Solgar l-lysine tablets, 1000 mg, 250 ct

It's a Solgar product. One can't go wrong. The only issue is its order only.

Good ingredients. Always good quality. A small ecological benefit: The glass jar is nice in a world of too much plastic.

i have taken this brand for years. It gives my immune system a boost, and I have not had a cold sore as long as I take Solgar brand Llysine .

This works. I would advise anyone that has not had the shingles shot to take 3000 mgs a day as it works and is much safer than the shot.

Seems to be very effective.

This is one supplement I can't do without. In 1980, someone recommended Lysine to combat fever blisters, one of the herpes simplex family. Can't say if it helps with genital herpes, but Lysine works wonders with facial/labial herpes. I've suffered from cold sores/fever blisters since childhood. They are triggered by illness, stress, sunburn, anything that depletes the immune system. Foods like chocolate, nuts, sugar, can also bring on an attack. Lysine can prevent the onset, or reduce the course of an attack, so I can enjoy the occasional [Fran's] chocolate. (Shout out to Seattle! No, I'm not affiliated with Fran's.) The 1000mg pills are large to swallow, but there are smaller sizes available. The only drawback I found is that megadoses, 8 grams or more, can cause diarrhea, so I am careful to limit intake.

Tried three or four other brands as a natural remediation for shingles. The results were tangible because the strength of each product was revealed by the level of itching and irritation experienced. Easy to swallow, non-GMO, gluten, wheat & dairy free, and vegan. Excellent overall!

The product is effective; however, the pill size is extremely large and must be cut in half for swallowing. Then your faced with the sharp edges. We almost returned them, but my wife needs them for balanced health. We probably will go to a different brand next time.
