Aminogen Supports Dieters in Struggle to Lose Fat, Keep Muscle

That's the latest headline in Aminogen news, you can read the complete press release here.

How exactly does Aminogen encourage fat loss and, at the same time, promote muscle?  It's an important question because after all, isn't that what you really mean when you say you want to lose weight? 

What you really want is to lose FAT, while keeping or even increasing your lean muscle.  There are all sorts of health reasons for maintaining muscle.  And it's that combination of less fat and more lean muscle that gives your body the healthy, attractive shape you want. 

So here's how Aminogen factors in.

We know that protein on its own:

Promotes weight loss because it increases satiety (you feel fuller, longer)

Effects hunger-regulating hormones like ghrelin, PPY and leptin

Supplies amino acids important for muscle growth and metabolism

Now, add Aminogen into the mix and three things happen:

You can absorb that satiety-promoting protein three times as fast

You can absorb 100% percent more amino acids, and 250% more branched-chain amino acids than if you consumed that protein alone

Your increased levels of key amino acids can affect whether your body stores the energy from your protein as fat or burns that energy by putting it to work in your muscles

The first two effects are pretty straight foward.  Aminogen helps your body to absorb more protein, and absorb it more quickly, making you feel full and feeding your lean muscle the amino acids they need to stay strong.

Let's take a look at the third effect.  Different amino acids have different jobs within the body. 

One branched-chain amino acid that plays an important role in metabolism is leucine.  Leucine actually helps to guide energy away from fat cells, and into muscle, where it can be used.

In the published clinical study, Aminogen increased levels of leucine from whey protein by 230%.  In other words, subjects who took their protein with Aminogen had 230% higher levels of leucine than subjects who did not take Aminogen with their protein.

That's a lot of leucine working on behalf of your fat loss. 

Why not simply take leucine in a capsule, then?

Protein with Aminogen has benefits stand-alone amino acids do not:

Satiety and hunger control, as mentioned above

Increased luceine levels from the protein you are already consuming

Cardiovascular benefits proven in clinical study (this is an important one since so many of us diet, in part, to lower our risk of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and the cardiovascular dangers associated with those conditions.)

Bottom line: if you are taking protein to lose weight and stay in shape, make sure that protein contains Aminogen.
