Amino Acid Weight Loss Method (Part 2): Success Stories and Amino Acid Standard Value Table
**Utilizing the properties of amino acids to create a beautiful figure**
You don't need to control your diet; you can reduce fat simply by exercising a little.
Even top models are trying the amino acid diet! How effective is it? You'll know once you try it.
**Lifestyle before weight loss**
8:00~9:00 Breakfast is usually only eaten on Saturdays and Sundays, and often snacks are used instead of rice.
9:00~11:00 Household chores: laundry, cleaning, preparing lunch, etc.
11:00~12:00 Lunch. Lunch is sometimes eaten and sometimes not. When prepared, it is usually simple food such as rice and tofu soup.
12:00~14:00 Afternoon nap
14:00~14:30 Snacks
From 2:30 PM to 4:00 PM, I almost always use a car when I go shopping, even when I go to the supermarket that is not too far away to buy groceries.
16:00~17:30 Prepare dinner, tasting as you go.
17:30~20:00 Rest Before my husband comes home, I play games with the dog or watch TV, spending the time leisurely. I usually eat some snacks during this time.
From 8:00 PM to 8:30 PM, my dinner usually consists mainly of meat. Because I really like rice, I'll definitely ask for "another bowl," and then I'll eat a lot of side dishes. In short, I eat a lot.
20:30~21:30 Organize and prepare for tomorrow
From 21:30 to 23:30, I would eat a snack while reading or watching TV, usually a cup of ice cream or a bottle of ice-cold beer.
23:30~23:45 Taking a bath
24:00 Go to bed
**Life After Starting a Weight Loss Program**
Get up between 8:00 and 8:30. Your throat will be dry when you wake up in the morning, so drink an amino acid beverage at this time.
8:30~9:00 Household chores, such as washing clothes and preparing breakfast.
Breakfast from 9:00 to 9:30 was a weight-loss menu. Because the portions were large, I was initially worried I wouldn't be able to finish it, but surprisingly, I ate it all!
9:30~11:00 Household chores, such as cleaning and preparing lunch, can be done in several sessions instead of one.
11:00~12:00 Lunch Breakfast was quite substantial, so lunch was a slightly smaller portion, mostly consisting of easy-to-make udon noodles or soba noodles.
12:00~14:00 Shopping: Try to suppress the urge to eat snacks, and use a bicycle instead of driving when going to the supermarket to buy groceries.
14:00~17:00 Prepare dinner
Take amino acid supplements between 15:00 and 17:00.
From 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, take your dog for a walk. Start with a short, slow walk of about 10 minutes near your home, and gradually increase the time to a longer, slower walk of about 30 minutes. This is a great form of exercise!
6:30 PM - 7:00 PM Dinner will mainly consist of a weight-loss menu. Perhaps because I ate too much before starting the diet, I initially felt hungry, but gradually I started to feel full.
19:00~19:30 Reading or watching TV
19:30~20:00 Take a bath and do some simple stretching exercises. You should also move your body while taking a bath.
21:30~23:00 Go to bed
23:15
24:00
**Experimenter Profile**
I hope to gradually get back to the slim figure I had in high school! I used to relieve stress by eating, and I often snacked. Because I didn't exercise much, I unknowingly became the body shape I am now.
So I decided to try the amino acid diet.
After a period of effort, my skin was no longer dry, and my overall health improved.
At the same time, consciously reduce your intake of fried foods. Walk instead of taking a car, and climb stairs instead of taking the elevator.
The amino acid diet was very effective for me.
**Amino Acids as Food Ingredients for Weight Loss**
The method of using compound amino acids differs from that of regular nutritional supplements. Since the human body primarily secretes growth hormone between 11 PM and 1 AM, taking it before bedtime is the optimal time. Supplementing with a high concentration of compound amino acids before sleep can increase the secretion of HGH (human growth hormone) in adults, which can burn excess body fat, thus restoring a healthy and fit physique while you sleep.
There are many commercially available compound amino acids, including KR multi-nutrient amino acids from the US, sleep-based weight loss capsules, and active amino acids. These supplement the various amino acids necessary for weight loss, promote basal metabolism during sleep, effectively utilize body fat for energy, and rapidly enhance weight loss results.
In recent years, the development of amino acid-containing beverages has become quite popular internationally, especially in the United States and Japan. Major products include Coca-Cola's "Riehl's" in the US, and energy drinks such as "Taiga Vita C," "Sabospo," and "Vita Cappkin" in Japan. Other refreshing beverages include "Amino Vita Water" produced by Ajinomoto Co., Ltd., and "Apelia" produced by Shigedo Co., Ltd., among others.
**Amino Acid Standard Value Table**
An amino acid standard value table lists the 20 essential amino acids required by the body as a percentage of their respective values in food. A higher percentage indicates that the food is more helpful for weight loss. The table below shows the amino acid and calorie content per 100 grams of the edible portion of various food ingredients.
