According to a pharmacist I spoke with, phenylalanine basically is a stimulant much like caffeine. This makes me wonder if the "caffeine free/sugar free" sodas are being a bit (or a lot) deceptive? If people think they're avoiding the stimulant, caffeine, and drink these, then, perhaps they're being mislead? Migraine headaches were my reason for eliminating caffeine and chocolate from my diet. While, technically, chocolate doesn't have "caffeine" in it, it does contain Methylzanthine WHICH IS THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN CAFFEINE! After eliminating caffeine and chocolate, there were NO MORE MIGRAINES, going on 30 years now. So stimulants were the source of my headaches and Phenylalanine "can act as a stimulant".

Recently, I've noticed some info on the net that suggests that Phenylalanine is helpful to people with Shingles! Consider then - Shingles is a virus which affects the nervous system, derived from the Chicken Pox, and STRESS is what activates the virus. Physicians say that rest is the only way to recover. (Antiviral drugs "might shorten severity and length of symptoms", but they still don't kill out the virus. Caffeine and other stimulants are to be avoided! So, can anyone tell me WHY WOULD ANYONE SUGGEST THAT PHENYLALANINE COULD HELP!!!

Don't know if any of this applies to your situation, but it might be worth considering.

Why does Pepsi use phenylalanine?

Phenylalanine is not used in soda pop.However, diet soda pop may contain the artificial sweetener aspartame . This compound, sold under the trade names "Equal" and "NutraSweet", is metabolized by the body into several chemical byproducts including phenylalanine.The breakdown problems phenylketonurics have with protein and the attendant build up of phenylalanine in the body also occurs with the ingestion of aspartame, although to a lesser degree. Accordingly, all products in Australia, the U.S. and Canada that contain aspartame must be labeled: "Phenylketonurics: Contains phenylalanine." In the UK, foods containing aspartame must carry ingredient panels that refer to the presence of "aspartame or E951" and they must be labeled with a warning "Contains a source of phenylalanine." These warnings are specifically placed to aid individuals who suffer from PKU so that they can avoid such foods.
