Amino Acids

I just realised that the iodine supplement that I take includes the following amino acids:

Tyrosine 500mg
Cystine hydrochloride 25 mg
Methione 25 mg
Taurine 25mg

In addition, I also take a separate L-Tyrosine supplement 500 mg.


Is this ok? I know to avoid glutathione but am I correct in assuming that these other amino acids should be fine???

Hi, Topaz. I take Tyrosine also.

For a long time, I took 1000 MG. I tolerated it fine, but then I developed a heart flutter.

My nutritionist told me that excess Tyrosine can cause flutter in some patients and advised me to cut back to 500 MG.

I did, and the flutter went away.

My system is absurdly sensitive, so my experience may be uncommon, but I thought I'd mention it.
