AOR L-Lysine, 150 Vegetable Capsules

Fights Cold Sores and Boosts Immunity

• An essential amino acid
• Supports the body's muscle, bone and energy
• Provides a clinically effective dose

One of the nine essential amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own, L-lysine must be obtained by dietary means. Those most likely to suffer from deficiency are vegetarians who do not consume enough legumes or individuals who consume a diet high in grain-based baked goods. Grains are high in lysine, but lysine cannot be absorbed when it is caramelized (caramelization involves the binding of lysine with sugar and is the process that causes baked goods to turn brown). A deficiency of L-lysine has been found to cause tiredness, lack of concentration, irritability, hair loss, kidney stones, anemia and reproductive problems.

L-L ysine supplementation has proven helpful to alleviate herpes simplex infections and cold sores. Lysine seems to inhibit replication of the virus that causes the visible outbreaks. It also supports immunity in general.
