Natural L-Phenylalanine from Switzerland

L-phenylalanine is on the one hand needed for muscle building and is further needed for the building of other amino acids and the production of hormones. Thus, it forms the precursor for various hormones and the amino acid tyrosine, from which in turn various catecholamines, hormones and neurotransmitters are formed.

L-Phenylalanine

A vital messenger substance for the body

Would you like to supplement your diet with useful nutrients? You have the desire to perform even in stressful situations? You simply want to do something good for yourself? Learn more about the amino acid L-phenylalanine in the following text and enrich your knowledge.

What is L-phenylalanine?

The amino acid L-phenylalanine belongs to the essential amino acids, i.e. those that are vital and maintain the body’s functions. In contrast to the non-essential amino acids, the essential ones must be supplied with food, since the human body cannot produce or synthesize them itself.

Amino acids are the building blocks of our body’s proteins. These so-called proteins contribute to the maintenance and increase of muscle mass. In addition, they are also important for our skeleton, as proteins supply the bones and thus contribute to their normal maintenance.

What sources contain L-phenylalanine?

L-phenylalanine is supplied to the human organism mainly with the intake of animal foods, such as meat, milk, cheese and eggs. In addition to the supply in food, dietary supplements exist that contain L-phenylalanine as a nutrient. The offer of food supplements ranges from capsules to loose powders dissolved in waters. Supplements in the form of protein shakes and multifunctional preparations have become an indispensable part of a modern diet.

The focus here is primarily on people with a vegan and vegetarian diet. These groups are dependent on good, high-quality nutritional supplements, as they do not have the resources of animal foods at their disposal. Do you follow a vegan or vegetarian diet? Take a look at our Kingnature products Amino Vida and Amino Eight in our online store.

How does L-Phenylalanine work in the body?

Phenylalanine has been known since 1879 and has been continuously researched in connection with other amino acids and proteins ever since. Effects attributed to phenylalanine, first and foremost the alleviation of depression, have not yet been demonstrated by reliable data from clinical studies. These are based on the fact that L-phenylalanine is considered a precursor for dopamine and norepinephrine in the body. This connection leads to the conclusion that it has a mood-enhancing effect.

L-phenylalanine also plays a not insignificant role in the formation of the thyroid hormone thyroxine. Without the supply of this important amino acid, the organism cannot hydroxylate tyrosine, a biochemical process that involves the docking of one or more hydroxyl groups to a molecule. Tyrosine is ultimately turned into the hormone thyroxine by the body’s own processes.

It is also recognized that L-phenylalanine exerts an influence on hormone control. For example, the hormone cholecystokinin is mentioned. This in turn has a positive effect on the feeling of satiety. In this way, L-phenylalanine indirectly helps with healthy weight reduction in the context of diets aimed at lowering the body fat percentage.

To exploit the full potential that L-phenylalanine offers the body, it is recommended to take vitamins B3, B6 and C. Vitamin B6 in particular contributes to normal energy metabolism and normal functioning of the nervous system. It also reduces tiredness and fatigue. The Kingnature products Amino Vida and Amino Eight are the first choice for you here. Kingnature stands for unique dietary supplements of excellent quality.

L-Phenylalanine is also well suited for athletes who want to support their demanding training sessions with micronutrients. The same applies to mental or e-sports enthusiasts who aim for strong memory performance. With Vitality Shot, especially people with high physical and mental stress get their money’s worth.
