Phenylethylamine or Phenethylamine (PEA) is a natural monoamine alkaloid, trace amine, and also the name of a class of chemicals with many members well known for psychoactive drug and stimulant effects. Studies suggest that phenylethylamine functions as a neuromodulator or neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It is biosynthesized from the amino acid phenylalanine by enzymatic decarboxylation. Phenethylamine is found in many other organisms and foods such as chocolate. Phenethylamine, similar to amphetamine in its action, releases norepinephrine and dopamine. Abnormally low concentrations of endogenous phenethylamine are found in those suffering from attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and often in clinical depression.
