L-Lysine
L-Lysine is an Essential Amino Acid.It occurs in relatively small amounts in vegetables and grains, therefore many
vegetarians, esp. strict vegans, have low (or suboptimal) levels.
The Herpes virus is ubiquitous in our society. It requires high amounts of L-arginine to multiply.
L-lysine competes with and antagonizes arginine thereby reducing the availability of arginine for herpes virus replication. (> Lysine is
shown to < herpes outbreaks.

L-Lysine
Lysine is a key amino acid involved in the formation of collagen.
Collagen is the main structural protein and the most abundant protein in the body.

L-Lysine
Per the Pauling & Rath Unified Theory of disease, suboptimum levels of key nutrients
(vitamin C & lysine in particular) leads to weakening of collagen integrity throughout
the body.
This weakness, in turn, contributes to many, if not all chronic diseases. The two most notable are
cancer and heart disease.
In the case of CV disease and arterial plaque formation, suboptimal levels (of Vit C and Lysine in particular) leads to blood vessel weakening and lipoprotein (a) being deposited as part of
the repair process. The damage l/t exposing lysine which binds to lipoprotein (a), (the sticky LDL that attaches to damaged spots & cracks in the vessel walls). Lysine (and proline) can prevent and
correct arterial plaque buildup by occupying binding sites on lipoprotein (a).

According to this theory, in cancer, cancerous cells are only able to multiply and/or spread when they exploit
areas of weakened collagen in tissues.
Of course, that’s why we included it in our Paleo Proteins Perfected!

L-Lysine
There is clearly a need for additional Lysine in most people’s diets, especially those
focusing on plant-based protein sources.
