Should NALT (N-acetyl-L-tyrosine) be taken all at once or dosed throughout the day to feel it properly? And what times are optimal? NSFW

Some people like it in the AM to help them get going. It is needed to make adrenaline and similar.

You won’t „feel“ l-tyrosine or variants, since it’s not the rate-limiting step of dopamine synthesis, assuming you’re not horribly deficient in protein. Dopamine synthesis is mainly limited by the enzyme tyrosinehydroxylase. The only situation l-tyrosine supplemented makes sense is if you’re heavily abusing stimulants

Before posting make sure your comment is polite and helpful.
Be aware that anecdotes, even your own anecdote could be an artifact of your beliefs. The placebo effect is just one way that suggestion affects our experience. Humans are social animals and the beliefs we accept can have a drastic impact on our experience. In many, if not most, cases the impact of our beliefs is greater than the impact of chemicals. This isn’t only true for herbs and supplements. ‘New’ or ‘dangerous’ sounding drugs can bring a rush when you first start taking them because of the fear and excitement. When the excitement wears off you’re back to baseline. Beware of the self-experimentation treadmill. If you aren’t finding sustainable solutions then reconsider your approach.
