Lysine Reduces Anxiety

If thats true it could be used a few places on EM. <sarcasm>

Im using Lysine to increase iron absorption but I dont suffer with anxiety to know if it has a positive effect.
 
Vitamin C & L-lysine (Linus Pauling) have been used successfully to reverse atherosclerosis,
it somehow keeps on surfacing despite its complete uselessness.
 
Vince, I'm still a bit confused. So are you taking these as part of your crusade against artery disease/clearing plaque or for a different reason? Not clear whether you are refuting the Pauling theory or not. I have not seen any conclusive documentation one way or other other. Just anecdote on both sides.

I ask because of my own history. I made the decision to go ahead with it though not at quite so high doses. I also have not found any warnings about taking Lysine or Vit C other than titrate C to bowel tolerance. I take 3g vit C and 3 Lysine/day. Unless there is something which I am not aware, seems taking Lysine and C shouldn't hurt anything.

I agree it shouldn't hurt anything supplementing with vitamin C and Lysine. I just don't know if the evidence is high enough to believe it actually stops CAD. I do think it's a good supplement and I have it part of my supplement regiment.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
