L-Lysine is an essential amino acid that is required to produce all proteins in the body, including structural proteins like elastin and collagen for healthy skin, ligaments, muscles, tendons, muscle, joints, and bone. As a pre-cursor to the amino acid L-carnitine, it assists in fat metabolism and energy production by the mitochondria and Kreb’s cycle.

L-lysine is best known for supporting a healthy immune system and inhibiting the replication of the herpes simplex virus, which helps prevent and reduce the recurrence of cold sores.
