Directions for Preparation and Use
 

The amount of TYR 2 needed to supplement total daily protein requirements (other than tyrosine and phenylalanine) depends on age, body weight and individual tolerance for tyrosine and phenylalanine. The dose of TYR 2 must be determined by a physician or dietitian and adjusted periodically. Diets with TYR 2 must contain adequate amounts of energy, essential fatty acids, tyrosine and phenylalanine to meet daily requirements.

The daily amount required should be divided into 3 to 5 single portions and can be taken mixed with calculated amounts of other food (e.g. beverages, fruit mousse). For accuracy, TYR 2 should be weighed on a gram scale.
