What’s everyone’s experience with L-Lysine supplements? I found some references last night that I thought were interesting, they indicate L-Lysine and a vitamin C supplement could be helpful.
The main idea, to me, is to get collagen to build up. I’ve seen that one of us needs an excess of vitamin D in order to maintain basic healthy levels. Maybe we need to approach proline, glycine and lysine in the same way? What’s been your experience with it?

And this article sums up nicely where lysine fits in all of it:
Collagen is assembled in a triple helix design from the amino acids proline, glycine, lysine, and hydroxyproline. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein.
