L-lysine is one of the 9 essential amino acids that must be obtained through diet or supplements, as our bodies have not evolved the ability to produce it on their own.
L-lysine is a building block of protein, essential in the production of carnitine, a nutrient responsible for converting fatty acids into energy, plays an essential role in the formation of collagen, an important substance for bones, connective tissues, including skin, tendons and cartilage needed for tissue growth and repair. Lack of L-lysine can lead to difficulty concentrating, fatigue and irritability.
Lysine plays an important role in the absorption of calcium, the building of muscle proteins, recovery from injuries, and the production of the body's hormones, enzymes and antibodies, maintaining the correct nitrogen balance in the body and maintaining muscle mass.
