Lysine Details
Lysine is an essential amino acid that your body doesn’t produce on its own, which means it must come from diet or supplementation. Primary dietary sources of lysine are meat, poultry, fish, dairy, tofu, lentils, and beans. However, because many individuals don’t get enough lysine through diet alone, supplementation of this essential amino acid is advisable.
Thorne’s Lysine uses the purest, most absorbable form of this amino acid – without adding unnecessary additives or preservatives.
Benefits of Thorne's Lysine:
- Wound healing – Lysine is often recommended for supporting the healing of sores and wounds because of its benefits to collagen formation and immune function*
- Promotes immune health – lysine provides nutritional support to help your body maintain its natural defenses*
- Skin health – This amino acid is known to promote collagen formation, which in turn benefits the health and elasticity of skin*
- Bone health – lysine promotes calcium absorption, which is needed to maintain strong bones and teeth*
- Some evidence indicates lysine can be beneficial for maintaining healthy gum and lip tissues*
This product has been third-party tested and certified to verify what's in the package matches what's on the label and to confirm it contains no unsafe levels of contaminants, such as heavy metals, pesticides, and microorganisms.

Reviews
Worked
Husband said it worked.
Great supplement for fever blisters
I use this for cold sores or fever blisters on my lips. I also will use this daily in the summertime for preventative maintenance because the sun creates problems for me like fever blisters. Every bit helps when it comes to these unsightly things. Also, it's overall good for your immune system. I have used other brands of lysine and this one is like no other. And the price is right!
Lysine
I cannot confirm or deny its efficacy. I have not been sick for long time, however.
cold sores
High quality support in fighting off cold sores.
Great supplement
Lysine has been a great support for me.
Love this product
Love this product. It is perfect for my regimen. Thorne has the cleanest ingredients. I will not use any other brand.
Love the product!
No complaints so far! Great supplement!
Daily Lysine For Cold Sores
I am prone to cold sore outbreaks, and when I take one Lysine daily it helps greatly. And when I feel an outbreak coming, I triple it throughout the day, and I almost never have one. I used to have outbreaks about every 2-3 months, but now it's only 3-4 years and only if I don't take the higher amount.
Must have
I love this product! I struggle with taking vitamins on an empty stomach, so the vegetarian lysine is a hit!
A must for my everyday routine
