How it works
Lysine is an essential amino acid necessary for growth and tissue repair, and it serves a role in the normal production of antibodies, hormones, and enzymes. Lysine is also a precursor of L-carnitine, an amino acid derivative needed for the normal metabolism of fatty acids for energy production in the body.

Everything you need to know about this product.
What is Designs for Health L-Lysine?
Designs for Health L-Lysine is a free-form amino acid supplement that provides 1.5 g of L-lysine HCl per serving. Lysine is an essential amino acid, meaning your body cannot make it on its own. It supports growth, tissue repair, and the normal production of antibodies, hormones, and enzymes. It is also a precursor to L-carnitine, which plays a role in fatty acid metabolism and energy production.
What are the key benefits of L-Lysine?
This supplement may help support muscle maintenance, healthy tissue repair, and collagen formation, which is critical for bones, skin, tendons, and cartilage. Because it is offered in free-form, the lysine is immediately available for absorption and can be put to metabolic use more readily than amino acids found in dietary protein. It also supports immune function and cardiovascular health.
How do I take Designs for Health L-Lysine?
Take 2 capsules per day or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. Each bottle contains 120 capsules, providing a 60-day supply at the suggested serving size.
Who is this product best suited for?
It is a good fit for adults who may have difficulty getting adequate lysine from diet alone, such as athletes or those following vegetarian or vegan diets. The product is Non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegetarian-friendly. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or considering this for a child, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner first.
How does L-Lysine compare to similar products in your range?
While products like Amino Acid Supremeâ„¢ offer a broader amino acid blend, Designs for Health L-Lysine delivers a focused, single-amino-acid formula at a meaningful 1.5 g dose per serving. Other products in the range, such as Zinc 30 and DHEA, target different nutritional needs entirely. If you are looking for targeted lysine support specifically, this standalone formula is a straightforward choice.
