Re: GABA and speech improvement

[Guest guest]

We use GABA and have since probably May 2010. We use it for anxiety. His speech has improved since last year but not sure if it was from the GABA. We've been doing tons of other things too.

 

I was reading part of Amy Yasko's book on Google books and read about how low GABA affects speech and could improve it. Anyone use this or try this ever????

We just started GABA ( " Zen " capsules) this past week with the hopes that it

would help with anxiety, but my son's speech improved dramatically just a couple

of hours after I gave the first dose. It's difficult to say whether it's due to

the GABA but the timing was very interesting to me. We gave him the GABA before

his nap on Friday, and he woke up from his nap speaking clearly! It was very

sudden. I didn't know that GABA is known to help with speech in some cases so

I really think this may be the case for my son.

What I noticed was that his speech was much easier to understand -- he had been

slurring his words and was getting harder to understand, and all of a sudden we

could understand every word that he was saying!

We have used 5-HTP and GABA to ease our son's anxiety. No improvements in Speech though.

GABA helps my son's speech too, but it puts him to sleep and the effects don't

last very long.

I believe that some use depakote to raise GABA levels.

Alberta!! Here's a cool site that lists the Paranil Jr. AND the GABA in the supplement section!!!http://www.autismhelp4u.com/supplements.html I read on some other forum that the suggestion is to start with one capsule and if no changes then two the next day and then if no changes then three....and after this if there are no changes in any way then your child may not need GABA.???The kirkman labs brand is 250 mg...so.......> >> >> >> > I was reading part of Amy Yasko's book on Google books and read about> >> how low GABA affects speech and could improve it.

The specific supplement we're using is " 200 mg. of Zen " by Allergy Research

Group. It's GABA combined with L-Theanine.
