Nutricost L-Lysine Powder 1KG (2.2lbs) - Pure L-Lysine, Non-GMO, Gluten Free

Got this because I adopted a kitty who ended up having herpes. By the time we figured out why he was always so sneezy, he had already given it to the other two kitties, so everyone had it. At first we were giving them lysine chews made specifically for cats but it has hard to find one that all 3 of them liked. Not only that, but we had to switch them food to chicken, beef and wheat free (for herpes prevention) and I couldnt find 1 lysine chew that didnt include some form of chicken in it. So then I decided to try this. Based on dosage amounts given by the vet, the two kitties that are on preventative status get 1/2 of the teeny tiny scoop worth a day. Monkey, my sicky kitty, gets 1 level scoop a day (which is 1,000 mg) so I give it to him in 2 doses. Any less than that and he gets sick again. This is the only lysine that has worked!!! The other two stopped sneezing immediately and havent sneezed again, and my Monkey isnt shooting snot rockets all over the house anymore! It takes barely any to make their dose for the day so it is easily mixed into their wet food. There is absolutely zero taste or texture so they cant detect it. Even my picky girl cant tell. I know...I tried it in my coffee the first day we got it. Its for people after all! And the best part... theres a HUGE tub of it! This is by far the best value of lysine for cats/animals. Now I feel stupid for buying all those tiny bags of treats. Lol

Had the smaller container before and it was granular. This gigantic tub is powdery and messy. They should use consistency between sizes. It’s very hard to handle and messy.

I sprinkle this on my cat and dogs food to boost their immune system. Way cheaper than the stuff advertised for pets. Its good to keep some silicone packets in there to keep it dry or it will get hard and chunky.

Great size for value. I feel the crystals or powder was a bit thick, not powder like. Although I’m sure it does the job.

legit stuff.

Its now a fine powder not the granules it was the last time I bought it. Mixed in ok cats are eating it. Same dosage. If the cats are ok then Im ok with it.

Ive been buying this product for a few years to use as a supplement for my cats. It was the consistency of sugar or salt and was easy to sprinkle on their food. Now theyve made it the same texture as flour or cornstarch and is impossible to sprinkle evenly on wet food. So totally USELESS. I feel like throwing the whole 2.2 lbs of it in the trash. SO VERY DISAPOINTING AND WASTE OF MONEY.

My cat has feline herpes so her eyes are really goopy. Ive tried EVERYTHING including the most expensive eye drops/creams/ointments the vet has. I even tried lysine cat treats but they all did nothing. I figured Id give Lysine one more go with this supplement. I mix it into her food and it has done WONDERS. I recommend giving twice a day, as once per day was not as effective.

Can’t give an honest review ... yet ... I didn’t get a scoop and I don’t know how much a scoop is in measurement
