L-Lysine, 1000 mg, 60 Tablets - Webber Naturals

Lysine seems to prevent the Herpes virus from growing.

Lysine is an amino acid (a building block of protein). Unlike some other amino acids, the human body cannot make lysine; therefore it must be eaten in the diet. Sources of lysine include meat, fish, dairy, eggs, and some plants such as soy and other legumes. 

Lysine is an essential amino acid needed for the maintenance of good health. It also helps in the formation of collagen to support hair, skin, nails, and bones.

People use lysine for cold sores (herpes labialis). They also use it for athletic performance, diabetes, and many other uses, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.

What is Lysine?

L-lysine is an essential amino acid required for human health, but is not able to be manufactured by the body. This amino acid is needed for a variety of important physiological functions, but is best known for its ability to inhibit the herpes simplex virus that causes cold sores, reducing overall recurrence, frequency, severity, and healing time.

L-lysine is critical for proper growth and development, including the production of collagen for healthy skin and nails, connective tissues, blood vessels, bones, and teeth. Poor lysine status can result in fatigue, dizziness, loss of appetite, slow growth, and anemia. Vegetarians and vegans who do not consume legumes regularly have a higher risk of poor lysine status. Athletes and burn patients typically require higher levels of this essential amino acid to maintain good health.

Each tablet of L-Lysine from Webber Naturals provides a 1000 mg dose, to be taken 1–3 times daily, to help reduce recurrence of cold sores and support other critical physiological processes. This formula contains non-GMO ingredients, is free of major allergens such as gluten, dairy and egg, and is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Dosage:

Take 2 tablets 1 to 3 times daily. Each tablet contains 1000 mg of L-Lysine (hydrochloride).
