4. Promote nutrient absorption: Helps with the absorption of minerals such as calcium, zinc, and iron, and has a positive effect on maintaining bone health and normal hematopoietic function.

5. Lower cholesterol levels: Helps produce carnitine to lower cholesterol levels, which is beneficial for cardiovascular health.

III. Application areas.

1. Pharmaceutical field: L-lysine hydrochloride is used to treat developmental disorders, loss of appetite, hypoalbuminemia, etc. caused by lysine deficiency, and can also be used as an adjuvant therapy for brain diseases.

2. Food field: As a nutritional enhancer added to food, such as bread, biscuits, milk powder, etc., to enhance the nutritional value of food and meet the needs of special populations for lysine.

3. Feed field: L-lysine HCL is an essential nutrient for livestock and poultry, which can enhance their appetite, improve their disease resistance, promote wound healing, and improve meat quality. It is widely used in the feed of pigs, chickens, ducks and other poultry and livestock.

IV. Precautions for use.

1. Follow the doctor’s advice on medication: When using in the pharmaceutical field, strictly follow the doctor’s advice and prescription to avoid increasing or decreasing the dosage on your own, so as not to affect the treatment effect or cause adverse reactions.

2. Pay attention to drug interactions: L-lysine hydrochloride may interact with certain drugs when used together, such as penicillin, cephalosporins, and other antibiotics, which may increase the efficacy of antibiotics. However, when used together with glucocorticoids, it may decrease the efficacy of L-lysine. Therefore, the doctor should be informed of other drugs being used before medication.

3. Control usage: When used in the food and feed industry, the usage should be controlled according to relevant standards and regulations to avoid excessive use causing waste or adverse effects on human and animal health.
