L-Lysine Monohydrochloride
L-lysine is an essential amino acid that is important for many biological functions, such as immunity, energy production, collagen support and muscle growth. Lysine also supports bodybuilding and muscle growth and helps maintain carnitine levels, an important factor in energy and aging. Lysine supports bone health by ensuring the proper absorption of calcium and helping to form collagen that makes up bone cartilage and connective tissues.
One of the most common uses for supplemental L-lysine is for preventing cold sores caused by the Herpes Simplex virus. However, there is no recent data to support that doses below 3g/day are insufficient for prevention of reoccurrence.

Ingredient Benefits
An essential amino acid
L-lysine is one of the nine essential amino acids that our body requires but cannot make itself. Since it is naturally abundant in high protein foods such as meat, eggs, beans and legumes, those most likely to suffer from deficiency are vegetarians or vegans who consume a diet low in legumes and high in grain-based foods.
Supports a healthy functioning immune system
L-lysine is a small but mighty amino acid that works to encourage healthy immune cell activity. It supports antibodies known as IgG, which help identify and protect against all threats.
Emerging Evidence
Supplementation with lysine has been shown to reduce mood imbalances and even cortisol levels in those who consume low amounts of lysine.
