The Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety (VKM) has, at the request of the Norwegian Food Safety Authority, assessed the risk of specified doses of L-tyrosine in food supplements. VKM concludes that:
• In adults (≥18 years), the specified doses of 1250, 1500, 1750, and 2000 mg/day Ltyrosine in food supplements may represent a risk of adverse health effects.
• In adolescents (14 to<18 years), the specified doses of 1250, 1500, 1750, and 2000 mg/day L-tyrosine in food supplements may represent a risk of adverse health effects.
• In children (10 to <14 years), the specified doses of 1250, 1500, 1750, and 2000 mg/day L-tyrosine in food supplements may represent a risk of adverse health effects
