Anyone can describe me their experiences with BOTH and tell me if you felt there was a difference between the two for you .. ?
Also, is Phenylalanine a good match to Wellbutrin ?
Thanks you,
Marty

Wellbutrin is an AD with energizing effects. However it can cause irritibility in the beginning. It's an AD, so one can't take or not at will.
Phenylalanine is an amino acid found naturally in the body. From personal experience, I found it agitating, but that was many years ago. I know its rep for being energizing, but don't remember if low doses would do that. Handle with extreme care.
As for being a "match", you'll have to be more specific. I would be wary about taking both at once. You could get very agitated or anxious.

> ____________________________You hit it on the money,l-phen,tyrosine,and dlpa are natural amino acids,when u supplment them you are mega dosing and this can quickly cause an imbalance of all aminos.
Most amino stacking is done by weight lifters as mega dosing certain ones can help possably loose fat as well as build muscle.Again i just want to warn you when u mega dose a amino it is no longer natural,it is the same as a drug,use caution.
Good luck .
