Description

What is DL Phenylalanine?

DL Phenylalanine, also known as DLPA, contains different forms of the essential amino acid Phenylalanine. Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid, which means the body can only get it from external sources such as supplements or foods. Phenylalanine comes in three forms, L-Phenylalanine, D-Phenylalanine, and DL Phenylalanine. Phenylalanine is a precursor for tyrosine, norepinephrine, epinephrine and melanin. The “L” form is a natural substance normally found in protein rich foods such as meat, nuts, and dairy. L-Phenylalanine is also thought to be helpful in supporting mood. The “D” form of D-Phenylalanine is made synthetically and is believed to influence how the nervous system and brain interpret and respond to pain in the body. DL Phenylalanine may benefit mood issues as well as and physical discomforts and pain.*

DL Phenylalanine Benefits and Uses

  • May help support pain management*
  • May help promote feelings of well being*
  • May help support energy*
  • May help promote cognitive function*

DL Phenylalanine Effects and Research

There is still research being conducted on DL Phenylalanine so the answer to the question, ‘what is DL Phenylalanine good for?’ can vary from person to person. Since DL Phenylalanine is an electrically neutral amino acid, it is able to cross the blood-brain barrier. Some believe that DL Phenylalanine for pain management support works by blocking enkephalinase, an enzyme that breaks down enkephalins.*

A study conducted in Germany in 1978 found 60% of test subjects had a healthier emotional outlook after supplementing with DL Phenylalanine. 20% reported feelings of well being but to a lesser degree than the other subjects. Studies have reported that DL Phenylalanine may elevate mood and may promote energy and support cognitive function. An open study reported that 30% of the tested subjects reported improved pain management support after using DL Phenylalanine daily for 2 weeks. DL Phenylalanine sleep benefits were shown in some small trials but further research is needed to verify these findings.

DL-Phenylalanine Dosage

As a dietary supplement, take 500mg of DL-Phenylalanine Powder once daily.

    Excellent product, as worth all the ND products I've used.

    I bought this stuff roughly a year ago, when the FDA started prohibiting sale of phenylethylamine (PEA). I put it in my 50 gallon tote full of ND supplements and encapsulating supplies, then forgot about it. About a month ago, I took inventory of my supplements, saw the 250 grams of powder, and figured I would finally break the seal to find out what DL-Phenylalanine is all about. Here's my experience taking 500mg once a day thus far: Day #2: Notable elevation in both mood and energy. I have 4 herniated and one ruptured disc, so I'm hoping to realize pain relief soon. Day# 5: My sleep since day #2 has been better than I have had since I started taking n-acetyl-cysteine. I have been sleeping so well, in fact, that my back pain has been slightly worse. Day 7: Turmeric with piperine was a huge relief for my back; ksm-66 and L-theanine helped to extinguish and keep away the muscle spasms and tightness that always accompany a sore back. My mood have steadily climbed higher; sometimes I just sit, on he lawn with my German Shepherd and enjoy the feeling of being alive. Day 10: My energy and mood are excellent; I am getting restful, sound sleep 5-6 nights a week; no remarkable pain relief has been realized. I am still taking turmeric and piperine, so there is the possibility any benefits are being masked. Day 15: I am very happy with this supplement; I wish I had not waited a year to try it. My energy and mood are maintaining a steady level and I have noticed that I feel more limber when I am physically active. I am still taking turmeric and piperine, but they have never had this effect, so it must be from the DL-Phenylalanine or a synergy in the combination. Day 22: Still feeling great. No Renaissance changes in a week, but compared to a month ago, I feel mentally better and have higher, more consistent energy levels. I have read that for pain relief, some people take up to 3,000mg a day, so I think I will up the dose to 750 or 1,000mg starting tomorrow. If I experience anything notable, I will update my review, but this is already another easy 5-star product from ND!

    ND is consistently excellent,

    Quality is excellent and when you order it seems as if you get an email only moments later that your order has shipped. I am Canadian but I don't order anywhere else and ND is who I recommend 100 percent of the time for noots and noot related products.

    Dl phen

    I have been taking this as an addition to my low doses of adderall for over a year. As an easy powder to take when levels feel off it is fast acting and the longevity does dissipate with tolerance but still a product I will always continue to use.

    Good quality

    Very good quality powder. I also want to add that 1/4 teaspoon = 500 mg; 1/2 tsp = 1,000 mg. I couldn't find any info on dosage before buying so I went to Target and bought a digital scale.

    Found my flow with it.

    Originally purchased it with the reductive stance that "I'll take this and it'll convert to tyrosine which will then help produce dopamine and norepinephrine." Didn't realize I needed something that upregulates tyrosine hydroxylase for that. This isn't medical advice but ended up finding a resource discussing "runner's high". They suggested this mix of items 30 minutes before running or exercise: Phenylalanine, Blueberries (pterostilbene, increase anadamide), Maca (FAAH inhibitor), PEA (increase anandamide and endocannabinoid activity), olive leaf extract (MAO-B inhibition). And it's been fantastic.
