Lysine is an essential amino acid and it has been found to promote therapeutic effects in viral related conditions. Particularly of current interest is its ability to manage herpes simplex virus, if the nutritional intake is low in arginine. Lysine cannot be synthesized in the organism and the breakdown of lysine is not reversible. Therefore, it is imperative to be present in the diet in adequate quantities. Poor nutritional intake of lysine leads to poor appetite, decrease in body weight, anemia, enzyme disorders, and many more disorders. Lysine is used therapeutically to enhance the growth of children, and to assist gastric function and appetite.

Lysine appears in the organism to help it absorb and conserve calcium. Lysine has many functions in the body for a variety of purposes. Since lysine interferes with replication of herpes viruses, it is often used by people with cold sores or genital herpes.
