L-lysine 500 mg, 60 capsules

L-lysine is the precursor of the amino acid carnitine

This product uses the natural L-form of lysine instead of the synthetic D-form. Physiologically, only the L-form is active. Lysine used in dietary supplements is produced by fermentation with microorganisms. Plants and microorganisms are able to synthesise lysine from the amino acid aspartic acid.

There are around 500 amino acids that occur in nature. Twenty of these amino acids serve as building blocks for protein in the human body and are called "basic amino acids". These basic amino acids can be classified into the categories "essential", "semi-essential" and "non-essential". L-lysine is one of the essential amino acids, which means the body is not able to produce it from other amino acids itself and therefore relies entirely on dietary intake to meet its daily requirement. Vegetarians and vegans may have an inadequate intake of lysine, as animal proteins are particularly rich in this amino acid.

Vitals, our new brand from 2025

We are constantly on the lookout for brands that represent our ideals: highest quality, the consistent omission of unnecessary additives such as titanium dioxide or porcine gelatin, excellent value for money and absolute reliability in delivery to us and thus to our customers.
This is very difficult because such companies are extremely rare among the mass of dietary supplement manufacturers now on the market. But we have once again managed to find one with Vitals from the Netherlands!

Address of the manufacturer: Vitals Voedingssupplementen BV, Pieter Lieftinckweg 29, 1505 HX Zaandam, Netherlands. E-mail: kundendienst@vitals.eu.
