Tyrosine. It’s a dopamine precursor. By itself, it mildly increases focus just enough to get non-preferred tasks started. It also makes completing tasks much more rewarding, which can start a positive feedback loop that leaves your space much more livable/less depressing.
There’s so many different variants (Amazon India), some of them are really cheap and some are really expensive, how do I pick one? While searching about this particular amino acid, I also came across something called a nootropic stack, do I have to be careful about how much capsule/tablet I should be consuming? Should I also be pairing it with some other tablet? Right now, I have a few omega-3 capsules which I do not consume regularly because it makes me gag. Should I stop with it?
Supplements suck that way, sorry. I’ve found a couple brands that work for me (Nature’s Way, Horbäach), but I’m no supplement expert. I’d try to find a mid-price option that didn’t seem too sketchy.
As for nootropic stacks and whatnot: never heard of them, although they seem interesting. I personally take 2g of tyrosine along with vitamin D and a vitamin B complex (plus a couple medical rx). I would start at 500mg-1g, and add more after a week if you felt you needed to. I have taken tyrosine with omega 3s but never regularly; I didn’t notice an interaction at the time.
