are you curious about perfect aminos and if they work in this video I'm going to be
doing a full breakdown of this product and by the end of this video you should know if this
is the right choice for you and before diving into it today make sure that if you are looking
to simplify the process of losing fat and building muscle that you tap that subscribe
button and you hit that Bell we've got awesome videos coming out every single week geared to
make you the best healthiest happiest version of you with that being said let's get into it
what's up everybody my name is Schuyler Diehm I'm the founder of reach fat loss and fitness where
our goal is to help you lose fat and keep it off without the crappy diets without the weighing all
your food counting calories without the torturous cardio and what we're going to cover in this video
as well as all the videos I've released so far as help clients of mine lose fat build muscle and
ditch the yo-yo dieting forever so a few months back I came across this product called perfect
Amino by Body health first instinct after hearing it hearing their claim was a lot of skepticism so
the claim is that this is a protein that is utilized 99 by the body whereas every single
other protein is three to six times less than that and so of course I'm skeptical of course
as someone who is taking his health seriously who takes his fasting seriously Company claims that
you can have this while fasting as well I had to do my research so I started looking into it after
I look into it I started taking it and in this video I'm going to share my experience so just for
full transparency here body health is not paying me this video is not sponsored anything like that
I do have a discount code for reach 20 save you 20 if this is the right supplement for you but
this is a completely honest straightforward review just want it to be transparent about
that so there's a lot to break down about this supplement so I'm going to do this in terms of
organization as best as I can number one what is this product what's in it what does it claim that
it does number two how to take it to get the best results number three is it fasting compliant and
if so how can you utilize it to your advantage and number four finally my experience and my
clients experience as well so first and foremost if you see this video and you're still skeptical
about anything body Health has a Facebook group as well there's tons of posts in there testimonials
experiences everything like that I will leave the link in the description of this video but
with that being said let's get into it so like I said the claim here is that 99 of the protein
perfect Amino can be used by the body if we open up this graph here we see that this is Leaps and
Bounds above any other food you've got 99 for this whole eggs are coming in at 48 meat poultry and
fish at 32 percent whey soy and that's 18 BCAAs only one percent and the remaining percentages
out of all those numbers are the percent that's converted into sugars or fats and so visually
the claim here is that this is utilized more effectively by the body so perfect aminos are
a combination of eight essential amino acids now to give you some background on that protein is
not just protein protein is a combination of 20 different amino acids 11 of those amino acids
are Branch chained meaning they are produced by the body and then the remaining nine cannot be
produced by the body and need to be received from outside sources AKA food and so when you look at a
drink like a BCAA you're consuming this form of a broken down protein but your body can produce
it on its own which is why you hear so many people saying BCAAs are pretty much useless but from an
optimization standpoint if you're consuming eight out of the nine essential amino acids acids now
your body can combine it with the branched chain amino acids that it can naturally produce to
create a protein and the benefit here is that it doesn't have the normal calories of a full
protein you're getting about two to four calories per serving of this so on paper it makes a lot
of sense right you're taking these broken down proteins you're basically taking in half your body
produces the other half for a full protein you get the protein you don't necessarily get the calories
now again I'm a very skeptical person a claim like this which seems extremely strong always makes
me say well if it's that effective why isn't it more popular but what I'll say is from a logical
standpoint it does make sense that this would work and so with that in mind that's why I got
these products to actually take them so what are these products so body Health has come out with
two different forms so we've got perfect Amino in powder form and then we've also got it in capsule
form capsule can come coated so it has a vegetable casing or uncoated which is the one I got the
uncoated capsules are literally just the essential amino acids so you've got those eight ingredients
right there and then the powder of course does have some fillers in there especially the flavor
version so you've got malic acid natural mixed berries flavor citric acid Stevia leaf extract
and sunflower lecithin so from an optimization standpoint if you're just looking for as clean
as possible go with the capsules if you're looking for a little bit of flavor they have Berry they
have a chocolate version that you could put in like a coffee you can go with the powder just
make sure you're not sensitive to Stevia or any of these other ingredients now we get into how to
take perfect aminos so simply if you're taking the capsules you take the capsules if you're taking
the powder you mix it in some liquid and you take it in the liquid but as far as optimization since
your body does get protein from outside food sources although you can get results by just
taking one to three servings every day what body Health recommends is that you take this and wait
at least 30 minutes before eating again and then you don't take this until at least 90 minutes
