Well from http://www.paulingtherapy.com/

"Knowing that lysyl residues are what causes lipoprotein(a) to get stuck to the
wall of the artery and form atherosclerotic plaques, any physical chemist would
say at once that the thing to do is prevent that by putting the amino acid
lysine in the blood to a greater extent than it is normally. You need lysine to
be alive, it is essential: You have to get about 1 gram a day to keep in protein
balance, but you can take lysine, pure lysine, a perfectly non toxic substance
in food , as pills, which puts extra lysine molecules in the blood. They enter
into competition with the lysyl residues on the wall of arteries and accordingly
count to prevent Lp(a) from being deposited, or even will work to pull it loose
and destroy atherosclerotic plaques."

High dose vitamin C is part of this too.
