10 Foods High in Lysiene
Food #5: Roasted Soybeans
Soybeans are often eaten by vegetarians for their high protein content because they help to replace the protein that they don’t get from not eating meat. In addition to having a high protein content, they are also a good source of other nutrients, including lysine. They don’t have to be eaten by vegetarians only, of course, as anybody can benefit from the nutrition that soybeans provide.
Soybeans are prepared in numerous ways, including as tofu and soy milk. For a particularly high lysine content, choose roasted soybeans. Soybeans are popular in far East Asian cuisine, although they can be used in a variety of dishes from elsewhere in the world.
