What is L-Lysine?

L-Lysine is an essential amino acid, meaning it cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained through diet or supplementation.

It is one of the building blocks of proteins and is involved in several normal metabolic processes within the body. L-Lysine also contributes to the formation of carnitine, a compound involved in cellular energy metabolism.

L-Lysine occurs naturally in foods such as meat, fish, dairy products, legumes and grains.

What does L-Lysine do?

L-Lysine is one of the 20 amino acids required for protein synthesis. Amino acids are essential for the formation and maintenance of many structural components throughout the body.

Proteins form the basis of many tissues, including muscles, skin, hair and nails, which are largely composed of structural proteins such as keratin.

L-Lysine is therefore commonly included in food supplements as part of a balanced diet and active lifestyle.
