Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid, which means that unlike the essential ones, it can be synthesized from other substances. Its sufficient level has a positive effect on vitality, concentration, as well as normal muscle function.
The amino acid L-tyrosine is found in the diet and is metabolized to produce catecholamines such as dopamine, epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline).
Adrenaline and noradrenaline are stress hormones that are released primarily in stressful situations. They increase heart rate or blood sugar. They are responsible for behaviour under stress and act as a "power starter" in the body.
Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter that is produced in the brain. It is the "messenger" of the nervous system that transmits chemical information and influences human behavior - motivation, attention or mood. In certain parts of the brain, dopamine is released especially during naturally pleasurable activities such as sex, physical activity or a workout at the gym.
