In reply to DL-Phenylalanine working more than psych meds, posted by Stargazer2 on June 26, 2019, at 0:02:26
I've never taken DL-Phenylalanine on it's own but I've gone long periods drinking 3 to 5 water bottles of crystal lite a day. The main ingredient in that is Aspartame which breaks down (in part) to L-Phenylalanine.
I take Marplan (MAOi) and hadn't realized there aas a potential interaction originally. However when I stopped drinking it I feel like my mood dropped. I started a thread about whether or not it helped here: http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/20140328/msgs/1063549.html
That's not specifically what you're asking about but....
Glad you're feeling a bit better regardless of the reasons!
