How it works
Lysozyme hydrolyzes peptidoglycan in bacterial cell walls, leading to cell lysis. This enzymatic action supports the body's natural defenses against bacterial pathogens, contributing to immune resilience.
Who should take it
Adults looking to address frequent infections, low immunity, slow recovery. Particularly relevant for people who prefer a targeted single ingredient and who have ruled out an underlying condition that needs medical care first.
Avoid / careful
Pregnant or nursing women without clinician oversight. People on prescription medication affecting the same pathway should consult a doctor before combining. Side effects are uncommon at recommended doses but mild GI upset can occur when starting.

FAQs
Frequently asked
How quickly can I expect to see results?
Immune resilience effects are typically measurable within 2-6 weeks of consistent daily dosing.
Can I take Lysozyme with other supplements?
Yes, Lysozyme can be layered into broader immune protocols. Consult a clinician if you are on prescription medication.
What is the primary mechanism of action?
Lysozyme works by breaking down the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls, leading to bacterial lysis.

About Lysozyme
Lysozyme is a immune advanced protocols supplement used to support immune resilience. Antimicrobial enzyme for throat and immune support. It is available in capsule form and dosed for adults in India and internationally. As a western-tradition entry in the SacredBod catalog, it is positioned as a single-ingredient option that can be used on its own or layered into a broader protocol. Lysozyme works through the mechanisms characteristic of its class — see the mechanism and research sections for detail. It primarily acts on the immune system, lymphatic system, and effects are dose-dependent, typically becoming measurable within 2-6 weeks for immune resilience. Consistency matters more than dose size for this category.
Evidence
Lysozyme carries an evidence grade of C in the SacredBod catalog, reflecting emerging human evidence for immune resilience. Antimicrobial enzyme for throat and immune support. Benefits are cumulative rather than immediate, typically becoming noticeable within 2-6 weeks for immune resilience, and individual response varies.
Dosing
A typical dose is 90 mg, taken with food, usually in the morning. Start at the lower end, assess tolerance, and stay consistent; more is not automatically better.
Cautions
Pregnant or nursing women without clinician oversight. People on prescription medication affecting the same pathway should consult a doctor before combining. Side effects are uncommon at recommended doses but mild GI upset can occur when starting.
Who it’s for
