Who can benefit from taking arachidonic acid?
Those that are weight training or would consider themselves as an amateur (or professional, for that matter) athlete may benefit from supplementing with arachidonic acid. As you exercise, your arachidonic acid levels usually decrease as does the production of anabolic prostaglandins. Arachidonic acid is most commonly supplemented by individuals that play a sport on a daily basis, bodybuilders, frequent gym attendees, and other individuals that participate in activities where short, rapid bursts of performance are constantly required. If you are an athlete with a reduced level of arachidonic acid, you’ll probably experience “training stagnation,” which means you will see a decline in your muscle’s ability to stimulate muscle growth.
