In nature, there are approximately five hundred amino acids. Twenty of these are amino acids that serve as building blocks for proteins in the human body, referred to as 'fundamental amino acids'. These fundamental amino acids can be further divided into the categories 'essential', 'semi-essential', and 'non-essential'. L-lysine belongs to the so-called essential amino acids, which means that the body cannot produce it from other amino acids, and one is entirely dependent on diet to meet the daily requirement. For vegetarians and vegans, lysine intake may be insufficient, as animal proteins are particularly rich in lysine.

L-lysine is the precursor of the amino acid carnitine. This product uses the natural L-form of lysine, not the synthetic D-form. Only the L-form is physiologically active. Lysine for use in dietary supplements is produced through fermentation by microorganisms. Plants and microorganisms can indeed produce lysine themselves from the amino acid aspartic acid.
