L-lysine and L-arginine amino acid ratios in food diet

Foods containing L-lysine in order from lowest to highest L-lysine quantity amount. Composition and lysine percentage ratios information table starts with l-lysine nutrient poorest food items.

100% (1.00) amount represents equal amounts of amino acids L-lysine and L-arginine (sometimes called also L-arganine) in a food item. A number above the 100% (1.00) mark means the food contains higher amount of L-lysine, therefore it is richer in l-lysine content. In contrary, any number below the 100% (1.00) mark represents higher amount of L-arginine, in comparison to lysine within that food.

Search the Foods Database for food items with L - Lysine - Lys or K α-amino acid, and L - Arginine - Arg or R α-amino acid nutrient breakdown in Descending and Ascending order list.
