Lysine is an essential amino acid that the body cannot produce and must obtain from foods.
It is involved, among other things, in the growth of bones, in the formation of collagen and antibodies and in the metabolism of carbohydrates.
Lysine inhibits the growth of the herpes simplex virus and can prevent the infections it causes (cold and genital herpes).

Lysine can help prevent osteoporosis by promoting the body's assimilation and retention of calcium.

According to Linus Pauling and his collaborator Mathias Rath, lysine supplementation combined with vitamin C can significantly and relatively quickly reduce atherosclerotic plaque.
This combination prevents lipoproteins (a) and (b) from accumulating on the walls of the arteries and dissolves existing plaque, gradually reintegrating it into the circulation.

Proteins, composed of single amino acids, form long-chain molecules.
The body must first break down these molecules (peptides) to facilitate the absorption of amino acids.
Solgar amino acids are always in their simplest form (unbound peptides) and can therefore be easily absorbed into the bloodstream.
