According to the National Library of Medicine (NLM) of the United States, Gaba (gamma aminobutyric acid) is an amino acid that acts as a "calming agent" in the nervous system, helping the body relax and maintain mental stability. Naturally, sprouted brown rice is a rich source of gaba. When rice grains begin to sprout, enzymes are activated, increasing gaba levels many times over compared to regular brown rice.

Nutrition experts indicate that gaba, combined with B vitamins, fiber, and plant-based minerals, can help reduce stress by calming the nervous system. It also improves sleep quality for individuals experiencing prolonged stress. Additionally, this substance helps maintain stable energy levels, preventing mid-day "burnout" and enhancing focus.

Recognizing the health benefits of gaba, many nutrition brands have incorporated this substance into convenient beverage lines, including Orgalife Nutrition Science Company Limited. The company's O’go Smoothie Sprouted Brown Rice soup product uses natural, healthy, plant-based ingredients, boosting gaba, B vitamins, and natural fiber.

The product suits intellectual workers needing to reduce stress, maintain alertness, and sustain focus. It is also suitable for vegetarians or those reducing animal protein who need plant-based protein and fiber. The ready-to-drink soup allows users to quickly supplement nutrition on busy days when they lack time to prepare snacks.

A representative from Orgalife stated that plant-based gaba does not replace medication for stress, insomnia, or anxiety disorders. However, appropriate supplementation, combined with a proper sleep schedule, light exercise, and limited caffeine intake, can help improve mental fatigue.

"Choosing products with clear origins that match taste and nutritional needs helps users maintain long-term gaba supplementation habits, enhancing quality of life and work performance", the representative said.

Orgalife Nutrition Science Company Limited, established in 2014, specializes in developing products based on nutritional, medical, and biological science. The company owns a modern manufacturing plant, ensuring quality and safety for each product. The enterprise has received recognition through numerous awards, including "top 1 brand in Vietnam" and "top 10 leading reputable brands in Asia" in 2025.
