L-Lysine 1000mg - 270 Tablets - Vegan | Fairvital

Lysine HCl supplement This high-dose food supplement by Fairvital supplies you with the amino acid L-lysine. Each tablet contains 1000mg L-lysine, which is present as L-lysine hydrochloride. In this form, the amino acid is particularly well soluble in water and therefore has excellent bioavailability. L-Lysine: essential amino acid Lysine is an essential, proteinogenic amino acid. It is thus not produced by the body itself and serves to form the endogenous proteins. For this reason, supplementation is recommended, especially in the case of a low-protein diet and increased requirements. Important functions of L-lysine As a building block of proteins, lysine is an important part of structural proteins such as collagen, of enzymes, hormones, plasma proteins, blood coagulation factors and immunoglobulins. In muscles, it is part of the two proteins actin and myosin, which ensure that muscles can move. Food with L-lysine Since lysine is a building block of proteins, it is natural that it is found primarily in protein-rich foods - both plant-based and animal-based. Good sources of lysine include legumes such as soybeans, lentils and chickpeas, but oatmeal, cashew nuts and peanuts also contain high levels of the amino acid. Good animal sources of L-lysine include cheese, pork or fish. Amino acids - important building blocks Amino acids - what is that anyway? Most people know them as building blocks of proteins, which is partly true. Besides essential, semi-essential and non-essential amino acids, they are also divided into proteinogenic and non-proteinogenic amino acids. Proteinogenic amino acids serve the organism, as the name suggests, to form the endogenous proteins, which in turn are needed for numerous functions and processes. Although non-proteinogenic amino acids do not serve as building blocks for proteins, they are nevertheless precursors of important substances in the body such as L-thyroxine, the thyroid hormone. If an amino acid is essential, it means that it cannot be produced by the body itself, but has to be supplied in sufficient quantities through food or food supplements. Semi-essential means that an amino acid can be produced by the body to a certain extent. However, the amounts are usually so small that if there is an increased need, it is also a good idea to consume these amino acids with food or supplements. Non-essential means that the body can produce them in sufficient quantities itself. The prerequisite for this, however, is that the body is supplied with enough macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats and proteins) for synthesis.

L-lysine: an important building block of the organism This dietary supplement from Fairvital provides the high-dose amino acid L-lysine. One capsule provides you with 500mg L-lysine or 1000mg L-lysine with a daily dose of two capsules. Lysine is an essential and proteinogenic amino acid and cannot be produced by the body itself. It must therefore be ingested with food if possible, but it can also be very well supplemented with dietary supplements if there is an increased need. L-lysine was first isolated from casein in 1889 by the biochemist Edmund Drechsel. However, his student Max Siegfried published the composition of the amino acid two years later. The Nobel Prize winner, chemist and professor of organic chemistry Emil Fischer presented the final chemical structural formula together with his assistant Fritz Weigert in 1902. Lysine as a building block of collagen Lysine is primarily known as a building block of collagen, which is an essential structural protein in the body. Collagen is in turn a component of skin, bones and connective tissue. Collagen can also be found in cartilage, tendons, ligaments and cell membranes. Other functions of lysine The primary function of the proteinogenic amino acid is the formation of diverse proteins. In addition to collagen, it is also required for the build-up of enzymes and hormones and is a component of plasma proteins. Important proteins in the blood are, for example, hemoglobin (transports oxygen), transferrin (transports iron), lipoproteins (transports fats) and a protein that binds to retinol and thus transports vitamin A. Furthermore, L-lysine is part of the so-called Coagulation factors, which are responsible for normal blood clotting. The immune system's immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, are also dependent on an adequate supply of L-lysine. Lysine in food As a protein component, lysine is found in particularly high amounts in protein-rich foods. High levels of protein are primarily found in foods of animal origin. Good sources of lysine are therefore dairy products such as cottage cheese and cheese, as well as eggs, pork and products made from it, beef, and fish. strong> such as sardines, tuna and carp. Plant sources of L-lysine include soybeans and other legumes such as beans, chickpeas and lentils, peanuts, grains such as rye, bran and oatmeal and baker's yeast.
