What is L-PHENYLALANINE?
 
L-PHENYLALANINE is an essential amino acid (building block for proteins in the body). It is crucial to human health but cannot be manufactured by the body. For this reason, L-PHENYLALANINE must be obtained from food.
 
The body converts L-PHENYLALANINE into tyrosine, another amino acid essential for making proteins, brain chemicals including dopamine and norepinephrine, and thyroid hormones involved in the regulation of everything from mood to memory, appetite and pain.
 
What does L-PHENYLALANINE do?
 
L-PHENYLALANINE works to help maintain levels of important neurotransmitters to assist in the communication between neurons in the brain. This may help improve mood, reduce pain sensations and assist in a variety of other body processes including the maintenance of regular sleep patterns.
 
Also involved in the production of hormones in the body, L-PHENYLALANINE may aid weight loss efforts. This unique compound releases a hormone called cholecystokinin that signals to the brain that you are full after eating, increasing feelings of satiety to support weight management.
