Lysine is an essential amino acid that must be obtained through the diet or supplementation as it cannot be made in the body. Lysine is a building block for protein, growth and muscle turnover that may help with protein synthesis. It is also a precursor to carnitine, a nutrient responsible for converting fatty acids into energy and helping lower cholesterol and burn fats.
