BRI Nutrition L-Lysine 180 Servings Per Bottle - Super 500mg Veggie Capsules

Taking L-Lysine has stopped me from getting cold sores and helped lesson my shingle break out. Lysine is an amino acid that cuts the occurrence, severity, and duration of the frequent herpes outbreak. It is great stuff!!! I havent had a cold sore in over a year now and I used to get them every other month or so. Now when I feel a tingle, I take L-Lysine for a few days and the cold sores never break out!! I like to eat foods with lots of L-arginine (Like chicken, nuts, chocolate and cheese) which feeds the herpes virus. So when I eat a lot of those foods, I take one L-Lysine to even me out.

Muy amable excelente cervicio

Ive always heard that if you take Lysine every day it can help stop cold sores before they start, so Id been wanting to try it. I get them occasionally. My aunt takes it every day and says she doesnt get them any more. But I couldnt bring myself to do it, because every brand I tried the pills were HUGE and pretty angular, and I nearly choked every time Id try to swallow them. So it was a choice between feeling like I was risking my life and just putting up with cold sores. THESE I can take! Theyre capsules, and fairly normal-sized, and are all very rounded and go down easy! Im taking them every day now. I cant say anything about the results as of yet, since its only been a week, but Im hopeful. If you have been looking for a smaller size lysine supplement, try this, because I suck at taking pills.

The 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.

I do carry the virus that produces cold sores, HSV1. I havent had an actual sore in years, but sometimes, whether a psychosomatic reaction to worrying about it, or real, feel a tingle here or there around my mouth or on my lips. I eat a vegetable-based diet, so if Im not careful sometimes I dont get enough L-Lysine, and these are good to have around for those days. I did read on the Mayo Clinic website that it can be dangerous to have too much of this in supplement form, especially as it interacts with certain medications, so look into that yourself and be careful.

My background is, Im 72, 58 200 lbs. and work out each day (heavy) in the gym and then play three hours of Pickleball. Im also a SUP (standup paddleboard) racer that competes in 50 + category. Each morning AFTER breakfast I take a lot of supplements which include: Aspirin, Cinnamon, Amino HD 1000 BCAA, L-Glutamine, L-Arginine, Lysine, L-Carnitine, Taurine, Tribulus, Creatine Monohydrate and Prenatal DHA. I have noticed when I dont take my supplements I feel lethargic. I cant truthfully say which ONE supplement keeps me in a good frame of mind or makes me stronger, but this combination works for me.

Decent price not a giant pill, easier to swallow than most pills of this kind

Es un complemento con el magnesio, vitamina C, Lisina omega 3 para proteger el corazón y mejorar la tensión

Definitely 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.

I need L-lysine for when I feel a fever blister start coming on. Before this product I could not find it in a small enough size to swallow. Finally, now I can take L-lysine without fear of choking. I assume it will work like any other L-lysine Ive taken - Im always amazed that an amino acid can stave off a fever blister! I only take it when I feel a fever blister starting and will take about 3 capsules twice a day. It seems to work.
