Application & Function
L-Tyrosine is an important essential amino acid for nutrition, it plays a crucial role in the metabolism, growth, and development of humans and animals, and is widely used in industries such as food, feed, medicine, and chemical engineering. It has the effects and functions of stimulating the central nervous system, improving cognitive function, enhancing memory, improving attention, and promoting melanin synthesis.
1. Excitement of the central nervous system
After metabolism in the body, L-tyrosine is converted into neurotransmitters such as dopamine, which can regulate neural activity in the brain and thus stimulate the central nervous system.
2. Improve cognitive function
Supplementing L-tyrosine can help increase dopamine levels in the brain, improve nerve conduction efficiency, and ultimately enhance cognitive function.
3. Enhance memory
L-Tyrosine can promote the synthesis of acetylcholine, which is an important neurotransmitter involved in memory formation. Therefore, consuming sufficient tyrosine is beneficial for improving memory.
4. Improve attention
L-Tyrosine can improve the speed and accuracy of information processing in the brain by affecting signal transmission in the nervous system, thereby enhancing attention.
5. Promote melanin synthesis
L-Tyrosine is an important amino acid that can be converted into melanin precursor under ultraviolet radiation, promoting the production of more melanin in the skin to achieve whitening effects.
