Description

Phenylalanine is an amino acid used by the body to produce protein and other molecules such as Tyrosine, Epinephrine, Norepinephrine, and Dopamine. 1

It is found in high protein foods such as eggs, dairy, meat, and soy. 1

May be useful for depression and certain skin disorders such as Vitiligo. 1

It exists in two forms — L-phenylalanine and D-phenylalanine. They’re nearly identical but have slightly different molecular structures. 1
