Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid synthesized in the body from the essential amino acid phenylalanine. Tyrosine promotes alertness, energy, mental focus, drive and enthusiasm.
Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid synthesized in the body from the essential amino acid phenylalanine. Tyrosine is the precursor amino acid from which the body makes Dopamine (with vitamin B-6 as cofactor), which is then converted to Nor-epinephrine (with vitamin C as cofactor) and then to Epinephrine (with SAMe as cofactor). Tyrosine competes for uptake with other large neutral amino acids, so in order to maximize absorption from the supplemented Tyrosine into various tissues (such as brain, adrenals, nerves), it should be taken on an empty stomach, or two hours away from a protein containing meal. Promotes alertness, energy, mental focus, drive and enthusiasm.
