L-Lysine is not produced by the body and must be obtained via the diet. Some natural food sources for L-Lysine include lima beans, kidney beans, potatoes, corn, red meat, fish and milk. L-Lysine is necessary for helping the immune system produce antibodies that are necessary for warding off viral infections, making it beneficial for treating herpes, cold sores, mouth ulcers, and fevers. L-Lysine deficiencies may include fatigue, moodiness, anemia, poor concentration, reproductive problems and slow development. L-Lysine supplementation helps maintain the health of the structural, circulatory and immune systems.
