Bypassing the Blood Brain Barrier

Scientists may have come up with a way to bypass the blood brain barrier using nanoparticles, it’s a barrier that prevents a lot of substances from entering the brain. This could open the way to new therapies.

I would like to see technology like this applied to something like a GABA supplement, there is mixed messaging on the Internet on if GABA supplements cross the BBB, if it could that might mean the end of having to take benzos and all the problems that comes with those. I’ve tried GABA supplements and they don’t really have any effect on me, they don’t calm me down or put me to sleep like a benzo does.
