Guys, does any of you take a L-Lysine supplement?

I am looking at the list of the sources of it and here it is:

Buffalo Gourd (10,130–33,000 ppm) in seed
Berro, Watercress (1,340–26,800 ppm) in herb.
Soybean (24,290–26,560 ppm) in seed.
Carob, Locust Bean, St.John's-Bread (26,320 ppm) in seed;
Common Bean (Black Bean, Dwarf Bean, Field Bean, Flageolet Bean, French Bean, Garden Bean, Green Bean, Haricot, Haricot Bean, Haricot Vert, Kidney Bean, Navy Bean, Pop Bean, Popping Bean, Snap Bean, String Bean, Wax Bean) (2,390–25,700 ppm) in sprout seedling;
Ben Nut, Benzolive Tree, Jacinto (Sp.), Moringa (aka Drumstick Tree, Horseradish Tree, Ben Oil Tree), West Indian Ben (5,370–25,165 ppm) in shoot.
Lentil (7,120–23,735 ppm) in sprout seedling.
Asparagus Pea, Winged Bean (aka Goa Bean) (21,360–23,304 ppm) in seed.
Fat Hen (3,540–22,550 ppm) in seed.
Lentil (19,570–22,035 ppm) in seed.
White Lupin (19,330–21,585 ppm) in seed.
Black Caraway, Black Cumin, Fennel-Flower, Nutmeg-Flower, Roman Coriander (16,200–20,700 ppm) in seed.
Spinach (1,740–20,664 ppm).
Amaranth, Quinoa

I don't eat ANY of there things too often (meaning I hardly eat any of these, I don't even know what half of there are...) and L-Lysine supposedly helps for cold sores (herpes).

And here I am, I have a whole ton of tiny little cold sores all over my upper lip... I am taking a L-Lysine supplement now (praying it won't make me sick

) , but I wish I could get it through food for after the herpes goes away. Does anyone know any other sources for L-Lysine in the food, that are IBS safe, or any other cure for herpes?

Thanks
