Lysine orotate supplementation is one of the best nutritional sources of lysine available for the individuals with herpes simplex virus infections. Lysine orotate may also be useful in helping reduce lipid deposits in the artery walls, which keeps artery walls flexible lessening the susceptibility to high blood pressure. The amino acids arginine and lysine both have a role in healing of bone fractures. Lysine has an important role in helping the body absorb and conserve calcium. The action of the amino acids (lysine and proline) have multiple roles including increasing calcium absorption in the small intestine, increasing collagen synthesis, increasing growth hormone secretion and in activation of the bone forming cells called osteoblasts.

Lysine is one of eight essential amino acids the rest are: phenylalanine, tryptophan, methionine, leucine, isoleucine, valine and threonine. The amino acids lysine and proline are involved in collagen synthesis. These two amino acids require the mineral zinc, vitamin C and adequate tissue levels of oxygen to form collagen. Low tissue levels of zinc, vitamin C, lysine, proline or oxygen will impair wound healing.
