Optimize
healthy skin and lips
L-lysine
is one of the eight essential amino acids that
must be obtained from the diet. Certain foods
have high levels of this amino acid – such as
meat, fish, milk, cheese, eggs, and certain
vegetables such as beans and potatoes.
Those who may not
normally eat from these food groups, such as
vegetarians, or those with low levels of lysine,
may benefit from supplemental l-lysine.
Preliminary research demonstrates that l-lysine
can help boost the body's immune response, to
promote healthy skin and lips.
L-lysine also helps
maintain and repair connective tissue and is
essential for the production of collagen, the
'glue' that constitutes the matrix of healthy
bone, cartilage, and connective tissue.
Maintaining adequate levels of l-lysine can
promote healthy healing and enhance cellular
health.
L-lysine is necessary
to help maintain a healthy nitrogen balance. And
l-lysine acts as a chelating agent, enhancing
the process by which minerals are changed into
their more digestible form. By binding with
calcium and other minerals, l-lysine can help
optimize the body's absorption of these
essential minerals.
The amino acid
l-lysine can:
- Promote healthy skin
and lips by enhancing the immune system
- Support the
formation of collagen and the repair of
tissue
- Enhance mineral
absorption*
Directions:
Take 1 capsule up to two times per day,
preferably on an empty stomach, or follow the
advice of your health care professional.
NOTE:
People who need supplemental lysine should avoid
taking arginine supplements, and avoid foods
high in arginine.
