High Cysteine Diet

A healthy diet pattern which contains high levels of cysteine or cysteine-related compounds. The high and low cysteine diets will be designed by a research dietician to differ primarily in their concentration of cysteine while providing similar levels of calories, protein, fats, carbohydrates, fiber, and several micronutrients. No additional supplementation of cysteine will be used. Examples of high cysteine foods: chicken, eggs, lentils, yogurt, garlic, cheese, soybeans

OTHER

Low Cysteine Diet

A healthy diet pattern which contains low levels of cysteine or cysteine-related compounds. The high and low cysteine diets will be designed by a research dietician to differ primarily in their concentration of cysteine while providing similar levels of calories, protein, fats, carbohydrates, fiber, and several micronutrients. The low cysteine diet includes lower-protein food sources. Examples of low cysteine foods: rice, bread, oranges, bananas, lettuce, snow peas, peppers
