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.

When I’m stressed, I’m prone to cold sores, so I’m never without L-Lysine and this essential oil blend I buy from a local pharmacy (they mix it there). It’s basically all the smelliest essential oils you can think of in one little bottle, but it works. It dries very quickly: eucalyptus, lavender, thyme, tea tree oil and mint. Also dries out my lips pretty badly, but I’m going to take this on the cold sores any day. Don’t go mixing your own essential oils as I think it could be dangerous or toxic, but I feel good about getting it from the pharmacy! 🙂

It is a very excellent product against cold sores and strengthening your immune system. Since my husband has been using it, he has never had cold sores. This summer he didn’t swallow it for 1 month and the cold sores came back so the product proves its strength. The capsules are easy to swallow and tasteless. We live in the Netherlands and order our products through I Herb because of the excellent service.

love the NOW brand and have seen positive effects from this supplement which I have been taking for several months. In the heightened anxiety created by today’s news, I feel more and more anxious and less and less able to relax. Also, I’m an older woman who needs to build muscle since I stopped going to the gym (at the start of the pandemic) and did all my workouts at home. I now recover quickly from workouts and sleep much better again. I monitor my sleep with my fitness tracker and tend to sleep longer and deeper. In fact, I sleep through the night and wake up well rested. I worked many years in management and my sleep also started to suffer with all the long and stressful hours that came with my job. Honestly, I handle work stress much better than today’s news stress. Fortunately, this supplement helps me in both cases since I have also added Ashwagandha to my daily regimen.

love this brand of lysine, I prefer the capsules as I think they are better absorbed and easier to take. I take 3 a day and the bottle lasts a long time. I believe it helps my EBV as I feel much better. I will definitely buy again as I think it’s great value too!

Many people and doctors say that lysine is good for human organisms which I choose to get from Now brand because I like a lot of supplements and products for this brand. I am confident that their product has good quality and good ingredient. Capsule size is correct, easy to swallow compared to many other brands

Consistent, efficient, reliable. Lysine is an amino acid that calms nerve endings – sensitive skin, hives, shingles, even environmental irritants like plants (poison ivy) or minor burns; anything that irritates the skin will be helped by this supplement. NOW brands are always pure and well packaged, and I rely on them.

This is another great product from NOW Food and I ordered it with glycine and collagen powder. Glycine and lysine are needed to aid in the absorption of collagen powder. This is beneficial for improving the health of skin, hair and nails and helps you look younger! Great quality at a great price and lots of health benefits! Not much taste for the products

I love this supplement, I take one a day, then if I get a cold sore tingle, I take 4, three times a day and most of the time it stops the cold sore from forming . If I’m too late when I notice it massively reduces the size of the blister and speeds up the whole healing process.

It is an essential amino acid, which means it is not produced by the body, but must be obtained from food or supplements. Lack of lysine in the human body leads to loss of appetite, excessive hair loss, fatigue, mood swings, reproductive disorders, nausea, dizziness, stress, stunted growth , anemia. Kidney stones are possible. Along with other essential amino acids, lysine is involved in almost every process that takes place in the body and it is extremely important for a person to avoid its deficiency. No taste! Medium size and lots of benefits!

have been using lysine for years. I just launched this new brand, but I have other NOW brand supplements that work well. The price is affordable which helps me a lot. These are quality products. Ingredients do not include things people are allergic to… like gluten. Good size too. Lasts a good while.
