L-Lysine 500mg 100tabs - Now Foods

L-Lysine 500mg NOW® is a dietary supplement that participates in collagen synthesis.

L-Lysine is an essential amino acid, meaning the body cannot produce it naturally and must obtain it through ingestion.
L-Lysine consumption is associated with improved calcium absorption and decreased urinary excretion. Calcium plays a structural role, forming part of the bone (38%), and contributes to maintaining bone density and, consequently, bone strength, thus preventing osteoporosis.

L-Lysine is a precursor to hydroxyproline, which is used in collagen synthesis. This protein is part of the composition of supporting organs such as skin, bones, tendons, and cartilage. It not only provides structure, firmness, and elasticity to the skin, but also contributes to the integrity of muscles, ligaments, and tendons, improving their health. It also helps increase bone density, modulates bone formation, and mineralizes bone mass. In the joints, it regulates the differentiation of chondrocytes (cells that make up articular cartilage), inhibits their loss, maintains their functionality, and prevents cartilage loss.

This amino acid has a beneficial effect on reducing herpes virus replication because, when ingested, it competitively inhibits the absorption of arginine, an amino acid used by the virus to form its capsid (its structure), thus reducing recurrence, severity, and recovery time from herpes. It is also traditionally used to control infections, as it promotes antibody synthesis and stimulates the immune system.

L-Lysine is a precursor to carnitine, a potent cardiovascular tonic that helps increase cardiac output by improving myocardial contraction, ATP (energy) production, and the heart's endurance during physical exercise. L-Carnitine plays an important role in fatty acid metabolism, transporting fatty acids to the mitochondria for beta-oxidation, subsequently stimulating the production of energy from adipose tissue.

L-Lysine makes up the majority of the muscle, acting as an anti-catabolic agent, that is, it reduces the percentage and speed at which protein degradation occurs, facilitating both recovery and the building of muscle mass.

Thus, NOW® L-Lysine is a dietary supplement that participates in collagen synthesis, combats herpes, promotes the maintenance of bone mass, stimulates the synthesis of antibodies, contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass and enhances heart health.
