>Levo-dihydoxy-phenylalanine (L-dopa), the amino acid precursor

>(brain catecholamine neurochemistry).
I do not believe so!
Show me the reference(s)!
>Phenylalanine, I think, is better known as Nutra Sweet.
Again, incorrect! Nutra sweet hydrolyzes (breaks
down) into two different amino
acids, one of which is phenylalanine.
>Has there ever been a discussion about this artificial sweetener in PD
diet--good or bad?
You might be able to retrieve much discussion on
this from the archives,
but do not believe the alarmists without
authoritative evidence.
