L-Tyrosine - 515mg each Capsule. 60 Capsules per Bottle.

Tyrosine is a nonessential amino acid the body makes from another amino acid called phenylalanine. It is a building block for several important brain chemicals called neurotransmitters, including epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine. Neurotransmitters help nerve cells communicate and influence mood.
         Tyrosine also helps produce melanin, the pigment responsible for hair and skin color. It helps in the function of organs responsible for making and regulating hormones, including the adrenal, thyroid, and pituitary glands. It is involved in the structure of almost every protein in the body​.

 Phenylketonuria (PKU). This serious condition occurs in people whose bodies can't use the amino acid phenylalanine. Tyrosine is used in protein supplements for people with PKU​

 Stress. L-Tyrosine is involved in the production of the stress hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine. 

 Sleep deprivation. One study suggests that taking tyrosine may help you be more alert after sleep deprivation, but more research is needed.​

 L-Tyrosine helps the body produce the mood-influencing chemical dopamine, and because people who are depressed often have low levels of tyrosine, researchers thought that tyrosine might help treat depression. However, studies have found that it has no effect.
