Beef
Beef is one of the most popular red meat in many parts of the world. It contains a lot of iron and protein compared to fish or chicken. Steaks and roasted beef are especially rich in lysine content while being low in arginine. On average, an 85g top round steak with fat and bones trimmed provides the body with around 3g of lysine. Beef is often minced or grounded and consumed as steaks, ribs, or roasts. In addition to lysine, this type of meat contains all 9 essential amino acids that are necessary for the maintenance and growth of the body. [10]
