“Finally, I started to take L-lysine for a different issue. Immediately I saw that I could lay my head down at night and go to sleep like I could before. That was several months ago and I continue to sleep regularly.”

“L-lysine. My hair stopped falling out and is growing back.”
Negative and mixed experiences
“I have been taking L-Lysine, roughly 2-3g a day for 2 weeks in an attempt to reduce my iNOS levels since lysine competes with arginine, but I haven't noticed much change so far.”
“I have tried 3 different forms for Arginine, and 2 different for Lysine. Both were dose at high doses or 'therapeutic' doses. Neither did anything for me after a few weeks besides give me horrible GI problems.”
“Within 30 minutes my visual snow was absolutely gone!”
