Both isomers can be decarboxylated to PEA, but only the L-isomer can be hydroxylated to tyrosine. Furthermore, I'm pretty sure only the L-isomer is used in DNA and protein synthesis. As a result, the D-isomer may be more "bioavailable" as far as PEA production is concerned. Also, if I recall correctly, the D-isomer has a sweetish taste not shared by the L-isomer.
