L-Tyrosine & Power Drive

[Deleted]

Eric,

Do you think L-Tyrosine can be helpful for a Para dominent person? Also, is there a problem with using Power Drive

Ingredients
3,000 mg L-Tyrosine
1,000 mg Phoshatidylcholine
200 mg DMAE Bitartrate

One final thing. Christian Thibaudeau recomends using Power Drive after a training session. Any thoughts on how that might help recovery?

Thanks

Eric has discussed power drive before asp.elitefts.com/qa/default.asp?qid=75624&tid=

I have used a similar product by myprotein.co.uk called Zoned, which has phos serine instead of phos choline, which is more effective for fast oxidisers / parasympathetics, and acetyl-l-tyrosine, which is a far more potent form of tyrosine, and ginkgo biloba, which i can attest in my expereince is an amazing herb for focusing. It also contains DMAE, but its not the focal point of the product. Unfortunately, it does also contain a small amount of sucralose.

Thanks Rob.

This is slightly embarrassing because the Doug in the link provided is me.

I’ll look for a US source of the acetyl-l-tyrosine

Rob, i'm interested in knowing why PS is better for paras and Fast ox. Can you elaborate? Thanks!

[robwhite]

PS is more effective for regulating cortisol output than phos choline.

According to Dr Paul Eck's theories of metabolic typing / imbalances, fast oxidation and parasympathetic imbalances are the result of chronic stress, a significant effect of which is chronically elevated cortisol (eventually leading to adrenal fatigue), and PS is better at resolving this than phos choline.
