Maxx Essentials EFA Maxx - 180 Capsules

Maxx Essentials EFA MAXX is an ultra purified blend of non-GMO (non-genetically modified) oils that are rich in EFAs (essential fatty acids). EFAs are essential fatty acids necessary for proper functioning of your muscles, brain and joints. They are called essential because the body cannot make them and they must be provided in the diet. Often, athletes who are very deficient in EFAs find by simply adding 2-3 servings per day helps them heal faster from injury, reduces sore joints and improves their ability to handle physical stress.

It is a truly customized blend of select strains of ancient prairie flax, pumpkin seed and sunflower oils. This blend is selected as the foundation for EFA users. It is also special in that it features a unique EFA blend, correctly dominant in omega-3 EFAs. Omega-3 EFAs are the EFA group most of us do not get enough of in our diet. Most other commercial EFA oils blends only have a 2:1 ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 EFAs. Our customized 3:1 ratio delivers higher amounts of EFAs for the hard working athlete's specific needs. (Most athletes already ingest close to, or even more than enough, omega-6 EFAs). The higher the amount of omega-3 EFAs in the formula, the better it is. We've also included pumpkin seed oil because of its male enhancing effects on a healthy prostrate - pumpkin is missing in almost every other EFA oil blend.

Getting revved up for a workout is easier when your EFAs are topped up. In fact one study found taking the specific EFAs in EFA MAXX improved performance by 40%. Another study using a blend with the key EFAs found in EFA MAXX also replicated those results. EFAs, particularly the Omega-3 EFAs, are responsible for brain function, joint function, and relaying electrical signals in the mind-muscle connection. By supplementing with an EFA blend that favours higher ratios of Omega-3 EFAs, you can improve this mind-muscle connection and have greater success in training and in competition.

The Omega-3 and Omega-6 EFAs in EFA MAXX are also well documented in initiating the building of eicosanoids (types 1, 2 and 3). Eicosanoids regulate many functions in all tissues on a moment-to-moment basis, during every aspect of training through to recovery. To lift really huge weights in the gym, you need to also have the proper mechanisms in place to mitigate minute-by-minute inflammation, and to regulate overall inflammation post workout. One of the most overlooked areas most heavy-duty weight trainers miss out on, is simply the addition of EFAs to their overall regimen. If 'over-inflammation' goes unchecked, your muscle cannot recover enough, as muscle-building nutrients get diverted away from the muscle, to the connective and joint tissue. By simply adding EFA MAXX to your daily nutrition program, you can start to tilt your body into an anabolic muscle building state; the EFAs will alleviate the joint inflammation, allowing muscle building nutrients to flow back into the muscles where you want them.
