Lysine is an essential amino acid that cannot be produced by the body but has to be added through food. Lysine acts as a component of the body's collagen, the protein that builds and stabilises hair, skin, nails, and cartilage. L-lysine is also involved in the l-carnitine synthesis, which affects the metabolism of fat. L-lysine is mainly found in animal products and vegetarians may thus have low levels of L-lysine.
