L-Tyrosine

L-Tyrosine, from Vitobest®, is a product made from L-Tyrosine, the amino acid derived from the hydrolysis of dietary proteins¹ that directly intervenes in the production of dopamine, norepinephrine, adrenaline², thyroid hormone, and melanin pigments in both the skin and scalp³.

Several studies affirm that the intake of L-Tyrosine can result in an increase in mental clarity and alertness, as well as an improvement in memory⁴. They also reflect that it has been used with excellent results as an antidepressant and mood enhancer: the catecholamine norepinephrine derived from tyrosine, plays an important role in relieving mental anxiety and depression⁵.

Produced by Ajipure® from Ajinomoto®, the Japanese company synonymous with quality with a presence in more than 23 countries around the world, the active ingredient in our formula contains the highest standards of quality, efficiency and responsibility towards the product, the environment and society.

Vitobest® uses for this supplement vegetable capsules (VegeCaps) suitable for vegan diets and free of titanium dioxide.
