Keep Muslce & Lose Fat

Leucine is an essential amino acid that has been suggested by researchers to be the key to losing weight from fat while maintaining lean body muscle. On most diets, you lose fat plus muscle. However, by losing muscle, you also lose the ability to burn calories.

 

Studies have shown that leucine spares muscle proteins during weight loss, so that you only lose the fat- not the muscle. Research shows that leucine can head straight to your muscles and initiate protein synthesis used for muscle building. Muscle building can counteract muscle breakdown which occurs from eating fewer calories. By keeping muscle, you lose inches from burning fat. Muscle burns more calories than fat- thus, you keep your metabolism up!
