Milaivanov: Tyrosine's supposed cognitive benefits seem overhyped considering this. What kind of genetic marker were they looking at to link tyrosine levels specifically to lifespan?
Adamivanov: finally something that's actually science-based instead of just some bro on Instagram touting the benefits of tyrosine
Cleo: I still don't get why people take tyrosine supplements when there are so many other nutrients that've been thoroughly researched
Zoe: that's an interesting twist on the "brain-boosting" claims I've seen before - not just what you put in, but also how your body processes it might matter
June: men on tyrosine supplements should just take themselves seriously, not their ages
June: interesting that they looked at tyrosine independently like, what's the takeaway for people already taking these supplements?
Vera: not sure this study applies to people who already eat tons of meat and eggs
Echo Specter: Tyrosine's not that hard to find in protein shakes and actual food, how did this study cost 270k people and still manage to miss the obvious?
Solar Reaper: tyrosine's the building block of neurotransmitters, but longevity isn't just about neural function, right?
Solar Warden: tyrosine is pretty commonly found in protein-rich foods so I'm not sure what's the appeal of taking it as a supplement anyway
Noah: Tyrosine supplements everywhere are going to get sued or something
Ashen Vector: that's not what i'd expect from all those health studies on tyrosine, usually they focus on cognitive benefits not lifespan
