L-Lysine Powder 500g Pharmaceutical Grade (Additive Free)

This product works. I use it regularly for health issues and it is effective.

Purchased because I could no longer swallow the huge tablets. I found the easiest way to take it and mask the flavour was to add the powder to about 50-100 ml of tepid water and give it a good stir to dissolve, then add a sharp juice, Cranberry works exceptionally well, (also tried tomato, and orange/carrot/turmeric with great results) up to 100-125ml and stir again, and drink immediately. I would definitely buy this again.

I use this in small amounts to help my Burmese cat with his cat flu flares, it does seem to help take the symptoms down if I can get him to eat it. It's extremely bitter to taste (I know I've tried some) and is so strong it makes any food taste a little funky. I tend to give him a small amount on a tiny rolled up piece of ham, he'll only eat it that way. I have to say though it does help when I can get him to eat it. A great product, in such a huge pot even for human consumption it'd last a long time. Fab product overall. One star down for the taste, although I don't think that can be helped it's just because it's such a pure product.

I'm not using this to supplement my diet as I eat enough beans, cheese and yoghurt already. However, my cat Bennie has been diagnosed with Feline Calicivirus (FCV) which is a sort of cat flu that recurs. Many cats carry this virus and just spread it around and never fall sick but as my cat was a mistreated RSPCA rescue cat his ability to fight FCV off was compromised. So Lysine to the rescue! Giving 1/4 of a teaspoon (about 1/2 gram) acts as a protein building block not a drug and *assists* Bennie in fighting of the effects of the Calicivirus or Herpes virus when it attacks. Bennie's symptoms are sneezing, runny eyes - typical 'common cold' symptoms in a human. Lysine helps Bennie trick the virus into self-destructing by using this L-lysine instead of its preferred protein Arginine. Since starting this his early symptoms disappear almost immediately. Was it the Lysine or one of the other homeopathic remedies (including Vitamin C) we use? I don't know but I'm not going to stop using this just to find out. It's only necessary when we spot the tell-tale signs of an infection and this powder is reasonably bland enough to hide in his food. Given the small dosage for a cat this pack will last for some time. Any excess is excreted out so it harmless if not required. Good value and perfectly safe and Bennie say 'Great'!

I have been taking it for years now. I know it works because I don’t get many cold sores, I stop taking lysine and within a week, a new cold sores appears.

I was advised to give L-lysine to my cat for his "flare up symptoms". I took him from the streets 5 months ago and have never managed to fully sort out his eye gunk, itching and sneezing. Within a few days, the inflammation round his eyes has dramatically reduced, as has his sneezing and scratching. Amazing stuff and will hopefully continue to improve my boys health. It was also very quickly delivered. Thank you so much!🙂

I added it to food and it changes the food flavour quite drastically. Also, it’s now powdered

Ok, big canister for the money
