Phenylalanine

                     This is indispensable to the production of hormone adrenaline; to the production of the thyroid secretion and the hair and skin pigment, melanin. It is useful in weight control because of its effect on the thyroid. Its use before meals suppresses the appetite to a large extent. It is necessary for the efficient functioning of kidneys and bladder. Major source are nuts, parsley, seeds, carrots and tomatoes. An important recently discovered restorative use of phenylalanine is its capacity to overcome most conditions of lethargy through stimulation of adrenaline.
