L-Tyrosine

[gravity]

After doing some serious research on L-Tyrosine on the net I found info on some studies that say 3-9g per day is the reccomended dosage for effective relief of depression. however most L-Tyrosine product seem to only contain 500mg of the stuff which is relatively unhelpful!

However I have been taking Biotest Power Drive for the past 3 days (3g in one dose and take 1-2 doses per day) and I've found that it has helped greatly!!!

Highly reccomend this if 5-HTP doesn't have too much effect on you (it didn't for me). L-Tyrosine is a precursor to Dopamine which determines self-condidence motivation and drive (as well as sex drive) so if you are lacking in the above it might pay to give Biotest Power Drive a try. It also contains B6 which helps the L-Tyrosine cross the blood-brain barrier as well as DMAE Bitartrate and Phosphatidylcholine for increasing acetylcholine, and some versions have Ginkgo Biloba as well.

Highly reccomend this product - will post on whether the results last. Currently I am on a low dose of Rhodiola as well which I will phase out.

It tastes similar to piss mixed with dishwater however.

Gravity, why are you about to faze out rhodiola? Would you say it's been worth taking or not?

Had one dosage this morning with RR and had a great day! Very calm all day spoke confidently and was quick to think. Very very happy with progress on this front. Will keep this up. Can't believe how **** it tastes though. May be my batch as it was imported and sat on a store shelf for quite a while. Once I run out of this stuff I will switch to just L-Tyrosine I think and see how that goes.

I want to drop RR because although it did make some difference it waned off after a little while and IMO the less supplements I'm taking the better. Ideally I want to be taking nothing and still feeling good on a day to day basis but currently I need a little extra help to get me through the day and give the time and attention I need to work and loved ones.

Again - I reccomend Power Drive.

Ok effects are seriously waning. Today and yesterday confidence was lacking stress levels high and overall depression was pretty strong.
