Formulation Notes

Free form

L-Lysine is an essential free-form amino acid, which acts as a precursor for other amino acids, including L-carnitine (needed for fat metabolism). L-Lysine is crucial to the formation of collagen, a major part of the body's connective tissue. L-Lysine also contributes to energy production when converted to acetyl coenzyme A, one of the principal fuels for the Krebs Cycle.
