Tyrosin - 120 Capsules

Properties

Short description of Tyrosine

The amino acid L-tyrosine is involved in numerous body functions and is often supplemented as a starting substance for the synthesis of all catecholamines (L-DOPA, dopamine, adrenalin, noradrenalin etc.) as well as thyroid hormones as a "diet amino acid" and before training.

Tyrosine is enriched with a vitamin B complex, which helps to reduce symptoms of fatigue.

What can I expect from Tyrosine?

The amino acid tyrosine can provide you with effective support in nutrient-reduced diets, as it has the property of maintaining the synthesis of important hormones and neurotransmitters (thyroid hormones, catecholamines). For this reason you can also supplement tyrosine excellently in combination with caffeine before training. The B-vitamins support this and help you to suffer less from fatigue and your energy metabolism functions normally.

The overall effects of supplementing with tyrosine, however, depend very much on your exercise, your eating habits and the use of supplementary supplements and sports nutrition (BCAAs, diet supplements).

So that the strong, but short functional boost of tyrosine does not fizzle out, you should adjust the quantity of all basic substrates to your individual training or diet goals and, above all, supply proteins as constantly as possible throughout the day.

Functionality and mode of action of Tyrosine

In contrast to amino acids from normal food, protein concentrates or amino acid combinations, individual amino acids such as tyrosine generally have the advantage that they can develop their very special functionality in isolation. This can be done better if the individual amino acid is dominant, i.e. if possible isolated in the blood pool. In the case of fully-fledged protein sources, on the other hand, a large number of amino acids always enter the blood pool at the same time, whereby individual amino acids can compete for supremacy to a certain extent. In this respect, individual amino acids should preferably be taken on an empty stomach.

Diets are often accompanied by unpleasant side effects such as fatigue, exhaustion and excessive appetite, which can lead to a break in the diet or at least severely hinder it. These symptoms can often be traced back to an insufficient intake of certain nutrients. A deficiency of the proteinogenic amino acid L-tyrosine can also become a limiting factor, as this amino acid fulfils important functions.

Tyrosine is the starting substrate for the formation of thyroid hormones (T3) and (T4) as well as all catecholamines. The latter category includes hormones and neurotransmitters in the central nervous system L-DOPA, dopamine as well as adrenalin and noradrenalin. In the biosynthesis of cateholamines from tyrosine, the enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase L-DOPA is used to produce L-DOPA, which in turn is used to produce dopamine with the aid of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC). Dopamine can be hydroxylated by dopamine-beta-hydroxylase to noradrenaline, which - optionally catalysed - can be converted into phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase - adrenaline.

Catecholamines and thyroid hormones are very important for the normal performance of the organism, which is why the availability of their starting substrate - L-tyrosine - is also important.

Peak Tyrosine contains high doses of L-tyrosine (500 mg per capsule) and a vitamin B complex with niacin, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12. This complex contributes, among other things, to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue as well as to the maintenance of a normal nervous system and energy metabolism. Vitamin B6 is also an important factor when it comes to regulating the hormonal system and - together with vitamin B12 - normal functioning of the immune system, which rounds off the functional spectrum of the product.
