As an essential amino acid, L-Lysine plays a crucial role in collagen formation, contributing to the body's most abundant protein. This product contains the USP grade of lysine, ensuring superior quality compared to cheaper, animal feed-grade alternatives. Lamberts L-Lysine 500mg is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, catering to various dietary requirements.

Individuals require 2-3g of lysine daily, with the amino acid found predominantly in animal-based food sources like meat. However, vegetables and vegetable proteins are not particularly high in lysine, potentially leading to lower intake levels for vegetarians and vegans. Lamberts L-Lysine 500mg addresses this gap, supporting optimal lysine consumption.

Lysine also has a significant impact on iron bioavailability and demonstrates an antagonistic relationship with arginine to suppress viral replication. Additionally, studies indicate that lysine may help reduce anxiety and stress by regulating serotonin levels in both the intestinal tract and the amygdala, a brain structure involved in emotional regulation.

This dietary supplement comes in a pack of 120 tablets, offering a convenient option for those looking to increase their lysine intake. Lamberts L-Lysine 500mg is particularly recommended for individuals experiencing cold sores, as it appears to inhibit the replication of the Herpes Simplex (Type I) virus.

In conclusion, Lamberts L-Lysine 500mg is an essential supplement for those needing additional lysine in their diet, particularly vegetarians and vegans, while also supporting collagen formation, iron absorption, and emotional wellbeing.
