Amino acids are well known as the building blocks of the body. Amino acids are so important for growth, development and repair, that the body in many cases has developed mechanisms to allow it to produce some of the amino acids needed for health. There are however still some amino acids that must be supplied via your diet.
Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid that must be obtained through the diet. Found primarily in high protein sources such as meat and eggs, it plays an important role in regulating the nervous system.
L-Phenylalanine can be used to metabolize two distinct chemicals, phenylethylamine and tyrosine. Phenylethylamine is a neuroamine which may have regulating effects in mood and feelings of well-being. Tyrosine is an important amino acid used to produce certain neurotransmitters. The synthesis of these neurotransmitters is limited by the rate of tyrosine entry from plasma into the brain. L-tyrosine is a conditionally essential amino acid that can be manufactured by the body from the essential amino acid phenylalanine. Therefore, adequate tyrosine production depends on a sufficient supply of phenylalanine in the diet.
Douglas Labs offers a convenient option for individuals looking to supplement this essential amino acid. Just one capsule daily provides a healthy serving that could potentially raise L-Phenylalanine levels as well as vital neurotransmitter production.
