L-Tyrosine is an amino acid that is involved in the production of neurotransmitters and hormones. Once ingested, L-Tyrosine is used to produce important neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. These neurotransmitters play a role in regulating mood, stress response, and cognitive function. L-Tyrosine is a precursor to the thyroid hormones, which play a vital role in regulating metabolism. L-Tyrosine is a vital amino acid that plays a key role in the production of neurotransmitters and hormones.
