H-Lys-OH, also known as L-Lysine, is a naturally occurring essential amino acid pivotal to overall health and various biological functions. It plays an essential role in the biosynthesis of proteins, making it crucial in the growth and repair of tissues, production of hormones, and the formation of antibodies. As a fundamental building block of proteins, H-Lys-OH is integral to processes such as collagen formation, which supports skin, bone, and joint health. Additionally, it facilitates the absorption of calcium, contributing to robust bone strength and resilience. L-Lysine is also involved in the conversion of fatty acids into energy, supporting metabolism and helping to maintain healthy weight levels. Widely used in dietary supplements, animal feed, and pharmaceuticals, H-Lys-OH aids in muscle protein synthesis, enhances athletic performance, and accelerates recovery from injury or surgery. Its antiviral properties are valuable in supporting immune function and mitigating outbreaks of cold sores caused by the herpes simplex virus. Quality-assured and precision-processed, H-Lys-OH offers versatile applications across industries, ensuring optimal efficacy and purity for your health and wellness needs.
