The Mediterranean diet is one such diet. It emphasizes grains, but also emphasizes fruits, vegetables, cheese, yoghurt, and fish, all foods high in lysine and low in arginine. This is generally attributed to omega-3 fatty acids in fish. Fish have a high lysine to arginine ratio. Dairy products also have a high lysine to arginine ratio.
Arginine is an amino acid (a building block of protein), produced in the body and found in many foodsâespecially those rich in protein, such as dairy products, meats, fish, nuts and soybeans. Most of the time, we produce or consume all the arginine we need.
