DL-Phenylalanine

DL-Phenylalanine is the racemic form of Phenylalanine, an essential amino acid that serves as an indispensable building block for the innumerable proteins that are produced in the body, and is thus used as a dietary supplement ingredient. Phenylalanine is also a crucial precursor to the catecholamines, dopamine and norepinephrine, which are necessary for the normal functioning of the central nervous system, including healthy mood, alertness and motivation. - Supports a Healthy Nervous System - Keeps a Lid on Appetite - Lifts Mood, Motivation and Drive
