> 24 hourNow Lysine is really good and its price point is very competitive with other brands of lysine that are on the market. I have always had a good experience with Now Lysine products and I would recommend them and I would recommend their lysine product.

> 24 hourGood for your skin and immune system. If you get cold sores and such. A regimen of l-lysine is a must. I love this brand, as soon as I feel the tingle of a cold sore, I raise my dose and usually never get one, while also using a lysine based lip balm. Zinc and generally eating healthy and other good supplements for the immune system.

> 24 hourAnother excellent product from Now. I use their Niacin, Arginine/ Ornithine amino combo, and many other supplements. I am very pleased with this supplement. It is hard to find the branch chains together in high mg. I prefer to buy the separately for that reason. This product contains 500 mg of L-Lysine. Lysine is an amino acid that our bodies cant produce but that is essential for human health.L-lysine is important for proper growth and it supports other amino acids in converting fatty acids into energy and helping to decrease bad cholesterol. Some scientific studies indicate that lysine aids in calcium absorption and it is important to maintain healthy connective tissue. Lysine is especially good for athletes and is thought to help improve endurance and recovery. Many report that it has helped them with problems associated with osteoporosis. It is also recommended by many for the prevention and control of cold sores. I use this to try and increase my natural levels of HGH. I feel younger and have more energy while taking this product. I always receive high quality products form NOW, and I really trust this brand the most.

> 24 hourOk I love when this happens , even though it’s very rare but I feel this product working on a day 3!! I read so many reviews where people say they took stronger dose so I did the same thing ( this is not a recommendation what so ever !! I am not a doctor or anything ) but I also took one extra pill on top of a suggested dose and on a day 3, the skin condition I had was half way gone!! To everyone reading this , get this amazing thing !!! Even just as an everyday supplement , it is magical . Just google it and see how powerful it is . I hate that I’m just now hearing about it!!

> 24 hourI have taken 1000 mg of NOW L-Lysine capsules ever since my accident on Sept. 2012. I am a left handed person and was hit from behind by a kid who was not paying attention to my car stopped at the intersection. The tendon in my back was so badly damaged that I was forced to use my right hand for 7 months (that was no easy feat)! I was going to my chiropractor every day and also working with obvious limitations. I like to heal naturally, if possible, so I did some research online and was encouraged to try taking L-Lysine to help me. I like the NOW brand of supplements and take several of them daily, so I ordered them from Amazon (just ordered more because my dbf is now taking them). I credit these capsules (along with the hard work of my chiropractor) with my speedy recovery. My tendon has healed back up and my left hand is back in charge! I still take it every day and will continue to take it. I did not suffer any side effects from it whatsoever - it just helped my body to heal at a faster rate.

> 24 hourI was hoping that taking L-Lysine religiously would prevent cold sores eruptions 100% but alas, it hasnt. At least not yet. I typically get a cold sore on my lower lip about every 3 months or so and Ive found that treating it (early and often) with Abreva does wonders about 50% of the time, does nothing about 30% of the time and 20% of the time I find that the best the Abreva does is make me chase the cold sore around my lip until it finds just the right spot to erupt and then, BAM, I get a lip-mutating cold sore that makes me feel like the Elephant Man for 7-10 days. Good news: Its been about four months since my last cold sore (thats progress, normally its about every 3) and the one that I just had didnt get nearly as big as others have in the past. Yes, I did treat it with Abreva but I also doubled my dose of L-Lysine and I cant help but think that this has helped as well. Ill keep updating as the months roll by - just in case anyones interested in whether or not this works as I build up the Lysine in my system.

> 24 hourI was sick of paying 17 bucks for the smallest tube Ive ever seen of Abreva to treat my cold sores. I needed another solution and I just searched and searched. Then this amino acid popped up and I gave it a shot. Im very glad I did. I take it ever single day. Ill take 1000 mg everyday and when days that I feel a cold sore coming or a big event Im nervous about is happening Ill take 2-3000 mg for 3 days straight. It works amazing. I would get cold sores one after the other after the other. Maybe one a month. Thats awful and it looks bad. I get maybe 3 a year now more like two and they last very very short amount of time. Now if I actually see a cold sore coming in I will using L lysine plus which is a very inexpensive cold sore medicine along with this. other than that the cold sores are so reduced since taking this that I cant recommend it enough. OH and dont buy the 1000 mg pill is like a horse pill and terrible to try to get down. Get these take two and thank me later.

> 24 hourLong story short, I’ve been taking this L-lysine for about 8-9 months only once a day and sometimes I’d skip a day when I forgot. I went to the doctor for my bloodwork a little over 4 months ago and it came back that I have high cholesterol. That’s very weird for me because we have no family history of this in my family, I’m a good weight, exercise and eat a pretty healthy and balanced diet. After researching and then calling my doctor with the news, I stopped taking L-lysine because I found that it can raise your bad cholesterol and it should only be taken 3-4 weeks MAX. It’s been a little over 4 months now and I’m happy to say that my cholesterol is now back to normal, the only change I made was I stopped taking the L-lysine supplement. I’m sure it can help people, but I do warn you to only take it for up to a month and then take a long break in between. Hopefully, no one has this happen to them and hopefully I have no permanent damage or issues later on because of it. God bless!
