“…Early studies by Albanese and his associates found LMH supplementation to improve appetite and growth rate in "poorly thriving" infants who failed to make normal gains on formulas based on evaporated cow's milk [100,101]. These findings were confirmed by Vignec and Gasparik in a more intensive investigation carried out over a year's time [102].…”

L-lysine monohydrochloride (LMH) is widely available to the public as a nonprescription oral supplement. Most of the pharmaceutical-grade product is used as a suppressant of recurrent herpes simplex infections. Recent publications indicate the possibility of other therapeutic uses, e.g., in cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. These and other potential applications are surveyed and evaluated in this review with suggestions for further study. Data on toxicity are reviewed and recommendations made regarding safety of chronic dosage levels.

“…Albanese (97,105) has published data supporting the position that mal nourished infants consuming a milk diet to which lysine has been added in an amount that will raise the ratio of lysine to tryptophan to 6 (this is the ratio found in muscle and serum) 1 have an advantage in positive nitrogen balance and growth over similar infants who receive no supplement. Other studies do not confirm this position.…”
