Methionine
 
Methionine is an essential amino acid which contains sulfur. It is found in animal products, and is important to control fat levels in the liver and the arteries. In the absence of high animal product intake, there is a danger of not getting enough methionine. This is the most common dietary deficiency seen in vegetarians. Plant foods contain methionine as well: beans, seeds, onions, peanuts, lentils, and some grains.
