Abstract
γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a non-protein amino acid, plays an important role in the human nervous system. GABA has revealed numerous physiological benefits in the medical and pharmaceutical fields in humans. It is regarded as an edible alternative treatment for the prevention and treatment of many diseases. As a result, GABA-rich functional foods are highly favored by consumers. Therefore, in order to meet the demand for healthy food, the use of effective and safe enrichment methods to increase the content of GABA in food has received much attention. The content of GABA in natural foods, bioenrichment techniques, and the health benefits of GABA-rich foods are discussed. In addition, this paper also discusses the shortcomings and future challenges of GABA bioconcentration technology, in order to provide a new idea for the investigation of GABA enrichment technology.
