Using VS L-Tyrosine daily for more than 20 years, 30 minutes before bedtime, enhances stress-free, REM sleep. Taking purposefully before stressful meetings, etc. consistently relaxes and inspires confidence, precluding obsessing and anxiety; as well as enhancing empathy and successful resolving negotiations sooner. For any academic, test taking, etc. L-Tyrosine relaxes, while sharpening focus and communication skills.

No difference
At this point, I feel/see no difference. Perhaps my mental acuity is already on point. It may be helpful to someone who struggles to focus

Good for the thyroid
I take this for thyroid support, along with selenium, zinc, vitamin A, and B vitamins, (& D3 for deficiency that's caused my hypothyroidism). I feel great and haven't needed to change my synthroid/levothyroxine for years.

Best Answer:  Yes definitely take both. Pretty sure Selenium has to mix with Tyrosine to enable T3 and T4 in your thyroidMoreover, tyrosine does a million other awesome things for you that selenium does not. All the neurotransmitters that give you energy come from tyrosine

norepinephrine = I'm currently using a Rx = Cymbalta which inhibits, " Duloxetine is known as a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI). This medication works by helping to restore the balance of certain natural substances (serotonin and norepinephrine) in the brain." (quoted from WebMD) Should I consult with my physician about these 2 items = L-Tyrosine & Cymbalta as they both seem to effect the brain chemistry?
Sherry

Best Answer:  Yes, I would definitely consult a doctor. There's no way to know how much the amino acids will affect targeted brain chemistry when there's already a medicine working on the same area. An interesting book to read would be "The Mood Cure" by Julia Ross. She deals with the chemistry in the body/brain and how it affects our mood.
