Phenylalanine - Feed Ingredient

Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid required for protein synthesis in horses and other animals. It cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained through the diet. In feed formulations, phenylalanine may be present naturally in protein-containing ingredients or added in its pure form to balance amino acid profiles.

Phenylalanine serves as a precursor to the amino acid tyrosine, which in turn is used to synthesize neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. It is also involved in the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for coloration in skin and hair.

The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Phenylalanine as an ingredient.
