Amino-acid containing composition for inhibiting accumulation of fat

In this application, an antiobesity or antihyperlipidemic food, feeding stuff or supplement containing lysine component(s) that is characterized in that said food, feeding stuff or supplement contains lysine component(s) at such rate that 40 to 160 mg in terms of free-form lysine should be taken in per kg of body weight per day, under diet conditions under which the daily protein energy composition is 20% or less, and an antiobesity or antihyperlipidemic food, feeding stuff or supplement containing lysine component(s) that is characterized by containing said lysine component(s) in an amount of 0.8 to 3.0 wt % in terms of free-form lysine on the basis of the dry matter and having a protein energy composition of 20% or less are disclosed. According to the present invention, a method that can realize a reduction in body weight or body fat, suppress weight increases, or improve hyperlipidemia for obese persons or persons concerned about increases in their body weight, safely and to the fullest extent and a method that can eliminate the fat of unnecessarily obese animals, or control obesity, can be provided.

Herein are disclosed an excellent collagen synthesis-promoting amino acid composition that are characterized by containing specific amino acids at a specific ratio, more specifically, by containing 10-40 parts by weight of L-arginine and/or 10-40 parts by weight of L-glutamine, as well as 5-20 parts by weight of L-valine, 8-30 parts by weight of L-isoleucine and 10-35 parts by weight of L-leucine, an amino acid composition that inhibits skin aging, an amino acid composition that suppresses osteoporosis, an amino acid composition that promotes regeneration of tendon and ligament, and an amino acid composition that heals wounds or thermal burns, that are of the same composition.

Amino acid composition promoting collagen synthesis

In a power train supporting apparatus and method for an automotive vehicle, at least three mount portions support a power train constituted by an engine and a transmission on a frame of a vehicle body in such a manner that the output axle of the engine intersects a center line of a vehicular longitudinal direction as viewed from a top of the vehicle. The three mount portions comprise engine front and rear side mounts arranged on a vehicular front side and a vehicular rear side with respect to the engine and a transmission side mount arranged in the vicinity of the transmission. The mounts are arranged in such a manner that a distance from a weight center of the power train to each of the engine front and rear side mounts is shorter than a distance from the weight center of the power train to the transmission side mount.
