Leucine

Supplements

This is hardly the first time this has been suggested for leucine. But the only thing rat research is good for is creating misleading propaganda for health food companies.

Brazilian researchers have found that leucine supplements reduced body fat in rats, but Seeley believes that could simply be explained by the rats not liking the taste of the leucine in their diet. (Leucine is found naturally in meat and dairy protein.)

The next big winner in the diet industry could come from micronutrients like amino acids

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Leucine. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
