Lysine

Properties: it is an essential amino acid, which needs to be provided to the body through the food. It is needed to build the various kinds of proteins that are needed to grow, to heal and to maintain normal body functions. Lysine is especially important for healthy muscle development and to conserve the absorbed calcium in the body. An adequate amount of Lysine in children supports the immune system, growth and promotes a natural normal appetite.
