I had no problem with 300 mg of Tyro, then I doubled it in hopes of increasing dopamine. 600 mg was enough to send my BP through the roof. Unfortunately, I had been also doing Isometrics and Chi Kung so I can't blame the Tyro with objective confidence. Non the less, it was a frightful experience and I vowed never to take a double dose of Tyro again.
Found that stretching exercises were the antidote (the polar opposite of long duration Isometrics). Still, had I not been in decent shape (low carb), I wonder how much worse my cardiovascular sys would have fared... Thus, with Tyro (IMHO) a larger dose is NOT necessarily better. I think such a warning on the label would be wise. Lawyers await teeth knashing...
Great web site - once again thank you. I definitely will have to give this to someone who can take it.
I got carried away with all the people that were taking it and felt like a million dollars.
You know how it is with we souls on Thyroid meds who feel so fatigued.

Thank you. I checked too. Pity the girl didn't do it before she bought and paid for it - right!!
I will find a dear friend who might need it and one that doesn't have high bp
Once again thank you for your information.

Hi Cathy -
I just googled: tyrosine + "high blood pressure".
Just about all the headlines say tyrosine is a no-no with hbp (even the sights trying to sell tyrosine).
Go to: www.biblelife.org/blood.htm
About 1/4 to 1/3 down the page, read "Avoid Harmful Food Additives".
Unfortunately, most pick-me-ups increase both bp and heart rate.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news...
