    L-Lysine Poll

    I was just answering a new member's post about L-Lysine. I think when new members read about L-Lysine it can be confusing because herpes is usually mentioned in the articles along with it. Just a quick show of hands...lol. Who uses L-Lysine daily as a supplement with their babies? ME!

    When I pick up my boy in 2 weeks, I was told by my breeder to feed him L-Lysine in his food to help clear up any outbreaks as kittens are more prone to them.
