Guest guest Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 Could you please tell me: #1. If all three amino acids, namely, tyrosine, phenylalanine and tryptophan, be taken each day in case of a mixed picture of the type of depression? #2. The issue of " Empty stomach " : All the three amino acids have to be taken empty stomach. If we also take the thyroid supplement thyroxin, then that also has to be taken empty stomach. In this regard: (i) Will 15 minutes before breakfast or lunch or dinner will do or it has to be 30 minutes before? (ii) Tryptophan will be for evening and night, but will thyroxin, tyrosine and phenylalanine compete against each other for absorption if all these three are taken say 15 minutes before breakfast? Or each of these three have to be separated out from each other by 15 or 30 minutes? (iii) If something has to be taken after meals, howmany hours should it be after the meals so as to take it " empty stomach " ? Is it two hours or three? Thanks in anticipation of answer. Ratan.
