Phenylalanine
L-phenylalanine is important for emotional health and memory support*
L-phenylalanine is an essential amino acid found in protein-rich foods like beef, poultry, pork, milk, eggs and soy. It’s converted by the body into L-tyrosine, another amino acid. L-tyrosine is responsible for the creation of certain proteins, thyroid hormones and brain chemicals. Low levels of these neurotransmitters have been associated with poor mood and poor memory. L-phenylalanine supplementation may promote emotional well-being and help support memory.*
