Description & FAQ
L-Lysine Performance Supplements
Our 1000mg L-lysine supplement is designed to help promote muscle growth, accelerate weight loss, reduce anxiety, and improve your well-being.
Lysine is an essential amino acid that the body cannot produce itself. A building block for proteins, it is needed for growth and the production of carnitine, the nutrient responsible for turning fatty acids into energy. Taking lysine is believed to help build muscles and lower cholesterol!
Does L-Lysine help with cold sores?
There aren’t any cures for cold sores, but studies have suggested that lysine may help to reduce the chances of a flare-up. Scientists believe that this is because lysine reduces the production of arginine, a chemical found in the body that the herpes simplex virus needs to reproduce.
Does L-Lysine help wound healing?
L-lysine helps the body to heal wounds, thanks to its ability to form collagen. Collagen is used by the body to create skin and bones. A recent 2023 study found that applying lysine ointment helped to ulcers clear more quickly than a placebo.
Is L-Lysine good for your gut health?
As an anti-inflammatory, L-lysine has been found by scientists to help regulate the lining of the stomach and intestine, which some believe helps to reduce issues such a leaky gut.
