I started taking Lysine as a supplement (500mg) 2x per day as opposed to 1000mg 1x per day & found it more effective. I have been taking it for two reasons 1) to help heal my thyroid & along with a healthier food plan & other supplements seems to be working. 2) A chiropractor with nutrient expertise suggested I do a heavy metal detox & said for one month I should take two 500mg of lysine & 1/2 tsp of coriander whole seeds each day. I haven’t been tested but I know it seriously did something within me as I went through a deactivation period of many different symptoms which I’ve read occurs when you’re detoxing & I feel so much better now. I had some headaches, my sinuses & ears aches & then cleared, my muscles & joints ached & now feel better & in the first couple of weeks I felt sluggish at times or could even feel depressed for day or two & then I felt better. I feel so much better as a whole so can only attribute it to this new change for the month 😀👍🙏  Read Less

In the late 1970's, I worked in a hospital laboratory. My job was computers in a white room, particulate matter, temperature and humidity controlled. After one year of eating my hospital lunch and dinner on, what I didn't know at the time, the 6AM specimen cart for a 550 bed hospital; I got a recurring 'cyst' between my eye brows. The Pathologist directed me to the 'best of the best' dermatologist and he shoot it every month with some liquid. It worked for about 3 weeks, and again it would appear. I researched the issue (in the medical library), and found Lysine was the answer. Months later, I told the dermatologist of how it healed it within a day or so (500 mg caps). Saw my co-worker that used the same table 20 years later, he had the exact same cyst; what I call the Lysine Flush worked within 24 hours. After 20 years, it went away. The dermatologist stated (early 1980s), nothing in the medical journals indicated that 'herbies viruses' were detectable in either of two areas, one of which being lips. To make the long story short, the one day Lysine Flush works better than prescribed medicines, it works like a charm. Last year, the ophthalmologist noted a sudden loss of vision in one eye--I did the Lysine Flush again and on the return visit, he said he had never seen the issue disappear in his career. It was the Lysine Flush (Now Brand). I normally do not take Lysine, but believe it may work as a prophylactic against more recent viruses. The flush I use, but not being a physician, take 2000 mg per day during these special times. Works on the flu, so I figure, only as a prophylactic it might help on a daily basis to slightly reduce health risks--especially when I venture out into the outside world. Take care and be safe.  Read Less
