Product description
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, which can support good health. In addition, L-Lysine supports a healthy immune system helping to fight cold sores. Capsule delivery provides faster, more complete absorption. Our NOW natural and organic Supplements are an effective way to ensure you and your loved ones are getting essential vitamins, minerals and nutrients for daily optimal health. Since 2000, the NOW brand has been supporting Canadians with a mission to provide products that empower people to lead healthier lives. 70% of the NOW products in Canada are made or packaged in Guelph, Ontario, employing hundreds of Canadians from coast to coast. NOW performs 31,000 quality tests every month to ensure you get the highest quality supplements at the best price possible. Our promise - what is on the label, is precisely what is in the bottle.

- Reviewed in Canada on February 28, 2025Verified PurchasePlease note that I am not an expert but I got these because people recommended them for mouth sores or preventing them (for me it's before my period). I started using these about 6 months ago and have noticed a huge difference in helping prevent mouth sores. Even if I do get them from time to time they are a lot smaller and less painful than before.

- Reviewed in Canada on February 18, 2024Verified PurchaseGood
- Reviewed in Canada on November 9, 2024Verified PurchaseThese are part of my essentials in my cat pantry, a lot cheaper then the one branded for pets, I do about 1/2 caps per day for adult cats (can go up to a full capsule once a day) My cat was sneezing and caughing a bit (otherwise no behaviour change) gave him that on his food for about a week to be sure and it was gone (the symptoms diminished in like 2 days) my vet recommanded it and I saw a difference but I know some people say it doesn't do anything but I saw results!
