It's hard to say?: I'm not sure what you're asking? What is a sign of what? I'll add that stuff at the health food store is not all safe or effective. Just because something is natural, organic or herbal doesn't make it safe. Many very dangerous substances are plant based. There are no studies i know of which prove that l-tyrosine is really effective for anything. You should see a dr for a diagnosis to start.
