NOW Foods – L-Lysine
Supports Healthy Connective Tissue
Supports Calcium Absorption
L-Lysine is an essential amino acid, which means that it cannot be manufactured by the body and must be obtained through the diet or by supplementation. Lysine is necessary for the production of all protein in the body including hormones, enzymes, and antibodies, as well as carnitine and collagen, which is the structural protein forming all connective tissue such as skin, tendon, and bone. L-Lysine also plays a major role in calcium absorption. Some evidence suggests that L-Lysine supplementation may help to support a healthy immune system as well as proper cardiovascular function.

friend recommended it and since taking it I haven’t had so many colds. I take it first thing in the morning. My immune system was very sensitive to colds and flu and you noticed a noticeable decrease in the number of illnesses. Surrounded by people with colds and even covid. 1 tablet 1000mg, large size 250 tablets have plenty of stock. I love the NOW brand, the big bottle, the packaging is easy to read, easy to swallow although chunky. Slow release, no taste. I am very satisfied with L-Lysine and recommend it. I have a friend who, as soon as she stops using it, has cold sores. Made such a difference in my life.

This is the best quality lysine I can find. I like that it’s 1000mg and I take it twice a day after meals with vitamin c. Some might find its huge size hard to swallow, but I would prefer this to the smaller 500mg tablets because I want to maximize the benefits of lysine in just one capsule.

I’ve already written the review on the 500mg one, so I’ll leave it below: L-lysine is an extremely important essential amino acid found in human bodies when it comes to fighting viruses as well as neural health. I ordered this supplement for my grandmother (she has Parkinson’s disease) and after a few weeks of taking it, she already started to feel better and her skin condition improved a lot. We both covet this one a lot, thanks PS don’t forget to ✨thumbzzz upp✨ if you like my review

use it as a supplement for my hair. it keeps it thick. I have slight hair loss on the left side of my hairline and the protein in it keeps it fuller. the size of the tablet is huge, so it may be difficult for some to swallow. I love that Ecosupplements supplements are much more affordable and the quality is top notch.

Amazing and cheap lysine supplement for those who need this amino acid in their diet, be careful if you are on a diet high in arginine as they share common pathways in the body. High levels of arginine can reduce lysine levels in the body and vice versa. The pills are normal size and tasteless. No animal products included.

It is a precursor to carnitine, which is needed for fat metabolism and energy production. necessary for the maintenance of the structural proteins collagen and elastin, which form all connective tissues such as skin, tendons and bones and can contribute to a healthy and quality immune system and cardiovascular function. It has benefits for those with herpes problems.

I’m so glad I found this product! I was looking for something to help me with my chronic canker sores and this definitely saved my life. The tablets are easy to take and the effects are almost immediate. I would definitely recommend it to others with the same condition.

started taking this supplement to boost my energy on training days and to benefit the immune system. So far I haven’t noticed much of an energy boost, but I definitely wake up feeling refreshed in the morning. The tablet size is large but easy to take with water. The tablets are tasteless but have a slight smell of milk.

I’m about halfway through the bottle. I take it when I’m sick, very tired or when I’ve had a lot of alcohol to drink. The size is larger and comes with a good bit, so it’s a good amount for the price you pay. The pills are a bit bigger. It is made up of only lysine, which is good to take if you’ve consumed too much arginine.

As I’ve noticed, people take L-Lysine primarily for the purpose of building muscle. But in my case, this supplement became a panacea to fight herpes virus 1st type. Whenever my immune system was weak, I used to get terrible cold blisters on my face. I heard that L-Lysine works against it. And that’s the case ! I was taking 1 pill outside of food and eliminated arginine from my diet. First of all, it helps fight existing herpes (it no longer appears). Second, it works for a long term result. Of the minuses I must mention a huge size of the tablets.
