NSI L-Lysine & L-Proline Complex -- 240 Capsules

NSI L-Lysine & L-Proline Complex -- 240 Capsules

  How Does NSI®Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids, Quercetin, Green Tea, L-Lysine and L-Proline Work? Vitamin C is important for supporting collagen, and it also may help to reduce a harmful protein known as low density lipoprotein, we know it as LDL. Bioflavonoids work synergistically with vitamin C to help exert beneficial effects on capillary permeability and blood flow. Green Tea contain polyphenols, chemicals that act as powerful antioxidants. Antioxidants are substances that scavenge free radicals. L-lysine is an amino acid that can be found in the walls of the arteries, and supports the reduction of LDL. L-proline also assists in collagen production. NSI®Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids, Quercetin, Green Tea, L-Lysine and L-Proline is better because it:. Comes packaged 240 capsules per bottle; at 4 capsules daily, that’s a 2-month supply! Is a unique formulation—not many name-brand manufacturers carry this combination, and at such a great value!  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

great for sores on the lip, June 28, 2009

"I'm not sure why this helps heal sores on the lip, but it does. I used to have a small, white sore on the left side of my bottom lip. As long as I take this supplement, the sore is hardly noticeable. I'll have to admit, however, that whenever I quit taking the supplement, the sore re-appears. It's not that the sore was painful, it was noticeable, more than anythig else."

"because a big part of cell walls are made from collagen and collagen is made from the items found in this product. Taking it keeps your arteries supple and reduces blood pressure. Mines 117 over 84, I'm 48 and a lot of my friends are on drugs. Even the doctor told me he wished he had blood pressure and cholesterol levels as good as mine, cholesterol is 130. This stuff works for herpes too."

"It seems like a very good combination of things together. But even though we used the desiccation packets and stored the item properly, the pills became very dark and mottled looking. Maybe they are still ok to use, but we are afraid to. At the very least the effectiveness would be compromised if some sort of chemical reaction is going on. We considered calling the company, but they generally don't have much in-depth product knowledge."

"this was a great purchase, but, I have a thyroid disorder and it makes me shakey. On these types of drugs it doesn't tell you not to take it if you have thyroid and heart problems. I do believe it is the green tea that bothered me. If you don't have these problems then I'm sure you'll love the extra energy."

Pretty close to the Rath formula, June 25, 2007
By SupplementSam
Value: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Satisfaction: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

"The Rath formula has these ingredients. This was one of the few products on the web that has all the various pieces (EGCG, Lysine, Proline).
The Rath formula used a different ascorbate. Still a good deal for the money.

I don't know that anyone can speak to the quality or effectiveness unless I get a before and after ultrafast CT Scan - though the Green Tea Extract is Standardized.

I use it mostly as a complimentary supplement with the other NSI vitamin C products I take.."
