L-Tyrosine is a dietary supplement that contains L-tyrosine, an important amino acid,  used to support thyroid wellness, nervous system balance, and emotional well-being. L-Tyrosine is available in capsules from Natura-Genics®.

How It Works

L-tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid, made by the body using another amino acid, phenylalanine. L-tyrosine helps build proteins and produce enzymes, thyroid hormones, and neurotransmitters. Levels of L-tyrosine in the body can be influenced by factors such as stress, poor diet, intense physical activity, or increased demand for neurotransmitter production.

Supports Thyroid Gland Health

L-Tyrosine supports the production of thyroid hormones, specifically thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These hormones help regulate the body’s metabolic rate, as well as support systems like heart function, digestion, muscle strength, and reproductive health. Maintaining healthy thyroid activity is also important for managing energy levels and body temperature.

Supports Healthy Metabolism

Thyroid hormones play a role in how the body uses calories and energy, which impacts overall metabolic function. By supporting natural hormone production, L-Tyrosine may contribute to maintaining a balanced metabolism. It also plays a role in dopamine production, a neurotransmitter associated with motivation and reward, which can support mindful eating habits and emotional balance related to food choices.,

Supports Nervous System Health

L-tyrosine helps make several important substances for the nervous system, including dopamine and adrenaline. Recent studies have shown that dopamine is an important brain chemical for memory and motor skills. Adrenaline is responsible for the “fight-or-flight” response that comes into play under stress or when feeling afraid.

Promotes Mood and Emotional Balance

L-Tyrosine supports the production of dopamine, which plays a significant role in emotional well-being and motivation. Balanced dopamine levels are associated with a greater sense of reward, focus, and positive mood. Including L-Tyrosine as part of a daily wellness routine may help promote a stable emotional state and support overall mental wellness.
