THE 3-WEEK DIET— INTRODUCTION MANUAL
As mentioned, CLA has also been shown to prevent fat cells from getting fatter, so even when you’ ve finished the 3-Week Diet, CLA can help keep the fat from ever coming back.
When combined with the 3-Week Diet, CLA can nearly double your fat loss when taken in the range of 6-8 grams per day.
Leucine
As you may recall, Leucine is an essential amino acid that is found in dietary protein. While researchers have known about Leucine for decades, only recently have they determined the amazing benefits that Leucine has on the body.
Leucine is an extremely valuable BCAA( branched chain amino acid) due to its ability to switch on the body’ s muscle building process as well as to preserve lean muscle mass when dieting. Leucine has been proven to be the most important amino acid to muscle building.
Researchers at the University of Illinois conducted studies that examined weight loss diets containing 10 grams of leucine per day with 125 grams total of protein per day with a minimum of 2.5 grams of leucine at each meal. In two separate studies, the groups consuming high leucine diets had greater weight loss, greater fat loss and better preservation of lean body mass.
Understand that whey protein is a complete protein which is a great source of Leucine. To ensure that we are getting enough Leucine, however, we will add additional Leucine to our diet every day.
Greens +
Greens + is full of vitamins and minerals and it is loaded with free radical absorbing antioxidants. It contains electrolytes( magnesium, potassium, sodium) that are extremely important on a low-carb diet. Greens + is also packed with base producing compounds that neutralize dietary acids and it is rich with healthy bacteria that will help to detoxify the body as we rapidly release toxins from the fat cells as they are used up for energy.
Greens + is a brand name that gets rave reviews. You can definitely find something similar, but this product does get my personal recommendation.
