    neurotransmitter that inhibits nerve activity, promoting relaxation

    Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid, commonly known as GABA, is a neurotransmitter in the brain that inhibits nerve transmission, helping to regulate nervous system activity and reduce neuronal excitability. It plays a crucial role in promoting relaxation and reducing stress, and imbalances in GABA levels are associated with conditions like anxiety, epilepsy, and insomnia.
