L-Lysine is an essential amino acid that the body is unable to synthesize. It is an important amino acid found mostly in foods of animal origin and therefore usually low in individuals on vegan/vegetarian type diet. Lysine is essential for healthy collagen. Collagen is the underlying structural material of all soft tissue in the body. This makes lysine important for the production of healthy blood vessels, skin, cartilage, tendons, and other important structural components of the body. We also need lysine to make carnitine. Our L-Lysine is the highest quality free-form L-lysine available.†



Features
Also available in a 1,000mg tablet.
Free-form amino acid.
Vegetarian
Gluten-free


Benefits
L-Lysine is essential for normal, healthy collagen cross-linking which helps support the overall structure of collagen-containing structures such as skin, blood vessels, cartilage, tendons, etc.†
Important for the synthesis of carnitine. Carnitine is essential for the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria of the cell where they are oxidized for energy (ATP).
Particularly important for vegetarians & vegans who may be lacking in dietary sources of lysine.†

L-carnitine is a non-essential amino acid that can be synthesized in the body from the amino acids methionine and lysine. Insufficient amounts may be produced in infants, adolescents, and adults under certain physiological conditions. Vegetarians could also be at risk for carnitine deficiency, as carnitine is found in higher concentrations in animal foods such as beef, poultry, and pork. The amino acids that are required for the body to make carnitine (methionine and lysine) are also low in a vegetarian diet. The highest concentrations of L- carnitine are typically found in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue. This tissue is incapable of synthesizing L-carnitine, so they depend upon dietary and supplemental sources as well as the body’s own ability to manufacture it. Studies show that exercising (skeletal) muscle and heart muscle requires large amounts of L-carnitine. The main function of L-L-carnitine is to help create energy. Cardiac (heart) and skeletal muscle have a significant energy requirement, hence the importance of L-carnitine for these tissues.†



Features
Provides 500mg L-carnitine per tablet along with vitamin B6.
Featuring trademarked L-Carnipure® from Lonza, a world leader in L-carnitine research and manufacturing. Many of the studies done on L-carnitine have used L-Carnipure®.


Benefits
L-carnitine is essential for the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria (the energy powerhouse of the cell) where they can be used to make energy to be used by the cells.†
L-carnitine has been shown to help support healthy cardiovascular function, especially the efficiency of the heart muscle which uses fat as its major source of energy.†
L-carnitine helps provide energy for exercising muscle, supporting exercise performance.†
Studies show L-carnitine helps support normal, healthy blood triglyceride levels.†

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid required by the body to make the neurotransmitter serotonin. The body uses tryptophan to make 5-HTP, and then this gets converted into serotonin. Oftentimes this process is not efficient and does not produce adequate serotonin. Therefore, an increased intake of 5-HTP becomes important. Numerous scientific studies show 5-HTP is of benefit in individuals with mood disorders. Our 5-HTP is from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia plant. 5-HTP has many advantages over L-tryptophan: besides being safer to produce and arguably more potent, it can cross the very selective blood-brain barrier more easily than L-tryptophan. Once it passes through the blood-brain barrier it is able to help increase levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter, whose levels are positively associated with mood.



Features
Provides 100mg of 5-Hydroxytryptophan.
Sourced from European standardized Griffonia bean extract.
Contains synergistic nutrients vitamin C and B6.


Benefits
5-HTP is more efficient at crossing the blood-brain barrier, therefore it is a more effective way to support the synthesis of serotonin in the brain.†
Serotonin is responsible for regulating appetite and mood, and serves as a precursor to melatonin – a hormone involved in regulating the sleep cycle.†
Serotonin helps support a more balanced emotional state.†
5-HTP is a more efficient way to increase serotonin levels, as tryptophan must compete with other amino acids as part of protein in the diet for absorption. Some of the tryptophan is used to make the vitamin niacin, and may be taken up by cells other than brain cells as a source of amino acids.
Studies show 5-HTP is safe and effective for supporting mood, healthy food intake, and a better outlook on life.†
