"Free form" basically means that there are no additives that are a part of most supplements (coatings, colorings, etc.) It is meant for people that are allergic to such substances.
Lysine is an essential amino acid, which means that it is essential to human health but cannot be manufactured by the body. For this reason, lysine must be obtained from food. Lysine is important for proper growth and it plays an essential role in the production of carnitine, a nutrient responsible for converting fatty acids into energy and helping to lower cholesterol. Lysine appears to help the body absorb and conserve calcium and it plays an important role in the formation of collagen, a substance important for bones and connective tissues including skin, tendon, and cartilage.
You can find all sort of different free-from Lysine at various online stores. GNC has a lot of supplements that you can order on the internet, including free-from lysine.
