Hello,

I have been using l-Tyrosine for maybe a month now and am impressed with the results. I have heard conflicting advice on whether NALT (N-Acetyl l-Tyrosine) is superior, apart from potency and bio-availability, in it's effects. NALT seems very expensive so would I benefit at all if I consumed smaller doses of NALT compared to larger doses l-Tyrosine?

Many thanks,
Piata.

Speaking from personal experience, NALT does something, but not near what L-Tyrosine does.

Also, its kind of weird regarding needing "smaller doses" of it because of its bio-availability. The tablets I have for L-Tyrosine (NOW brand) are actually much smaller than the NALT tablets (Jarrow), so in the end consuming NALT feels like you're consuming more.

I do like that the jarrow NALT comes with b6 though. I've found that to get good results with L-Tyrosine I must take a b complex with it.

NALT does exactly the same as L - Tyrosine except it's water soluble and is more usually more cost effective and has a "different taste than L- tyrosine. NALT is NEVER indicated for people who prefer the word " natural" than anything else, even if it's better.
.
People who use an NALT as opposed to the levo form are out of their mind. No practice, medicine, cult or whatever criticizes what they take - because NALT is in my five best for me. IT has been for my best friend, her mom, my mom ,and my Goddaughter. for a few years. No one fights me on it - just choose NALT.

Interesting post.

Interesting perhaps because it didn't make sense, and was completely fucked. *Corrected above - I was drunk when I typed that and things don't always come across well when I type drunk, my apologies and thank you for finding it interesting. Poker and Baccarat nights at my place can sometimes lead me to venture onto cyberspace and type drunken thoughts, which is always a double-edged sword for me. Retract my first interesting statement in lieu of my corrections above.

NALT never did anything to me, even combined with B6 and folic acid. GO for l-tyrosine, 1g.

I know *bows head in shame*

Go for NALT though, people - unless you find L-tyrosine in a bargain bin and want to include it your protein shakes or something.

NALT is the stronger (more potent) version than L-tryosine. They metabolize through the same pathways and bind to the same receptors.

i just bought 120 caps for 33$ from an online store located near me, they are 300mg + folic acid + b6, hope they are goood.

Hope so too, because I bought a kilo of powder of it last year for around that price and it'll last me for years, if not a decade.

haha perhaps mine was on the more expensive side but they are already made tablets and will last for at least a couple of months so i shouldn't worry. i will be doing some testing with it and see how it goes!

Good job brother, let us know, and when I collect the damning evidence against "sir broccoli"; you'll hear from me again in this thread, but for now, I have bigger barracudas to fry.
