What the heck is "Spinach (1,740–20,664 ppm) in slant"? What's "slant"? I've looked in some dictionaries, they don't have any definitions that seem to do with vegetables. --71.125.9.209 07:51, 18 September 2006 (UTC)


Thanks for the note 71.125.9.209, one of the editors made a typo an year ago. I have corect it back. I'm not sure if "Plant" is correct, as that would mean the whole plant, not just the seeds, the leaves, the roots or whatever, and in that case there is no need for the "in Plant". -- Boris 19:24, 18 September 2006 (UTC)


Under properties I think there should be a citation for suchs things like lysines importance in "recovering from surgery." Sounds too much like people hawking the supplement the way it is written. Knowledge JunkieKJ

I agree, there are many instances of these Claims.. Perhaps make a new sections entitled Claims for these "home remedy" types of things. Another example is in there below: "...beneficial for those with herpes simplex infections" Rage italic 17:38, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

Added cleanup tag in order to let people know the article is not up to Wikipedia standards. There are spurious claims and the content does not match the other amino acids included in the stub. Rage italic 17:56, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nothing on the widely-touted immune effects?

All I ever read about is how lysine pills protect you from, and help you get over colds and flu faster. Shocked to find nothing about that here. W@ntonsoup (talk) 23:00, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
