NOW L-lysine 500 mg, 250 Capsules

This maybe a miracle! Ive had cold sores for years and I hate them. I tried otc and prescribed ointments, but they still last for a week and look gross. Im totally sel-conscious. Now that I have kids, Ive become overwhelmed trying to make sure I dont infect them. This led me to explore any alternative I could find on the internet. I tried many things, but L-lysine is the first product that should immediate and remarkable improvements. Now as soon as I feel the tingle, I double the dose. Sores barely become noticeable and last for a day it two!!! Its amazing. I cannot recommend this product enough!

It boosts my immune system

I have recurrent aphthous stomatitis triggered by tomatoes and this has made me never have a trigger again (when I do not forget). I take one of these every morning and have not had a trigger when I remember. I occasionally forget, eat something with tomatoes (its hard to avoid them), and will get a trigger. When I do have an outbreak I take 3 of these a day and it seems to decrease the time I have an outbreak. I hope these reaches someone with RAS well, it took me 19 years to find a solution.

I bought this for a friend who had cold sores and he took some at the beginning of an outbreak and he says it went away in 3 days before blowing up to uncontrollable proportions. This is great. I have seen his bad days adn they are pretty bad. The situation usually doesnt go away for like 3 or 4 weeks but with this it went away in 3-5 days max. Since taking these he has also felt more hope and started a new diet. You have to take away l-arginine from your diet some way to help with the cold sores. So he has reduced this , you cant eliminate it completely because the arginine is an essential amino acid and your body needs it. The lysine, decreases arginine Ive read so it helps keep the cold sores at bay. Im glad it helped my friend, he was going through some tough times because of it. Try it, you never know. He has reported no side effects.

Ok I love when this happens , even though it’s very rare but I feel this product working on a day 3!! I read so many reviews where people say they took stronger dose so I did the same thing ( this is not a recommendation what so ever !! I am not a doctor or anything ) but I also took one extra pill on top of a suggested dose and on a day 3, the skin condition I had was half way gone!! To everyone reading this , get this amazing thing !!! Even just as an everyday supplement , it is magical . Just google it and see how powerful it is . I hate that I’m just now hearing about it!!

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.

This helps so much with fighting viruses. I cant tell if it helps with colds or not, but anything in the herpes family, it helps a lot. I cant have nuts or the CMV (cytomegalovirus, similar to mono) comes back, but if I counter-balance with this lysine, Im fine. It also has helped in treating shingles, which is unbelievably painful, and in preventing outbreaks. Someone gave me biscotti with only a few walnuts in it, and boom, shingles starting. Since using these with ANY arginine-rich foods, Ive been able to avoid getting any more. If anyone else is looking for shingles help, or anything in the herpes family, here is what has helped me the very most: 1. Lysine to compensate for arginine in foods. I use this brand and its perfect. 2. Durhams bee propolis supplement 3 times a day during an outbreak (but only if youre not allergic to bee stings). Or the queens delight, which contains propolis. 3. Vitamin C (I use this same brand in 1,000mg time release tablets) combined with green or black tea. Vitamin C on its own does not help. Tea on its own may or may not help. But when you combine the two, they help a LOT. If you feel the tingling of an outbreak looming, if you do enough tea & C quickly enough, the lesion will never even form! 4. Durhams wonder salve stops lesions from spreading and reduces pain and itching on existing lesions. 5. Vitamin C serum - yes the same kind people use for wrinkles and anti aging - apply this directly to the lesion. I may stop using the wonder salve, as the vitamin C serum seems to work faster. I had an especially stubborn lesion on my ankle that was not responding to the propolis salve (wonder salve), so on a whim, I tried the vitamin C serum I normally use on my face to prevent wrinkles. That stubborn lesion/scar had been itching and burning for weeks after the lesion appeared healed. The C serum cleared it the rest of the way in a few days. I hope this information helps someone else. This particular product (Now Foods Lysine) and their time-released vitamin C are invaluable tools in my Arsenal to fight any viruses in the herpes family, all of which stay with you for life.

Im fighting with herpes on my lips and even on the nose for decades. The only remedy is Acyclovir, and lately I had to take 800 mg twice a day to stop it when Im getting sick, or treat when I missed it starting. After Ive bought L-lysine, Im taking 500 mg of it twice a day for a month now. First few days I took one pill only to see how Ill react to it. No side effects, but I felt that a cold sore healed faster. Then for several weeks I had to continue Acyclovir, but slowly decreased the dose, and now I take only one 800 mg pill occasionally, even after I had bronchitis treated with antibiotics (which guarantees cold sores after). It definitely works. A bottle is huge, 250 capsules. I have almost 200 left, it is enough for 3 more month. Ill add to this review how things will be going after another month or two. If I can get away from Acyclovir, Ill be very happy. It is damaging for joints if you have arthritis.

So far so good, I bought it to help with acne and treat it a more natural way, I was on antibiotics for years and it would work on and off. So I did my research about supplements that directly help with skin and work from the inside, Im giving this a 4/5 starts because Ive only been on it for 2 weeks and my skin as been clearling up however, I cant directly say its from l-lysine. I believe it helps with in combination with some other vitamins Im taking
