Clinical Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Amino Acid in Healthy Individuals

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.
