How these amino acids help support metabolism and healthy weight loss
As the summer sneaks up on us all, here at the IV, we often get asked by patients what nutrients are helpful for weight loss. We want to spotlight two nutrients; the amino acids arginine and glutamine. They both play a key role in the healthy functioning of your body. These aminos support a healthy immune system, maintain cellular health and can improve your metabolism.
What can you expect from these nutrients and how can they help with your weight loss goals? To put it simply, they help by supporting your lean muscle growth, giving your body more energy and balancing your blood sugar and insulin. Read on to learn more!
- Supporting lean muscle growth means that you are getting the most out of your activities and workouts. Arginine and Glutamine can improve your lean muscle growth you will also increase your metabolism! This is a key way to help improve weight loss.
- Giving your body more energy allows you to be more consistent with healthy lifestyle choices and improve your willpower when you are sticking to a meal plan.
- Balancing blood sugar and insulin also means consistent energy, fewer crashes throughout the day, and encouraging the body to burn fat instead of store it.
Here at the IV we customize your IV treatments to best suit your desired health goals and needs, which may include both of these amino acids. Each time you come into the IV health centre for an IV, you will have a consultation with a Naturopathic IV Doctor and they will work with you to decide on an IV best suited for your specific health goals and unique needs.
