Summary
In summary, all evidence points in the direction that amino acid supplementation is justified
for augmenting desired fat loss associated with physical exercise as an obesity therapy.
Nonetheless, the present clinical data concerning oral use of amino acid is insufficient for
justifying its usage in humans as questions could arise with regards to its safety.
Therefore, the present study was proposed to establish the safety profile of amino acid for
human use by evaluating its use at a dose of 1000 mg per day in healthy individuals. The
occurrence of adverse events will be monitored and reported as per the Common Terminology
Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (CTCAE v5.0), whereas the cardiac safety will be
assessed by changes in electrocardiogram parameters, blood pressure, and heart rate.
Furthermore, the effect of amino acid consumption on lipid profile will also be assessed by
measuring peripheral levels of leptin, adiponectin, total cholesterol, and triglycerides in
healthy individuals.