after eating so whereas the recommendation is anywhere from two all the way up to five or six
servings a day is what's recommended ideally the schedule is when you wake up you take a serving
you wait at least 30 minutes before you eat and then the last meal you eat during the day you wait
90 minutes before having this and then ideally you also have space in between when you take this and
when you go to bed that's from personal experience and I've read testimonials that when you take this
you do have a higher chance of lying awake in bed I typically fall asleep pretty fast in the
nights that I take this very close to bedtime I do tend to stay awake for 30 to 60 minutes
so that's how you take it as far as fasting right because the claim is that this doesn't spike your
insulin and so if you are fasting you can take this you can get that form of protein without
breaking your fast and so does it right and the answer here depends on what you're fasting for
so my clients and myself use fasting for the fat burning and the health benefits and the truth is
their research is showing that the first amino acid in here El leucine does slightly spike your
insulin so if your insulin spikes it does break your fast however what body Health has found what
I have found and what my clients have found is that when you take this you do still get the fat
burning effects because you still are in a calorie deficit you still get the improved metabolism all
the benefits that come with a fat burning fast and on top of that what I found and my clients
have found is that when you take this during a fast it actually does make the fast easier so
you do feel a little bit more focused you have more energy you aren't as hungry and so from a
fat burning perspective that's awesome because if you're fasting 24 hours and then you take this now
you can extend to 36 and maybe it's not as hard so obviously from a sustainability standpoint if
you're using fasting long term you want to make it as easy and enjoyable as possible and this
actually has contributed to making it easier and more sustainable now there's also the autophagy
benefits of fasting which is more of the health side cleaning out and recycling old dead cells to
replace with new healthy cells and so what the research has shown is that this does at least
dampen autophagy and so if you are going for just the health benefits I would not recommend taking
this during your fast now I also think there's a compromise if you're fasting for the fat burning
and you want more of the health benefits what I'd recommend is some of your fast you take this some
of your fast you don't specifically if you're doing like a three to five day or longer fast
I would do at least one a quarter where you are not taking this to get the health benefits so
it really is a trade-off and it really is a decision that you have to make on your own I
do currently take this and then ever every once in a while I'll do a more extended fast without
taking this and so with that being said if you are fasting if you are lifting weights if you are
working to burn fat would I recommend taking this product the answer simply is yes I would so from
my personal experience what I've noticed with this product is that number one it makes fasting easier
which is always a plus and number two it's also helped me retain more muscle not only during my
fast but during my regular eating days as well the first month I started taking this I didn't
change anything else I ate the same way I worked out the same way and I noticed that I had slightly
lower body fat and slightly more muscle at the end of the month and so personally from my schedule I
am eating very consistently each day and I do struggle to get my protein intake so typical
protein goal is going to be anywhere from 0.7 to 1 grams of protein per pound of gold body weight so
if you weigh 200 pounds you're looking to get to 160 pounds seventy percent of 160 is going to be
112 So you're looking to consume between anywhere from 112 to 160 grams of protein a day now with
extended fasting if you're doing a 24 hour faster longer that does change a little bit however even
if you're eating three meals a day for a lot of people getting that much protein in can be
difficult and so the benefit here is if you have a normal eating schedule yes you should still be
prioritizing protein with every meal but this is a supplement of course because of the name to add
in to help you get closer to those protein targets so I personally noticed a difference and then my
clients also have noticed a difference in terms of easier fasts better fat loss and just being able
to stay more focused I'm always curious with this stuff is it a placebo it might be but the truth
is even if it's a placebo it still works you still get the result that you're looking for so overall
is this the key is this something that if you are just doing everything wrong you can take and your
life's going to be perfect of course not is the science very clear on this and am I fully bought
in no honestly I'm not however the results I've seen with this have been very very promising the
results my clients have seen with this have been very promising like very noticeable honestly in
difference of how they feel during their extended fast and it is something that I will be continuing
to take so with that being said if you're working on losing weight working on building
muscle you're working on getting towards your protein goals or even if you're doing some form
of intermittent fasting or even extended fasting I would definitely reckon recommend testing this
out give it a month see what it does I'll leave the link in the description for their website and
you can also use the code reach20 to save 20 on your order they do have an auto ship option but
you can't combine them and you end up saving more money with the code over the auto ship so I'll
leave the link in the description so you can check that out but besides that I'm still studying I'm
still learning I'm still trying new supplements so if you are looking to learn with me if you're
