Tyrosine is an important amino acid. Like other amino acids, tyrosine
is utilized as a building block, in this case for important brain
chemicals. Tyrosine is needed to make epinephrine, norepinephrine,
serotonin and dopamine. Since these chemicals help regulate mood, a
deficiency in tyrosine has been associated with depression.
Tyrosine
also is involved in making melanin, the pigment responsible for hair
and skin color. The adrenal, thyroid and pituitary glands, which
produce and regulate hormones, also rely on tyrosine for proper
functioning. Research has shown that tyrosine functions as an
adaptogen. Adaptogens help the body cope with stress and return it to a
normal balance.
Symptoms of tyrosine deficiency can also include low blood pressure, low body temperature and restless legs.
