Abstract
This invention relates to a composition for increasing endogenous γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and melatonin levels, and its application. The composition comprises a Panax notoginseng stem and leaf complex, GABA, L-theanine, and licorice extract. The Panax notoginseng stem and leaf complex is a product obtained by alcohol extraction from Panax notoginseng stems and leaves, Gastrodia elata, Poria cocos, and Ziziphus jujuba seeds. This invention first developed a Panax notoginseng stem and leaf complex, obtained by alcohol extraction from four specific medicinal and edible materials: Panax notoginseng stems and leaves, Gastrodia elata, Poria cocos, and Ziziphus jujuba seeds. These four raw materials have a potential synergistic effect in increasing endogenous GABA and melatonin levels. This invention also creatively combines this Panax notoginseng stem and leaf complex with GABA, L-theanine, and licorice extract. The four components synergistically enhance the effect of increasing endogenous GABA and melatonin levels.
