Nutricost L-Lysine Powder 1KG (2.2lbs) - Pure L-Lysine, Non-GMO, Gluten Free

For feral cats with upper respiratory infection.

Great product, thank you!

Great size for value. I feel the crystals or powder was a bit thick, not powder like. Although I’m sure it does the job.

Have used this for years. Amazon & BulkSupplements = high quality, great price & fast delivery. Item works for me & is easy to consume.

Seems fine,is working for me.

My second order of Nutricost Lysine powder. Was cautious about buying such a large amount of product. Purchased to offset the high cost of feline lysine for my rescue cat. Really like the fact I can give him a higher dose for his virus which wreaks havoc on his immune system. Not to mention the mucous rooelike strands ejected from his nose getting everywhere during machine- gun sneezing attacks. All a thing of the past now and forever I hope. In fact, I’m even thinking of trying some of this supplement for myself. Very happy customer- thanks Nutricost!

I take Lysine to help control cold sores and disliked the large horse pills available. The powder is a great alternative to use a tiny amount in my coffee each morning. I dont recommend placing more than a tiny amount because it tastes horrid! The manufacturer includes a tiny plastic scooper so only use one full scoop. I made the mistake of using a quarter teaspoon in my coffee which almost made me vomit. My advice is use sparingly but daily for the best effect. I think being consistent at daily intake is more important if you are using for cold sore control.

I’m taking chemo that can cause mouth sores. When my oncologist told me she’s putting me on this new “med”, I logged onto my metastatic breast cancer Facebook group and many of the members told me to get this and my mouth will feel much better. So far, so good! I just add some to my coffee in the morning.

Absolutely the best Lysine Ive bought - Am SO happy with this! Love that its made in the USA too. I take between 1-5 grams daily in about 4 oz of lemon water. When taking 4-5 scoop dosage I can taste it. It should be taken with water and I sometimes dilute it with a little more water. Have bought many different Lysine products over the years. Sometimes the capsules were the size of horse pills. When taking 5 at a time it was not fun. I understand why many ppl cant swallow them. I tried cutting them in half once and it left a sharp edge scratching my throat. Fail. Lysine is required for the formation of collagen, a protein that acts as a scaffold and helps support and give structure to skin and bones. It promotes wound healing after surgery. Can significantly reduced blood pressure. Reduce stress. Protect against and treat cold sores. Helps the body absorb calcium, iron, and zinc. Support the immune system. Deficiency can cause symptoms of fatigue, poor concentration, irritability, nausea, red eyes, hair loss, anorexia, inhibited growth, anemia, and problems with the reproductive system. Some other uses are for preventing loss of lean muscle mass and mobility issues in older adults, relieving anxiety, preventing bone loss and osteoporosis by helping the body absorb calcium, promoting the healthy growth of skin, treating shingles, moderating blood pressure, preventing plaque buildup in arteries, supporting hair growth, building muscle in bodybuilders, helping athletes recover from intense workouts. Doses: Most people can take a daily dose of 3-5 grams (g) of lysine without any side effects. Increasing to higher dosages of 10–15 grams (10,000-15,000mg) a day may result in digestive issues, such as diarrhea, nausea, or stomach cramps. Experts believe that lysine is most effective when people take it with water on an empty stomach. A persons body weight affects how much they generally need as follows: 12 mg/kg of body weight for adults, and 44 mg/kg for children 11 to 12 years old. Lysine is an essential amino acid because the body cannot synthesize Lysine, unlike some other amino acids. As a result, people need to include it in their diet. Good Health!
