                                Studies have shown that while GABA does possess some thermal stability, exposure to high temperatures can lead to significant degradation, potentially impacting its nutritional benefits. This raises a critical question for health-conscious consumers: is GABA destroyed by cooking, and if so, what methods are best for its preservation?
