[music intro]
Hey guys, Jeff Cavaliere here from athleanx.com and back in here in the gym but not using
weights, but back at the white board for my professorial moment here.
How is that?
How is that word for you?
The , sort of, I’m already in character, to try and explain to you why this next supplement
here in the supplement view, is probably the most important one you’re ever gonna put
in your body.
If you’re not already, why you actually should be.
It’s High Grade Omega-3 Fatty Acids.
Now, you guys have written and ask me a lot of questions about this, I figure let me address
this, but let me show you sort of at the board why it is where I ..it is important as I feel
it is.
Over here, quickly some of the health benefits of Omega-3, that have been documented and,
you know, well researched.
As a matter of fact it’s the only supplement that’s endorsed by the American Heart Association,
because it increases HDL Cholesterol, it’s the good cholesterol.
It decreases your blood triglycerides and decreases heart disease as a result of all
this.
It’s been shown that decreases cancer risk, especially prostate and colon cancer in men,
increase insulin sensitivity , that’s good for fat loss, decreasing arthritic pain, whether
it’ll be from Rheumatic arthritis or whether it would be from Osteo arthritis, improved
leaver metabolism, and then, the most importantly for you guys, because this is, you’re here
for really building muscle and improve physic, is increased faster muscle recovery , I’ll
tell you why in a second here, and increased fat mobilization which means faster metabolism
and fat loss.
All of this things guys, are caused by inflammatory conditions, ok?
Omega-3s are gonna be your number one element, your number one ally in the battle against
inflammation.
An inflammation when it gets out of hand is a bad thing, as we see with all these other
medical conditions.
Inflammation when it gets out of hand for muscle recovery is gonna set you back where…
I don’t care what you’re taking; you could be taking the best glutamine, the best protein
paddler, the best creatine, it’s not gonna work.
Because if you are in a negative state of inflammation you’re not, your muscles are
never recover.
So, very, very, important.
Let me show you quickly how this all works.
We basically have cells; let’s say this is a muscle cell.
On the surface of the cell we have a receptor, and it’s got a little shape in it, so that
certain elements can, that match up to the shape, can come in and locks in.
So, again, we have two parts of this.
We have an Omega-3 and something called Omega-6s.
Omega-6s are free floating body, they’re very rarely available.
And they’ll compete to get into this cells but the problem is Omega-6s are inflammatory.
They’re the ones that cause all these stuff.
So you wanna yell to get your Omega-3s to get into this phase before them.
It’s like a parking spot, you know.
You’re at the Mall, there in Christmas time, everybody is fighting over the parking spot
, but the first one to get in is the happy one, and the one that’s left out is kind
of, you know, pissed off.
So, you know, you don’t wanna be the one that gets left out but you want that Omega-6
to be left out and just drive around, because of they just are left to be free floating,
they can’t exert any of those inflammatory conditions.
Is only when they get into that cell, can they cause inflammation, so we want Omega-6s
in here, alright?
We’ve got that established, but the problem is: Your body can’t make Omega-3s.
You have to have Omega-3s come through your diet.
And the issue here is that the only way to really get them is through fatty fishes, and
people are not eating fish enough.
As a matter of fact, to get the active ingredients that you need, EPA, that’s the active ingredients
in high grade fish, EPA DHA, you’d have to get about 1,2-1,8 grams of this stuff.
That would amount to about 6 to 8 ounces of fish every single day of the year.
And I don’t know if you’re a fish fan or not, I like it but I’m not even eating
seven days a week, 365 days a year.
And if you do, you still gotta worry about all the contaminates and all the bad fish
that you’re getting over there, especially if they’ve been swimming in that ocean,
you know where we had the BP oil spill a little bit early this year.
So, not a good idea to just continue to eat fish.
So, you need to have some way to get a supplemental.
Now, if that’s the case, you think that all supplements are created equal.
They absolutely are not in this case, because a lot of the grades official, a lot of the
fish are available like in GNC and on the shelves, that aids from a low grade fish oil,
they don’t use the highest purification process, they don’t use, you know, the different
cycling techniques that get rid of the heavy metals and the mercury and things like that,
so you have to guys, in this case, if you’re gonna take these, you have to invest in a
high grade fish oils, and there’s very few available, as a matter of fact Lavasam, you’ve
probably see a lot of commercial as specially during the Super bowl, and they sell from
150 a month, and it’s extremely expensive but It sort of worth the investment because
the only way you’re gonna get the highest grade and the active ingredients.
Most of the other low grade fish oils provide you with free fatty acids that make out about
90% of the actual pill, where as you don’t care about those fatty acids because they
don’t do anything.
You need to have EPD DHA and that’s what you get when you get your high grade.
Now, as far as a specific brand guys, I was actually lucky to grow up in a house over,
my father was a former pioneer in the use of fish oils to treat the medical conditions.
He’s a medical doctor.
Dr. Michael Cavaliere, and he has used it in this practice for all these things.
I use these called Dr. Seas Omega-3s, you know, catchy but he didn’t have the, sort
of the coolness of the AthleanX but he’s got the product for sure.
You know, I’m not here to push this on you guys, but I’m here to at least show you
and provide you with the stuff that I use.
I wouldn’t recommend something to you that I don’t use myself.
This is something I’ve used now for 20 years, and while I can’t say that on equivalent
it’s what has results on my physic today, it has absolutely contributed to my faster
muscle recovery through its anti inflammatory properties and through increased fat mobilization.
So my metabolism just goes a lot quicker because I’ve taken these every day through the last
20 years.
It’s a staple of my program and I would never not use it.
It’s available at omega3formula.com for you guys that want to use the same exact stuff,
but if not, just try to find one of these high grade fish oils.
Again, prescription graves fish oil is Lavasam, three capsules of Omega-3 formula gives you
the same exact content that you would have to get with the Lavasam that you need a prescription
for.
Alright.
Guys don’t underestimate the power of Omega-3s.
They are the gate keeper to the success of all your other supplements.
If you’re on a negative inflammatory balance right now, it doesn’t matter how good your
other pills and supplements are, they’re not gonna work.
So, guys, thanks again for allow me to do these things.
I like the supplement reviews.
If you have any more questions send them in to us, and get ripped at AthleanX.
I’ll review some more supplements for you, but I like to at least give you the, sort
of the information that you can use to make your own decision and go from there.
Guys, back in the gym again next week, not in front of the white board and put away the
t-shirts we have for a while, I’ll get back to doing the gym workouts and stuff that you
like too.
I’ll see you soon!
