Tyrosine is an essential amino acid that has the ability to pass through the blood-brain barrier.
• Tyrosine is a precursor of thyroxine, catecholamines, and the most important human pigment, melanin.
• It plays an important role in the function of the adrenal glands, the pituitary gland, and the thyroid gland.
• Tyrosine is not found in large quantities in the body because it is metabolized at a fast rate
