L-Tyrosine

Best Answer:  Yes definitely take both. Pretty sure Selenium has to mix with Tyrosine to enable T3 and T4 in your thyroid

Moreover, tyrosine does a million other awesome things for you that selenium does not. All the neurotransmitters that give you energy come from tyrosine

Jake C.
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.

    Glutamine (2.2 Pound Powder)
    Glutamine 1000mg- Essential Amino Acid for Muscle Form
    L-Glutamine is a flavorless, easy-mixing powder and an extremely versatile free form amino acid formula. It is the most abundant, naturally occurring amino acid in muscle tissue, but it can be depleted during prolonged training. Supplementing with L-Glutamine replenishes depleted stores, to help build new lean muscle and protect hard-earned gains by supporting protein synthesis. L-Glutamine also supports acid-base homeostasis. L-Glutamine supports post-workout muscle energy repletion, volumization, and repair. This "conditionally essential" amino acid functions as a critical factor in muscle form and function.† Supports Muscle Cell Volumization And Muscle Development Taking L-Glutamine supplements will help you improve exercise performance and gain muscles. The supplement also hydrates your body cells which are critical for repair and growth. Replenishes Depleted Glutamine Levels When one is stressed, ill, or injured, the L-Glutamine levels will go down, causing your body to look for the amino acid in your muscles to fill the gap. Glutamine supplements can support faster recovery for several ailments.
