Lysine is an essential amino acid that is beneficial for body functions. This means that it is vital for our health but that our bodies cannot produce it. This means that getting enough from our diets and/or supplements is paramount.
Amino acids are like the building blocks of protein. Lysine is important for proper growth, and is responsible for converting fatty acids into energy and helping to lower cholesterol.
