Lysine Essential Amino Acid for Bones and Calcium
from:/a>
e
Lysine is one of numerous amino acids that the body needs for
growth and tissue repair. It is classified as one of the nine
"essential" amino acids because you need to get it from outside
sources such as foods or supplements--in other words the body
can't make it on its own.
Lysine is required for growth and bone development in children,
assists in calcium absorption and maintaining the correct
nitrogen balance in the body and maintaining lean body mass.
Furthermore it is needed to produce antibodies, hormones,
enzymes, collagen formation as well as repair of tissue.
Older people could also require more lysine, as one study found
older men required more of this nutrient than younger men.
L-lysine's popularity as a nutritional supplement arose as a
result of some studies suggesting that the amino acid may
decrease the recurrence rate of some infected with herpes
simplex virus.
Health Benefits of

lysine-rich foods for lowering cholesterol, improving athletic
performance, and enhancing recovery after surgery.
The most promising application of lysine is its use in managing
and preventing painful and unsightly herpes sores caused by the
herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Lysine Research
A number of clinical studies have found that lysine is
useful in preventing and sometimes shortening outbreaks of
herpes simplex infections. A few studies have found no effect.
In vitro and animal studies have also found evidence of lysine's
anti-herpetic effects.
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial of
oral lysine, the treatment group received 1000 mg of lysine
three times daily (3000 mg daily) for six months. During that
period, the treated subjects had an average of 2.4 fewer HSV
infections, and their symptoms were significantly less severe
and healing times significantly reduced. lysine was found to
decrease the recurrence rate of HSV in non-immunocompromised
subjects. In this study, the 1248 mg dosage did not shorten
healing time.
One more study suggesting that supplemental lysine can both
enhance intestinal absorption and improve renal conservation of
absorbed calcium and that it might thus be helpful in
osteoporosis. Further research is needed. Food sources of Lysine
Good sources of

Cheese
Eggs
Lime Beans
Potatoes
Milk
Meat
Brewer's Yeast
Cautions for
Supplement
Proteins such as casein, which are high in L-lysine
relative to L-arginine, are associated with elevated cholesterol
levels. Those with hypercholesterolemia who are interested in
taking supplemental L-lysine should be aware of this. Pregnant
women and nursing mothers should only consider using
supplemental L-lysine if their diets are low in this amino acid.
They should avoid supplemental L-lysine for other reasons.
