Udo's Oil - Ultimate Oil Blend

The Truth About Fat

There are two components that come only from fat that are just as necessary to fitness and performance as are proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Of the many kinds of fats, only the ones called Omega 3 and 6 have been deemed 'essential' by scientists. They called them this because every living cell in the body needs these fats but they must come from the diet because the body can't make them on its own. A direct food source is always required.

Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) play a crucial role in the complex workings of the human body. Every bodily function is dependant upon their presence. The main structural component of every cell membrane, they are necessary for cell growth and division, and they regulate vital cell activity. A balanced intake is absolutely essential for healthy cellular function and optimal athletic performance.

Supplementation with EFAs improves Athletic Performance and Fitness Levels

Research shows that EFAs can improve various biochemical and physiological reactions in the body and enhance athletic performance. When present in adequate and balanced amounts EFAs will:

*Improve stamina and endurane

*Decrease recovery time and inflammation after exercise and competition and speed the healing of injuries

*Improve protein and amino acid utilization to help build and maintain lean mass

*Decrease fat storage and production and increase metabolic rate

*Improve oxygen uptake and utilization

*Optimize glandular function

*Decrease arthritic joint pain and strengthen bones

*Improve circulation and immune function

*Promote sleep and elevate mood

*Heighten reflexes and concentration
