Take Tyrosine For Better Adrenal, Thyroid & Brain Health

[@dudoklasovity2093]

Great video! I am using 500 tyrosine + 500mg acetyl-tyrosine (on empty stomach) before excercise and it gives great mood and energy. Before I was too lethargic due to depression and burnt out adrenals. The fact that I can exercise now also greatly decreased my depression and I feel great again. Added bonus I get the california tan now too👍 I do not use caffeine (don’t want to overwork adrenals) instead I use theanine and vitamin C👍

[@KristenTorry]

Wow. Thats exactly my goal. I have no energy and i can barely function and do basic daily things and my parents always tell me im lazy etc. I have adhd, depression for years and hypothyroidism and i relate a lot to what you're saying. Can you tell me what brand did you get because id love to know for sure from someone who has positive experience from it?

[@madlenj.4644]

Do you take Anti Depressants? 1000mg made me tired. Lft me feeling like i have 2 Elephants on each Foot. Even though i fel wthout exactly as you lethargic. So thats why i´m assuming you must be taking AD?

The exact composition of amino acids in beef can vary depending on factors such as the cut of meat, the age of the animal, and its diet. However, I can provide you with a general estimate of the amino acid composition in 1 kilogram of beef protein. Please note that these values are approximate and can vary: Leucine: 28.5 grams Lysine: 20.4 grams Valine: 19.5 grams Isoleucine: 16.9 grams Threonine: 15.6 grams Phenylalanine: 15.2 grams Methionine: 6.5 grams Tryptophan: 3.3 grams Histidine: 9.5 grams Arginine: 24.5 grams Alanine: 15.5 grams Aspartic acid: 25.3 grams Cysteine: 2.6 grams Glutamic acid: 38.2 grams Glycine: 14.7 grams Proline: 12.9 grams Serine: 13.3 grams Tyrosine: 10.3 grams Asparagine: 8.6 grams Glutamine: 6.9 grams

I would love to know same stuff for ox liver. I eat it twice a year as it is the best source of choline. Also price wise is lot more sensible to buy liver or hearts (or offal) than meat. It has same amount of protein, but also delivers way more nutrients like vitamins and micro elements.

Over 20 years of going to endocrinologist paying big $$$ bcuz of crappy insurance. Never has the doc given such valuable information! The only advice I received was do Rai, or do surgery. I had so much hope going into this one endo, thinking she could fix me, her response was - if you’re not doing surgery then find another endo. 😢 crushed.

No you shouldn’t some people have different COMT genes and different levels of neurotransmitters. Some may get anxiety and tension from supplement l tyrosine . Don’t take it unless you know what your doing

[@FJMay-jx6hr]

Would there be a difference by taking l-phenylalanine instead of l-tyrosine?

[@Buttercookie-h7d]

Im hypo, and wondering what the best time of day to take it would be. I work graveyard shifts so I sleep from 9am to 3pm each day, get up and get ready to go to my second job which is in the evenings and that's when I take my "morning" supplements preferably thyroid ones, however it's on an empty stomach because I don't eat until later, before I go to my primary job at 11 pm. That's when I take supplements necessary with food. So my schedule is unorthodox but I do have a pattern I follow.

[@slowdown6436]

Are there any foods that contain pure tyrosine ??? Most recommendations for " high tyrosine" foods seem to be listed as a good source just because they have the precursor phenylalanine, but I am unsure if they actually contain any tyrosine at all ? I am asking in regards to conditions that restrict phenylalanine conversion to tyrosine. Thank you

[@blazed2571]

How should I cycle it? Do I take it everyday?

[@brienq]

These questions are for anyone knowledgeable on the topic since its unlikely Dr. Childs will answer my questions. Since not everyone may not need L-tyrosine and I typically have issues with insomnia, but also have attention deficit at times I would like to try it. However, dopamine the metabolite of L tyrosine is supposed to help with sleep, but could tyrosine make it worse since we also know that too much downstream neurotransmitter metabolites like norepinephrine and epinephrine will cause insomnia or cause overproduction of thyroid hormone?, Would it be worth just trying the lowest dose, i.e., 250 mg to see how that is impacted? It also seems paradoxical when they say dopamine helps with sleep when we also know that the antidepressant drug Bupropion, a dopamine reuptake inhibitor, can cause insomnia. I also hear that some practitioners are doing blood testing to assess one's neurotransmitter or metabolite marker levels and to point to the need for supplementation. However, is this accurate if this is just a snapshot of ones levels that could fluctuate? Has research shown that levels broadly swing due to different factors such as time of day (circadian effects), recent meals and protein intake, stress levels, life events, or are blood levels more stable unless someone has something like a bipolar disorder in which case such cycling might be predicted? Should neurotransmitter blood level test results be used to base supplementation recommendations?

When is the best time of day to take it and what dose is recommended?

[@ginoperez5728]

It's good to take it early in the morning it will kick in about 2 hours later depending on the dose, so if you weight for example 100 pounds than a smaller dose like 100mgs if you weight 200 than a little higher but every body different so experiment on your self see how many mgs is good, tyrosine is strong it works almost all day so be careful, do your own research, stay healthy people 😊

[@strikemaster1]

I have graves disease (hyperthyroidism) which means I have too much iodine. IN my case should I still take this supplement?

[@Crazeefish313]

It's not from too much iodine, I've taken 100mg yes, milligrams that's 10,000x over the RDA, you'll need to be taking selenium, get it from grass fed liver or supplement with 100-200 mcg selenium for a little while. I did that to decalcify the pineal gland and it works like nothing else. Iodine is the safest mineral on the planet so many other factors cause hyperthyroidism like the ingredients in out food like MSG and seed oils.

[@strikemaster1]

@@Crazeefish313What a coincidence... I just order magnesium supplement with added selenium. Not sure of the ratio. Trust me when I say Iodine affects me like fuel to a fire mate. I can take it in small doses, but every time I eat any type of fish, especially shell fish like scallops. I am ok for that night, but after that I cant sleep for a few nights and my body over heats real bad. happens every time. But I will try the selenium and see how it goes, because I love fish normally. In the past I tried Brazil nuts high in selenium but not much improvement. Will report back in a month or so.
