal drugs. I'm not sure what its use would be invloved with body building though. I think it is one of those things that is essential for overall well being but does not have a specific muscle enhancing effect.

Actually, I've read that GABA is a naturally occuring amino acid that is classified as a neurotransmitter. It's supposed to enhance your human growth hormone while you sleep by something crazy like 400%. I recently started taking it, recently being 2 days ago. All I can tell you is it definitely helps you sleep better and the amount you take is so tiny. 3 grams in 8oz of water or juice. I guess it's worth a try, you can find it pretty cheap too.

There isnt sufficient evidence to support that i believe.
It is true however, that one of GABA's functions is to stimulate the release of growth hormones.

I'm sure it's not true.. nothing you take has been evaluated by the FDA, but according to AST Sports Science, there's is supposed to increase it by 400%
