Now Foods L-Lysine 1000 mg 100 Tablets
L-Lysine is an essential amino acid that must be obtained through the diet or through supplementation. Lysine is necessary for the production of all proteins in the body, and is required for the maintenance of the structural proteins collagen and elastin, which form all connective tissue such as skin, tendon, and bone. L-Lysine is also a precursor to L-carnitine, which is needed for fat metabolism and energy production. In addition, L-Lysine may help to support a healthy immune system and proper cardiovascular function.
Main functions of lysine:
- Improves calcium absorption
- Helps improve your physical performance
- It supports the immune system and has an antibacterial effect
- It fights herpes and viruses
- Strengthens the immune system
- Participates in the production of collagen

Why should athletes take extra lysine in the form of a dietary supplement?
Lysine deficiency can occur especially in athletes who train hard and intensely. This deficiency is manifested by anemia, slower wound healing, fatigue, but also by a longer recovery time after exercise. Regular intake of lysine in athletes can help increase growth hormone and improve their physical performance. Because lysine is a building block of protein, it also aids in the rapid recovery and growth of muscle mass. It also helps produce collagen, which ensures healthy cartilage and muscle tissue, which are often overworked during exercise.
