Essential Fatty Acids are amazing, overlooked nutrients that can promote
good health and help you add pounds of new muscle and shed bodyfat.
One of the best-kept secrets in the bodybuilding community today is the anabolic
effects of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are very powerful and very anabolic.
For maximum physique development, add essential fatty acids (EFAs) to your
diet to manipulate prostaglandin production.
Prostaglandins are derived from essential fatty acids. Like water, protein
and resistance training, EFAs are essential for muscle growth and to sustain
health. If you don’t get them from your diet, your body will deteriorate.
Some prostaglandins keep you healthy and prevent disease. Others are critical
to your body’s reaction to stress, such as training, or injury. There are
three classes of prostaglandins.
Series 1 prostaglandins promote performance. They’re highly anabolic (help
build muscle), they’re thermogenic (help burn fat), they increase sodium
and water clearance by the kidneys and they prevent blood clots.
Series 2 prostaglandins disrupt performance. They break down protein (catabolic),
they cause salt and water retention, and they promote the clotting of blood,
destroying the benefits of series 1 prostaglandins.
Series 3 prostaglandins block the production of series 2 prostaglandins.
There are two essential fatty acids, linoleic acid and linolenic acid. Linoleic
acid is an omega-6 fatty acid, and both series 1 and series 2 prostaglandins
are derived from linoleic acid. Linolenic acid—specifically, alpha linolenic
acid—is an omega-3 fatty acid. Series 3 prostaglandins are derived from linolenic
acid. Another omega-6 fatty acid, gamma linolenic acid (GLA), is also important
for health and athletic performance.
The most important and unique fact about Omega Stak™ gelcaps is that they
have a unique balance of essential fatty acids plus GLA.
