Swanson L-Lysine, 500mg Free-Form
Swanson L-Lysine 500mg Free-Form supplies the amino acid lysine in easy-to-swallow capsules. Lysine is one of the essential amino acids, which means the body cannot make it and it has to come from food or supplements.
Key features
- 500mg of L-lysine per capsule
- Free-form amino acid, not bound to other amino acids
- Single-ingredient formula
- Capsules for simple daily use
- Choice of two pot sizes
Free-form means the lysine is supplied on its own rather than as part of a larger protein, so it does not need to be broken down first. Lysine is found in protein foods such as meat, fish, dairy and beans, and many people also choose to keep a separate supply in the cupboard. The larger pot is a cost-effective option for regular users, while the smaller size is ideal if you want to try it first.
Available in pots of 100 capsules and 300 capsules.
