> One question for DA man. You mentioned that my focus problem can be dued to NE and not to dopamine but NE is a precursor of Dopamine. What I'm trying to say is: taking tyrosine am I also increasing dopamine levels ?

L-tyrosine -(crosses BBB)-> L-DOPA -> dopamine -> norepinephrine -> epinephrineI would recommend staying away from caffiene entirely. It's a crap stimulant in my book because it is a cerebral vasoconstictor and diuretic.
