L-lysine is great for keeping cold sores at in check
I use this to inhibit cold sores.
I take it daily to prevent cold sores.
When I do get a cold sore, I will take it three times a day, to help it heal faster.

poor
sadly the Lysine product has changed. I have been using it for many many years. I looked at the ingredients and some of them are very unhealthy. It used to be a clean product. I will not be using it in future, as a matter of fact I threw out the three bottles that I purchased. It makes me so sad, that good brands and good products get infiltrated with chemicals and ingredients that harm people. I have found some clean forms of lysine and I will be using those brands in the future. If you ever change your product back to a clean one please do reach out.

Decisive Praise
As a subscriber, now, to four supplements, Solaray continues to surpass my expectations, both in its products and in the reliable and timely delivery of those products. Not beguiled by immediate gratification, aware, rather, that the efficacy of any benefit depends upon the discipline, the regimen, with which one devotes oneself to that benefit, I await in many regards fullest evidence of the advantages of the supplements I take, all from Solaray. As a subscriber, Solaray has never failed to honour its commitment to my commitment. Without hesitation, I would recommend Solaray wholeheartedly.

Never switching to a different brand
Absolutely love your brand of L-Lysine! Better than all the rest for sure. My semi-annual common cold hasn't showed up this year. I truly believe it's because I've been taking this religiously for the last 4 months.

    Glutamine 1000mg- Essential Amino Acid for Muscle Form
    L-Glutamine is a flavorless, easy-mixing powder and an extremely versatile free form amino acid formula. It is the most abundant, naturally occurring amino acid in muscle tissue, but it can be depleted during prolonged training. Supplementing with L-Glutamine replenishes depleted stores, to help build new lean muscle and protect hard-earned gains by supporting protein synthesis. L-Glutamine also supports acid-base homeostasis. L-Glutamine supports post-workout muscle energy repletion, volumization, and repair. This "conditionally essential" amino acid functions as a critical factor in muscle form and function.† Supports Muscle Cell Volumization And Muscle Development Taking L-Glutamine supplements will help you improve exercise performance and gain muscles. The supplement also hydrates your body cells which are critical for repair and growth. Replenishes Depleted Glutamine Levels When one is stressed, ill, or injured, the L-Glutamine levels will go down, causing your body to look for the amino acid in your muscles to fill the gap. Glutamine supplements can support faster recovery for several ailments.
