L-Tyrosine

A non-essential amino acid and precursor to catecholamine neurotransmitters (dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine). Supports cognitive performance under stress, focus, and alertness.

What it’s good for

L-tyrosine is the direct precursor to dopamine and norepinephrine via tyrosine hydroxylase. Under stressful conditions, catecholamine turnover increases and tyrosine supplementation prevents depletion, maintaining focused attention.

Dose: 500–1000 mg
