> It is? How? Phillipa

Ascorbic acid a cofactor (helps out) in the synthesis of norepinephrine from dopamine via the enzyme dopamine beta hydroxylase. In other words, Vitamin C facilitates the conversion of DA to NE.

It is also involved in the synthesis and catabolism (breakdown) of tyrosine, a precursor to dopamine and noreprineprhine. For one, it plays a role in the breakdown of tyrosine by helping out the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase.

etc.
