Product Details
General Description |
L-Lysine, an essential amino acid, is crucial for human health and serves as a precursor to many proteins. As an α-amino acid, it contains an α-amino group, an α-carboxylic acid group, and a lysyl side chain, classifying it as a basic, charged, aliphatic amino acid. Encoded by the codons AAA and AAG, Lysine is found predominantly in animal products and plays a vital role in the formation of proteins. |
Function | This amino acid is essential for the growth and maintenance of body tissues, particularly contributing to the formation of collagen, which is essential for skin and joint health. Lysine also plays a significant role in calcium absorption, hormone production, and the formation of antibodies and enzymes. Moreover, it has been researched for its potential in supporting the immune system and in the treatment of herpes simplex infections. |
Uses | Commonly present in protein-rich foods like meat, fish, dairy products, and legumes, L-Lysine is also available as a dietary supplement. Its importance in various bodily functions underscores its essential role in maintaining overall health and well-being. |
