Greater than one weekI love that this came so much faster than I expected and I love the quality of the product. I get a cold sore when I get stressed and this definitely stops it in its tracks. I feel that little tingle and down a few of these and it stops. When I know I am going to be in a stressful situation for a while I just take it every morning and every evening. This is a great product at a very good price. It also helps with skin tone so if you are having problems with that, try this. Good company, very responsive.

Greater than one weekAll I can say about this product is LOVE, LOVE AND LOVE!! I’m on my second bottle and I will continue to re-order. Lysine is so important for me as I’m someone who in the past has suffered from cold sores, I’ve had this problem since grade school. As an adult I realized they can be triggered by stress and even if I’m sick. For me personally they’ve helped SO MUCH! I think the key is consistency!! Hope this helps someone else, I take 1 every morning & 1 before bed. :)

> 3 dayI started using these lysine tablets to aid in keeping arteries from plaque buildup. I read about this through the Linus Pauling books. I take the lysine along with vitamin C. A combined supplement is sold but it is very expensive and it’s just as easy to take these tablets along with the vitamin C tablets. I like that these come in 500 mg Jose. It does say to take on an empty stomach so I leave the bottle by my bed and in the morning when I wake up I take two capsules. By the time I shower and get dressed and go down for breakfast I am able to eat without waiting. Lysine also helps to prevent from frequent cold sores.

> 3 dayDefinitely easier than those horse pills to swallow. Getting cold sores sucks. I never took the recommended Lysine dose though because I was too scared to swollow the pills. These are smaller and easier. But the one thing Id say is they contain air. So if your like me and put water in your mouth first. There is air in the capsule so it like floats on the water and its hard bc it like floats around for a bit. Other than that its fine but its a bit uncomfortable. Also Im allergic to shellfish and fish and its processed in the same facility so that doesnt make me feel super comfortable.

> 3 dayI like that I can split the larger dose into two pills, or take a smaller dose with just one. Lysine often comes in huge pills that are hard to swallow.

> 3 dayAn amazing product! I use it if I get a cold sore on my lip. It literally cuts the heal time in half! I have used other l-lysine suppliments and this one is by far the best!

19-11-2024So far so good. This pill is easy to swallow and I haven’t had any issues with it so far. Seems to be working for me. The only issue I have is with the bottle. I feel that it should have a locked cap for child safety instead of twist cap. Very easy for someone to open it up. although children should not be around pills it’s better to be safe than sorry. It’s important to have the correct lock lid so kids are not able to open it under any circumstance. (Still worth the purchase and happy I did) seems to be a great purchase!!

> 3 dayFinally, a calcium pill I can swallow! Just a few days ago, one of my OLD calcium tablets stuck in my throat so completely that I began to pass out. I was afraid for my life and ended up on the floor. I threw those tablets in my compost barrel and searched for something BETTER. They are here today. Not only are they SOFT they are also smaller with just as much calcium as the old horse pills had.

21-11-2024The product itself is fine. The company selling these is fine. People should know, however, that Lysine can have side effects. The following is from Medical News Today: There are reports of an association between lysine supplements and kidney problems, and studies in animals suggest that lysine supplements may increase the risk of gallstones and higher cholesterol. My LDL cholesterol reading in 2021 was 24 points higher than a previous test in 2019 after taking Lysine. There could certainly be other things contributing to the elevation of my LDL level, but as I researched side effects of the new supplements I began since the previous cholesterol test the information on Lysine and cholesterol came up in a search. I will have to stop taking it.
