Is Arachidonic Acid dangerous or just good for muscle growth?- My bad on the thread title i f... it up
I was doing some research on a supplement called Factor-X which is a Arachidonic Acid supplement. It was said to induce drastic gains in muscle size and increase anabolism (like a lot of supplements out there), but i have never seen any supplements with this ingredient in it. I did some research on it and i found out what it is, is an Omega 6 fatty acid that induces inflammation (actually promoting DOMS after excercise) and supports anabolic functions in muscle cells. And this is supposed to promote muscle growth which makes sense, but after doing some research i came across other articles that Arachidonic Acid is linked to prostate cancer, and other articles saying that it wasnt. But either way this kind of worries be because this isnt like a test booster where it will cause acne, or unwanted hair growth, or running into a supplement that may cause another inconvience like bloating or stomach irritation...this is CANCER.
Did someone try it before?
Is it worth it?
