NOW L-lysine 500 mg, 250 Capsules

I need Lysine every day and this supplement works for me.

I was surprised when the Doctor suggested this supplement for small flat bumps that were appearing on my fingers. This doesnt seem like the primary use of this supplement. But one a day has kept the bumps away. Buying through Amazon has meant I could buy in quality and got me the best price.

So i tried the same brand 1000 mg tablet and have choked every time I try to take it. I will happily go back to these capsules! I can double up if I’m having an outbreak, or I can open the capsule and put it in milk if my child is having one. It doesn’t hurt. It’s wonderful. It really cuts down on fever blister and shingles healing time.

Ok I love these.. as a cold sore sufferer myself I found that taking these pills do help... but here’s another thing.. I made my own paste to put on top of my cold sore as well and it worked unbelievably. Here’s my concoction... grab one or two of the pills.. get a small medicine cup, open the pills and pour in the cup, put a few drops of tea tree oil, and a few drops of peroxide, and some sea salt... voila... works sooo good! I leave it on all night or for an hour or so when I have time. This is the only thing that has actually brought my cold sore down dramatically. Do try!! As well as taking these pills too.

I bought these for my husband after reading reviews that they can help to limit the frequency of heroe outbreaks. We are really not sure if they work or not. He takes one pill each day along with Vitamin C and echinacea to boost his immune system. He had began to have much more frequent outbreaks (during a stressful time) so I researched and read quite a few positive things about L-Lysine. It definitely didnt make matters worse so I would recommend these to anyone suffering from symptoms or outbreaks. He seems to be in a phase of much less outbreaks now and still takes the one capsule each day.

My son used to get fever blisters (a lot) that I’d treat with expensive creams and ointments. I researched so much until I found this! He’s 10 years old thus can’t swallow a pill yet so I open the capsule and put it in his morning smoothies, oatmeal, even yougurt. Now then, he still gets a tiny fever blister (not as often) even when taking L-lysine but it only last hours and it’s GONE!

My vocal therapist put me on this to strengthen the vocal chords as I have some inflammation and weak chords. Ive noticed improvement but one thing I didnt expect was this stuff actually has helped reduce my general anxiety. I am a big fan of the quality and price point of NOW Foods supplements and will continue using this. Especially after I learned the body needs this supplement but cant produce it naturally so you either need to get it from foods or through supplements. The more you know!

When I search for NOW L Lysine 1000 mg it quickly comes up with a bottle that says 1000 mg. But when you click on it, it goes to the writing and it is changed into L Lysine 500 mg. I had this on auto ship but now have cancelled that order. I tried 2 times to talk to technical assistance and thought I had this corrected. But I got caught again. I do like the 1000 as that is the dosage the doctor had recommended for us. So for the price, it is more expensive because you are getting just half of what you think you are getting. If you want 1000 mg, you must take 2 tablets instead of just one.
