L-lycine or NN dimethyglycine?

Anyone have an opinion on which to take?

My llmd gave me between these two as a choice for anti viral. Any reason to pick one over the other?

Thanks

I had not heard of dimethylglycine either. Seems there are a lot of mixed reviews about how it works and how well it works. The one thing that I did see though is that it works on the methylation pathway - so it works differently than the Lysine.

Thanks for bringing this up!! I am headed to the health food store in a bit and will be looking to see if they have any of this!

Both are amino acids and for me??? I just have a nice filet mignon once in awhile. LOL!! Sorry, that id my humor showing again.

I think if you were asked to take one for anti-viral I would first ask the doc what virus he was treating. And of the two, I think l-lysine is more anti-viral.

Just my opinion, I'm not a doc.
