How much AA should we have according to you guys? |
It is tough to say but that 1 gram per day of AA Bill gave to the experimental group did show "strong trending" reductions in IL-6 (IL-6 levels correlate with silent inflammation)
So I think there may be something to giving additional AA (beyond the typical diet) to people as long as people are weight training.
Keep in mind there is a lot of talk about omega 6 to three ratios here, but if you look on page 56 (or is it page 64) of Udo Erasmus's book "The fats that Heal, the fats that Kill" you will see that these ratios are upside down in wild meat. Wild meat actually has less saturated fat, but a stronger AA:EPA/DHA ratio. Wild meat and heavy physical exercise is what humans have evolved on so consider this with any argument here. Saturated fat does impact insulin secretion and insulin resistance also (not to mention silent inflammation if either of these two get out of hand)
Like I was saying you definitely need series 2 prostaglandins (from localized muscle contractions) if you ever hope to activate glycogen sythetase. (stimulating CAMP to break down glycogen and then eventually lowering cAMP allows that enzyme to work correctly)
