Lamberts L-Phenylalanine 500mg (Tyrosine Precursor), 60 Capsules
Amino acids are classified as either essential or non-essential. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesised in the body and must be obtained from the diet, whereas non-essential amino acids, whilst still essential for health, can be synthesised in the body and are therefore not classified as 'essential'.
Phenylalaine is an essential amino acid and is the precursor for the amino acid tyrosine. Like tyrosine, it is the precursor for the neurotransmitters called catecholamines (adrenaline, noradrenaline and dopamine).
Phenylalanine occurs in two forms; L-Phenylalanine which is a natural amino acid found in proteins and D-Phenylalanine which can be produced in a laboratory but is not needed by the body as a nutrient, Lamberts® L-Phenylalanine is presented in its free-form to help ensure optimal absorption.
• Precursor for the excitatory neurotransmitters - adrenaline, noradrenaline and dopamine
• These three neurotransmitters are important in alertness, memory and muscle co-ordination.
As with all our amino acids, Lamberts L-Phenylalanine is presented in its free-form for maximum absorption. Each capsule provides a full 500mg of L-Phenylalanine.
