- 92% of the 1,680 products that print an amount of tyrosine list more than its 39 mg of L-tyrosine (filed by NIH under tyrosine) (median 500 mg).
The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
