NOW L-lysine 500 mg, 250 Capsules

Guess its working. Dont see visible results.

I think it would be nice if the capsules had a color, even 1 side. Since it seems all the supplements are clear capsules hard to portion them into a pill box and knowing that youve got all you need...lysine looks like the magnesium/potassium and the biotin as well, and even the brain stuff.

This works very well for us, keeps cold sores from developing or helps so much if they do. I am prone to shingles so taking this product everyday helps keep that under control. I gave 4 stars only because I ordered a bottle on Oct. 28 and have not received it, was not in the box with other items. Havent been successful in getting another sent so Im re-ordering as we dont want to be without it.

Ive been taking L-lysine once a day along with my vitamins for years now. These work great for keeping cold sores at bay, healing chapped lips, and helping me stay healthy. I really like this brand of L-lysine, it works very well. If Im out in the sun too long and my lips start feeling chapped I take three before bed and chapped lips are gone by morning. If I start feeling a cold sore coming in I take a few before bed and more often than not it will never show, or if it does I take one three times a day and it shortens the severity of the sore and heals it faster. Nice size easy open bottle too.

I 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.

Whatever youre taking Lysine for, these 500 mg CAPSULES by NOW are much smoother and easier to swallow then the 1000 mg. TABLETS. Just take two of these if you want 1000 mg dose; if not, take one. Also these work well for opening the capsule and sprinkling the powder into applesauce or fruit juice if you or a loved one--or pet--cant swallow capsules or tablets. Lysine works well for so many things, especially for preventing Shingles outbreaks, cold sores, or Herpes outbreaks.

I trust NOW products and have quite a few of their supplements. Using this for the maintenance of collagen and elastin.

Ordered these on recommendation from a client. She’s a personal trainer and heavily into healthy choices. Helps to boost your immune system and is essential for healthy skin. Easy to take, no stomach issues. If you are prone to cold sores, this is a natural way to recover from outbreaks.

Now 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.

I was turned onto Lysine-L supplements by my hygienist and its been life-changing. Basically never get them anymore after suffering from them my whole life. Make sure to get this capsule version--there are tablets out there but they dont go down as easily. Ive taken two capsules a day for a few years and have had no adverse side effects or changes to my annual blood work.
