Lysine is found in food like, red meat, chicken, eggs, fish, pumpkin seeds… when taking a Lysine supplement, it should be taken in the form of L-lysine which the body is able to use effectively. Here are a few major health benefits of taking NOW Foods L-Lysine, Double Strength 1000 mg…

Cold Sores & Herpes Virus

It’s one of those unfortunate viruses that live dormant in many of us, rearing its ugly head when we are stressed, have a fever, feel sick or run down a bit, or at the start of winter. Taking L-lysine can reduce the frequency and shorten the lifespan of the cold sore breakout by preventing the virus from growing. Zinc, Selenium, Vitamin C and Vitamin D are also excellent preventative additions to reduce the severity of the virus. 500mg of L-lysine is believed to be sufficient to help clear cold sores within 6 days out of the 21-day lifespan.

Weight Loss & Muscles

Lysine assists with fat burning by blocking the cortisol hormone responsible for belly fat storage, and with the help of methionine and Vitamin C, makes L-carnitine, a chemical which turns fat into energy.

Lysine can increase muscle and prevent muscle loss because it stimulates the release of growth hormones, and because it is an amino acid, which makes proteins that build and maintain muscles.

Skin & Hair

L-Lysine in synergy with Vitamin C, plays a vital role in collagen production by giving collagen fibers the necessary final structural support (like scaffolding) and function for firmer skin, flexible joints, faster wound healing, and stronger hair. L-lysine is responsible for hair growth by protein synthesis, proteins that build stronger hair with less breakage, resulting in a fuller thicker head of hair.

Vitamins & Minerals that work well to boost the effects of L-lysine

Vitamin D, Zinc, Vitamin B12, Vitamin C, Selenium, Magnesium, Folic acid and Probiotics.

“Best” time to take L-lysine

With water on an empty stomach before bed is recommended by some medical experts.

Precautions

If you are taking Calcium supplements, avoid taking them at the same time, as L-lysine, enhances the absorption of calcium in the intestines and aids retention in the kidneys. It is therefore also not recommended for people with liver or kidney diseases.

Consider adding Vitamin K2 which directs calcium to your bones, preventing accumulation in the arteries.
