Dopamine beta-hydroxylase AKA DBH is an enzyme in the body responsible for turning our Dopamine into the more stimulating norepinephrine [1] - it is highly involved in multiple aspects of human behavior [2] including novelty-seeking [3] Curiosity [4] and other "adventurous" traits [5]. Empathy & concern for others well-being is made by DBH [6]. The more DBH - the less inclined one is to novelty and Reward - and the more natural stimulation they have...on the other hand - those homozygotes; possessing two-copies of the 'hyper-functional' DBH gene....may be more prone to Anxiety [6] and yet ironically, risky behavior [7]. Many Adults/Children diagnosed with ADHD - have mutations in the DBH-gene [8].
Glucocorticoids (Cortisol, ACTH, Stress Hormones) - these things can increase Dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activity [12] as well...however, I do not recommend Steroids solely for the purpose of increasing DBH levels!

DBH is also involved in Memory & General Cognitive Function [9].
Dopamine beta-hydroxylase plays a large role in Blood Pressure [9] Cardiovascular function [10] & also longevity/Aging [11].
5 Supplements to INCREASE Dopamine Beta-Hydroxylase
- Vitamin C + Ester-C [13]: Vitamin C is a necessary co-factor for Dopamine beta-hydroxylase...by supplementing with a strong Vitamin C + Ester-C product, or even EmergenC - you can increase Norepinephrine levels. Vitamin C plays many beneficial roles in the Brain of Humans.
- Copper Bisglycinate [14]: Copper is necessary for DBH-activity and thus norepinephrine production - it MUST be kept in balance with Zinc.
- Forskolin [15]: Forskolin acts to increase cAMP - which then triggers DBH to increase.
- Caffeine [16]: Caffeine at 200 MG per day can eventually stimulate the total blood (serum) DBH activity.
- Butea Superba Extract [17]: It blocks the breakdown of cAMP; leaving cAMP in the blood longer and stimulating DBH.
Other Methods & Vitamins to increase DBH enzyme Levels (2018)
- Supplement with L-Histidine [18] - it can increase DBH-activity and noradrenaline release by raising Histamine in the blood [19]. Histamine is 'co-localized' with norepinephrine and plays the role of its teammate/side-kick [20].
- Restore Estrogen (E2) levels; Estrogen stimulates dopamine conversion into Norepinephrine [20] - you can increase Estrogen production by increasing/optimizing Gonadal Function - for Men - you can supplement with E-Pharm Test Force II and I also recommend either taking Test-Stack 17 - or more preferably, injecting hCG [21]. HCG gets your Balls working again and also allows them to produce Estrogen [22]. Here is a discussion on Raising E2 on a well-known Bodybuilding message board; T-Nation.
- Supplement with DHEA + Pregnenolone [23] [24]: DHEA and Pregnenolone both raise Estrogen levels in Men & Women [25].
- EXERCISE! [26]: Exercise, particularly INTENSE Cardio - stimulates Dopamine-beta-hydroxylase and thus, norepinephrine production.
- COLD Exposure [27]: While it is still Winter in most places of the World - considering intentionally exposing yourself to the Cold...if you can handle it - try to walk in it - with just a Sweater or Two - this stimulates the Mind by increasing Adrenaline-production!
Drugs to Increase DBH
Things to AVOID when you Have Low Dopamine Beta-Hydroxylase/DBH
- L-Carnosine can inhibit DBH [28]. Avoid it - make sure it is not in your pre-workout or "energy formula" either...they tend to spike this simple compound in many products these days!
- Zinc supplementation is not recommended if you are trying to increase Dopamine Beta Hydroxylase. It tends to compete with Copper and speed elimination of Copper from the body.
- Don't take St.John's Wort for Depression - it blocks DBH in the Brain of Humans & Animals.
- Avoid Wheat-products; they inhibit DBH activity. Wheat also contains high levels of L-Tyrosine, however.
- Avoid WHITE FLOUR - it inhibits norepinephrine production and can cause Insulin Resistance/Diabetes [See Study on Flour & Type-2-Diabetes] use Sorghum flour instead - which raises DHT; which can then bring up Free Testosterone and finally Estradiol. It does this in part - by reducing SHBG; sex-hormone-binding Globulin. Starches and high-sugar foods should also be avoided; they wear out the Adrenal Glands.
- Avoid MOLD Exposure; mold (black mold & fusaric acid) inhibits Dopamine-beta-hydroxylase after inhalation (in humans!) and can lead to Adrenal Fatigue/Low Energy. Many people who are hooked on Cocaine or Amphetamines have Mold in their Brain which is causing a lack of normal stimulation. Mold also causes Depression - even in those with no history of Clinical Depression.
[2018] OTHER FACTS ABOUT DBH AND THE DBH GENE [2018]
- Migraine is associated with the DBH-gene [29].
- Avoid Mold Exposure; Mold blocks DBH [30].
- Homozygotes for the high-function DBH-gene are more Aggressive, particularly with Reactive Aggression [31]. Mice who 'null' or possess an Empty-Copy or deleted Copy of the DBH-gene also display less/no Aggression [32].
- Having BOTH the Warrior-Gene (MAO-L Gene) + having increased DBH-activity by Genetics increases the risk for Aggressive/Antisocial behavior; particularly impulsive and homicidal Aggression [33].
- Having BOTH the Warrior-Gene + DBH-high-function Gene leads to High Blood Pressure at a Young Age [34] [35] - and increased risk of Erectile Dysfunction in Men [36]. It can also lead to Heart Failure.
- The Warrior-Gene however can also be pro-Justice & can lead to Heroic Behavior - [37].
- Everybody has *some* Alterations in MAO-Activity at some point in their Life. [See Here Explanation on MAO Genes]
- Genghis Khan's genes may have been passed down to those who have 'Conqueror Blood' and the Maori and Finnish-peoples are often descended from Genghis Khan [38] - its hypothesized that one or many of Genghis Khans mates (Girls/Wives/Affairs) have the MAO-Warrior Gene...since 1 in 200 Men are descendants of Genghis Khan - that indicates that 1 in 200 Men - consistent with the Warrior-Gene statistics...may possess the 'Violence Gene' because of Genghis Khan. [SEE: Maori People Passed Down the Warrior-Gene]
- One man descended from Genghis Khan was surprised that it was actually his paternal roots - which were mostly English - that linked to Genghis Khan. His name is Tom Robinson.
- Autism and the DBH-Gene have a connection as well, as indicated in This-Study and this Paper.
- Higher DBH-Genotypes have an increased risk of PTSD (Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder).
- Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease and Schizophrenia all have links to the Dopamine Beta Hydroxylase gene.
- HUMAN Norepinephrine-deficiency is most commonly caused by T/T mutations in the DBH-gene loci.
- The High-Function DBH-type may be present in those with "Performance Anxiety" during Sex.
