Q: will taking amino acids help me to lose weight?

A: No, by themselves amino acid supplements will do absolutely nothing for you. Amino acids are simply protein building blocks and you get them when you eat almost any food, especially protein-rich ones like meats, fish, dairy, legumes, and some veggies.

If you're serious about losing fat, you need to adapt a good fat-burning diet and an exercise program, preferably including heavy whole-body weightlifting. Please read this carefully and then fill out Mike's Fitness Guide specifying 'Lose Fat' as your goal to get a complete diet and exercise prescription.
