L-Tyrosine for Addiction Recovery
Non-essential amino acid and precursor to dopamine and noradrenaline via the enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase; most consistent evidence is for preserving cognitive performance under acute stress, sleep loss, or cold exposure rather than baseline mood.
The connection
Support for reducing substance dependence, managing cravings, and restoring neurotransmitter balance during recovery.
Also known as: L-Tyrosine, N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine
