Lysine is an essential amino acid. Essential amino acids cannot be produced by the animal itself. This means the animal cannot produce lysine on its own. Because lysine cannot be produced by the animal itself, it must receive feed that makes this possible.

Function of lysine

Lysine is very important for muscle development, and deficiency is common. When there is a deficiency of a specific amino acid that cannot be produced, it affects milk production, growth, or the immune system.
