L-Lysine - 270 Capsules

L-Lysine - 270 Capsules

Essential Amino Acid Support From a Trusted Brand

L-Lysine delivers 500 mg of free-form L-lysine HCl in each vegetarian capsule. L-lysine is an essential amino acid. Your body cannot make it, so it has to come from your diet or from supplements.

Lysine is found in protein foods such as meat, fish, eggs, dairy, beans and lentils. People who eat little animal protein, or whose diets are high in grains, may get less lysine than others. Pure Encapsulations L-Lysine gives you a simple, measured way to support your daily intake.

How L-Lysine Works in the Body

L-lysine is one of the building blocks the body uses to make proteins. It plays a role in many important processes:

• Protein building: Lysine helps the body build and repair proteins in muscles, skin and other tissues.

• Collagen formation: Lysine is needed to form collagen, the protein that gives structure to skin, gums, tendons and connective tissue.

• Calcium absorption: Lysine helps the body absorb calcium from food.

• Carnitine production: The body uses lysine to make carnitine, which helps turn fat into energy.

• Amino acid balance: Lysine and arginine use some of the same pathways in the body, and lysine helps maintain a healthy balance between the two.

Free-Form L-Lysine
