L-Lysine is an essential amino acid meaning that dietary intake is essential to human nutrition and health because L-Lysine cannot be produced by human physiological synthesis. L-Lysine was the focus of world-wide attention in 1981 when Italian researcher A. Isidori, M.D., and his colleagues of the University of Rome determined that a combination of 1200 milligrams L-Lysine and 1200 milligrams L-Arginine L-Pyroglutamate when given orally to a group of 15 male volunteers between the ages of 15 and 20 was more than 10 times more effective at increasing blood levels human growth hormone than taking only the amino acid L-Arginine by itself (yielding a average net HGH increase of more than 700%). According to these researchers, "we could demonstrate that the association of the two amino acids does result in the release of biologically active HGH able to affect peripheral cellular receptors and thus cell growth in general."

Recommended L-Lysine Dietary Allowance (RDA) for adults is 12 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day. That works out to about 830 milligrams L-Lysine per day for a 150 pound adult. By consulting the green Bulk Density Analysis table below you'll notice that a level 1/2 teaspoon corresponds to approximately 1,405 grams by weight. It is generally recommended to take L-Lysine supplementation with meals to reduce the chances of gastric upset with larger doses than 2 to 3 grams in a single dose.

Side effects from L-Lysine have been reported including gastric upset and diarrhea when taking very large doses in excess of 10 grams per single dose.
