Free-form L-tyrosine at 750 mg per capsule in a 90-count bottle. This single-amino-acid product has between-meal directions and specific thyroid, melanoma and medication precautions.
Tyrosine is used by the body to produce several neurotransmitters and the pigment melanin. The formula supplies 750 mg of free-form L-tyrosine in each capsule, with 90 capsules in the package.
NOW recommends one capsule one to three times daily, preferably between meals. The single-ingredient format keeps the tyrosine amount separate from a multi-ingredient workout blend. The warning specifically advises physician guidance for people with hyperthyroidism or melanoma and for those using MAO inhibitors or other mood-altering medicines. Those restrictions accompany the product's stated amino-acid amount.
