Health-Promoting GABA-Rich Teas

Tea Side's Premium Quality Thai GABA Tea Helps to Mitigate Stress

Tea Side's premium Thai GABA tea boasts a potent, sweet flora aroma. While the first Gamma-aminobutyric Acid (GABA) tea was produced in Japan in 1987, its use remains a popular go-to for promoting mental alertness and mental health. Other GABA health benefits include lowering blood pressure, improving cardiovascular regulation, alleviating depression, and lowering stress and anxiety levels.

This particular brand blends the beneficial ingredient with sweet plums and pears to create a floral bouquet -- characteristic of premium Taiwanese teas. Produced from high-quality whole oolong tea leaves, GABA-rich tea contains roughly 30-40 times more GABA than ordinary green tea. Its unique healing properties are curated through the oxidation stage in the tea manufacturing process, during which nitrogen is used to allow GABA to have highly calming effects on the body.
