So what's
all the hype surrounding MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax
anyway? Well, flax has been found to be essential for optimum
health and athletic performance. Yes, "essential" meaning that
flax contains a special essential fatty acid
(Omega-3) that is required for optimum
health and must be ingested directly in the diet. Virtually all
of us are deficient in these critical essential fatty acids. In
fact, upwards to 20% of the population exhibits undetectable
blood levels of Omega-3. Athletes, bodybuilders, weekend
warriors and even dieters may easily fall into this category due
to an increased demand and utilization of nutrients, and a
tendency toward fat phobia.
Okay, so Omega-3 in flax oil is essential and I may be
deficient, why is it so important anyway? The essential Omega-3
fatty acid in MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax
is ultimately converted in the body to hormone-like compounds
that dictate literally every biological process including:
- Stimulate steroid production
- Synthesization of hormones
- Mediating immune response
- Directing endocrine hormones to target cells
- Regulating smooth muscle and autonomic reflexes
- Construction of healthy cell walls
- Transportation of oxygen to body cells
- Keeping saturated fats mobile in the blood stream
- Regulation of nerve transmission
- Serving as the primary energy source for the heart
muscle
This is to name a few of the over 1,000 biological actions of
essential fatty acids.
The fatty acids in MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax
are essential nutrients. They are the starting point, or the
mortar and bricks if you will, for manufacturing all other fatty
acids and hormone precursors necessary to support and build
strong bones, and lean muscle, while prolonging stamina required
for endurance sports. Beyond providing essential nutrients MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax
provides valuable fuel required by today's high intensity
athlete.While the fatty acids in MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax
are defined as fats - they actually act in the body as
anti-fats. Instead of adding unsightly and slowing body fat,
they actually stoke metabolic processes in the body that speed
fat loss. While technically defined as fats because of their
molecular structure, they are the antitheses to saturated fats
in the body - as black is to white, and as hot is to cold. They
work to help maintain your ideal bodyweight.
Flax has received an overwhelming response from the athletic and
bodybuilding community. The consensus is that unlike many of the
"fad" products on the market, flax is here to stay due to it's
profound health benefits. An article entitled "Best of the
Best", and published in the bodybuilding and health enthusiast
magazine Muscle Media 2000, claims flax as "the hottest idea in
bodybuilding" and "a surprising new category of bodybuilding
supplements." Mr. Dan Duchane in his column "Ask the Guru", also
writing for Muscle Media 2000, ranked flax as the number one
bodybuilding supplement compared to all other available
products. In an article written by bodybuilding columnist Jay
Robb for Exercise for Men, Jay cites the importance of
essential fatty acids in flax as primary
building blocks of healthy cells, in lowering
cholesterol levels, forming nerve
and brain tissue, playing a key role in regulating the
cardiovascular, immune and digestive systems, promoting healing
and in helping to burn calories.
Many people ask if they need MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax?
If you are burning any calories, i.e., walking, talking, eating
and breathing the answer is yes. In fact, MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax
is as important, if not more important than the prevailing
popular products on the market such as creatine, protein powder
and chromium in sustaining, maintaining and excelling in
athletic performance. Most athletes find it easiest to work flax
into their daily regimen by simply blending it in with their
daily protein drink. The general recommendation is about
one-tablespoon per every 100 pounds of body weight. MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax
is quickly losing its status as a "best kept secret" among
bodybuilders and athletes as everyone is rushing for a bottle of
what has become known as liquid dynamite!
