Biovea DLPA – DL-Phenylalanine 750mg, Pack of 60 caps

What is DL-Phenylalanine? 

DL-PHENYLALANINE is a pain-relieving supplement that contains two forms of the amino acid, phenylalanine. The “L” form is a natural substance found in protein-rich foods; it is believed to support mood-enhancing chemicals in the brain, such as dopamine and norepinephrine. The “D” form of phenylalanine is produced synthetically in a laboratory; it appears to block a nervous system enzyme that amplifies pain signals. In short, DL-PHENYLALANINE may help prevent the breakdown of natural chemicals in the brain.

DL-PHENYLALANINE combines “L” and “D” forms of phenylalanine to help relieve mild depression and physical discomfort.

What does DL-PHENYLALANINE do?

DL-PHENYLALANINE is often used to improve mood and alertness and/or relieve pain. L-Phenylalanine is a precursor to neurotransmitters that can boost your mood, mental energy, and state of awareness. The D-Phenylalanine form inhibits the breakdown of natural painkillers, endorphins, which may be beneficial for some people with chronic pain without the side effects of prescription medications. DL-PHENYLALANINE can work very well with other brain and mood-enhancing supplements such as: St. John's wort, SAMe, or 5-HTP.

DL-PHENYLALANINE may help with the following:

Relieves feelings of depression: Several clinical studies have examined the effects of DL-PHENYLALANINE supplements on mood. For example: Phenylalanine is converted into another amino acid called tyrosine, which is then converted into three brain chemicals called L-dopa, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. According to research, DL-phenylalanine has been used to help relieve symptoms of depression, which is associated with increased adrenaline levels.

Helps relieve chronic pain: While research is still ongoing, there is some evidence that DL-phenylalanine may help relieve certain types of chronic pain, including muscle pain, premenstrual discomfort, and persistent inflammation associated with arthritis by inhibiting a pain-inducing protein called enkephalinase.

Improves concentration: Some research suggests that people who experience low levels of amino acids like phenylalanine may have difficulty concentrating. It is believed that DL-PHENYLALANINE may help balance chemicals in the brain, which may lead to improved concentration, including those with ADHD.

Method of use: Take 1 to 3 capsules daily.
