This is on the grounds that the amino acids (counting lysine) that structure protein are bountiful in most protein-rich food sources, for example, eggs, meat like pork, hamburger, chicken and fish, and dairy like milk, yogurt and cheddar. Willett says lysine is likewise in all entire plant food sources like wheat and beans.
