L-Tyrosine

Sci-Fit's L-Tyrosine is a protein amino acid, that is classified as conditionally essential, meaning that the body under normal circumstances produces enough L-Tyrosine, but there are circumstances under which supplementation can become necessary.

L-Tyrosine is involved in protein synthesis, moreover it is a precursor to the synthesis of catecholamines epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine, the thyroid hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine and the pigment melanin.

L-Tyrosine has an antidepressant effect. This effect may be accounted for in the role L-Tyrosine plays in the synthesis of the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and dopamine.

Elevated norepinephrine and dopamine levels are associated with antidepressant effects
