You might as well buy the racemic (DL) form, as the dextro isomer, if it does anything at all, could only help. Everyone says that it slows the breakdown of endorphins, but I'd like to see some hard evidence of that effect in man, or even in vitro with human tissue. The fact is that endorphins are broken down by a whole slew of peptidases, and not one or two enzymes like many neurotransmitters. Anyone have any good information on this?
