All I know is that when I tried GABA it definitely had an effect on my mind. Not just the body. It calmed me down physically and mentally, but also was depressing to me. I had been in a fairly ok mood before taking, with some anxiety, but after taking it I got markedly more depressed. There was no doubt as far as I was concerned that it did get into the brain.
And yes, I have read everywhere that GABA doesn't cross the brain barrier, so I did not expect it to do anything. My personal trials of it indicated the literature to be misguided or outright wrong.
