Product Details
Tyrosine has received recent attention as a potential treatment for a variety of stressful situations.
Tyrosine is a white, crystalline amino acid obtained from the hydrolysis of proteins such as casein. It is a precursor to the catecholamine hormones (e.g. epinephrine), thyroid hormones (e.g. thyroxine) and several neurotransmitters (e.g. dopamine). The l-isomer is contained in most proteins. It can be synthesized in the body from phenylalanine, but specific therapeutic effects may only be obtained through additional supplementation.
