BioLife L-Lysine 1000mg 60 Tablets
N$149.00L-Lysine, an essential amino acid which may alleviate and/or reduce the duration and severity of painful shingles or cold sore outbreaks.
L-Lysine is one of nine essential amino acids in humans required for growth and tissue repair. Lysine is supplied by many foods, especially red meats, fish, and dairy products. L-Lysine seems to be active against herpes simplex viruses and may aid in the production of antibodies.
Lysine may help to slow down or prevent the growth of the Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1), which is responsible for causing Cold Sores / Fever Blisters. HSV-1 requires Arginine, which is another Amino Acid, to grow and replicate. Lysine helps prevent the body from absorbing Arginine, making it difficult for HSV-1 to grow and replicate.
- May alleviate the painful symptoms of shingles.
- Possesses an anti-herpes effect.
- Inhibits herpes.
- Plays a natural role in building connective tissue and healing wounds.
Suggested use: Take one tablet, three times a day for therapeutic use or one tablet daily for prophylactic use (as a preventative), or as directed by your Health Professional.

Genologix L-Citrulline – 120 VegCaps
N$267.75Genologix L-Citrulline is an amino acid, essential in nitric oxide metabolism and regulation.
Our bodies convert L-Citrulline into L-Arginine with a resultant increase in both L-Arginine as well as nitric oxide. When we increase the production of nitric oxide, vascular dilation is boosted; this facilitates improved oxygen and blood circulation, leading to enhanced physical performance. L-Citrulline helps the body rid itself of ammonia, a by-product of high intensity exercise. This detox effect enables the body to recover faster after a workout.
Studies performed within the last decade have repeatedly shown that L-Citrulline improves endurance, maximum power and exercise recovery after as little as a single dose.
- Boosted nitric oxide – greatly improved blood flow
- Enhancing physical endurance
- Improving maximum power
- Decreasing muscle recovery time
- Assisting with erectile dysfunction
- Lowering high blood pressure
Suggested use: A serving equals a daily dose.
- Take four capsules daily, in the morning with food.
- If using for exercise purposes, take 30 minutes before exercise. Split dose if desired.
- This product is not known to produce negative side effects, however should you experience negative side effects then discontinue use.

Genologix L-Glutamine – 120 VegCaps
N$183.75L-Glutamine is a real gem, with fantastic fitness applications as well as great nootropic benefits, a real two-in-one.
L-Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid, serving as a protein building-block in our bodies, amongst many other critically important uses.
L-Glutamine can raise human growth hormone (HGH) levels, lead to muscle gain, improved energy levels and an increase in resting metabolic rate. There is also evidence that it assists with reducing fatigue in-workout, and improving muscle recovery time after a workout. Long workouts have been shown to dramatically reduce levels in the body, making this a very useful post-exercise supplement.
Our immune systems rely heavily on L-Glutamine as a critical fuel source for our immune cells. These include our intestinal cells, which use it during their normal growth and maintenance cycle. Our intestinal cells play a core role in our overall immune health
As a nootropic, Glutamine is the main precursor to the excitatory neurotransmitters glutamate and aspartate, and the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. Optimal glutamate and GABA levels positively affect alertness, focus, mood and memory. When you balance L-Glutamine levels in your brain, you feel calm and have a reduction in cravings for sugar and alcohol.
- Reduces workout fatigue
- Improves workout recovery time
- Increases muscle gain
- Multiple nootropic benefits
- Reduces cravings
- Big contributor to overall immune health
Suggested use: A serving equals a daily dose.
- Take two capsules twice per day, ideally on an empty stomach just before or after exercise and/or just before sleep
- Discontinue use if any adverse effects are experienced

Genologix L-Glutathione – 60 VegCaps
N$288.75Genologix L-Glutathione is the most abundant anti-oxidant in our bodies. When glutathione levels are healthy, you can not only prevent health problems, but experience boosted energy levels, bright and radiant skin, a strong heart, and a sharp mind. Glutathione is often called the “Master Anti-oxidant” and for very good reason.
L-Glutathione is also a very power skin brightening compound that reduces melanogenesis, the process of melanin product. Less melanin is produced which lightens your appearance and reduces dark spots and uneven skin tone. Glutathione protects your mitochondria, ensuring your cells are able to make the energy your body needs. It also makes sure that heavy metals, organic toxins, and free radicals generated during normal metabolism don’t damage your mitochondria.
- Energy boosting and improved endurance
- Oxide neutralization (anti-oxidant)
- Toxin elimination
- Immune boosting properties
- Decreased wrinkles and increased skin elasticity
- Skin brightening and reduces dark spots
- Neuroregeneration
- Arterial health improvement
- Anti-inflammation benefits
