    It is a waste for two reasons:

    1) It has two nice big hydrophylic hydroxyl groups that would stop it from passing through the blood-brain barrier

    2) It would be deactivated almost imediately by the monoamine oxidase enzyme

    If it did what its supposed to do you could become dependant on it...also excess dopamine is the primary cause of schizophrenia ...but anyways excercise is supposed to increase dopamine levels...also sex...

    Have you read Lyle McDonalds book on bromocriptine? He talks a lot about using Bromo to effect dopamine receptors to trick the body into not realizing ti is starving during a caloric defecit... so it's fat saving mechanisms can't ruin a cutting diet... its a really good read - the guy himself kind of a prick - but his book is good. I am using Bromo for cutting right now... I have a log in the Member's Cycle results forum...

    Almost all good stimulants give extra dopamine. There are however two major types of stimulants:
    -those that increase the amount of dopamine released (like amphetamine)
    - those which block dopamine reuptake (like methylphenidate, aka 'Rit****')

    No I have never used either to supplement my diet. I really need to know why you want more dopamine before I can continue.

    There is a stimulant that increases circulating dopamine without supressing appetite, but it is kind of costly and requires a perscription

    why do i want more dopamine?
    dopamine is said to enhances mental function, mood and even libido by increasing brain levels of the focus and drive neurotransmitter. this sounds great on paper, but how does it feel in real life? arent you curious?

    Well dopamine IS a neurotransmitter it doesnt enhance the "focus and drive nuero"...but I believe you need prescription drugs to enhance them significantly...

    ADD or ADHD Is the lack of Dopamine to the brain.

    Prescription drugs such as Rit**** and Adderall will increase the Dopamine production in your brain allowing you to focus over a period of time.

    Such states as Anxiety will also trigger the brain to increase the production of Dopamine

    Peace

    Interestingly, there are dozens of stimulants that can replace amphetamine in drug-discrimination tests and give the mental focus that both it and methylphenidate are used for. none of these are yet illegal because they have not been abused, so one could possibly aquire them from a chemical manufacturer but the cost of a custom synthessi would be high. You would walk away with atleast 50 grams of it.

    This is my last comment on the subject as it is starting to get into the area of rec. drugs

    You could Try Strattera, Centella Asiatica (also called Gotu Kola), Green Oats (also called Avena sativa) or Panax Ginseng (a Chinese herb).
    Vit C is also known to help with mental focus. There is also a new drug called "Focul" but I dont know much about it. A red Bull can do the trick sometimes for me ;-)

    the first time I took n-acety-l-tyrosine

    it felt amazing , drug like
    I noticed it only hit mehard once in a while ,
    while at other times it just gives your a wakefull feeling

    its plays crucial role in nuerotransmitter formation
