Udos Blend (Udos Choice) - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

**Great White** · 13-02-2006, 11:58 AM

Got myself some of this to try out at the weekend.

Anyone use it? Got good results? Noticed any differerence in body compesition, skin, hair, etc?

What dosages you run at? It recommends 30g once a day, which obviously is 30g of fat. seems a bit steep to be taking in, in one go?

Do i need to also carry on with my fish oils with every meal?

Its a mixture of Omega 3, 6 and 9 with 2:1:1 ratio.

Ingredients are:

Flax Oil
Sunflower oil
sesame oil, medium chain tryiglycerides (MCT)
rice germ
bran oil
evening primrose oil* (0.9 mg GLA per capsule)
soy lecithin (GMO-free)
oat germ
bran oil
tocotrienols

As with all Omega, benefits are:

Increased energy, performance, and stamina.
Strengthens immune system.
Lowered risk of cardiovascular disease.
Improved brain function: mood, brain development, behaviour, and vision.
Aided in weight reduction through an increase of metabolism and increased ability to remove toxins from the body.
Regulated organs and glands.
Speedy recovery and healing.
Supported healthy child development.
Improved digestion.
Decreased infection.
Stronger bones and increased bone density.
Protected genetic material.
Ease PMS.
Softer skin, shinier hair, and stronger nails.

i have to get myself another bottle of this today paul...

i use UDO's when i diet you will see a diffrence when you start to use it mate...

**Great White** · 13-02-2006, 01:33 PM

How much do you take a day mate? The recommended 30g?

Do you have that in with one meal, or spread it over the day?

**Tinytom** · 13-02-2006, 01:41 PM

I use it every day and have a big swig with every meal. Don't measure it out or anything just a big gulp.

Definately helps.

**Aftershock** · 13-02-2006, 01:42 PM

I use udo's when dieting.. I throw the 30mil in my bedtime shake to low the digestion of the protein throughout the night..

I actually really like the taste of it :beer1:

myprotein.co.uk · 16-02-2006, 11:34 AM

UDOs is good but its a touch pricey, there are cheaper alternatives. For example take a look at the NOW Omega 3-6-9 blend which is a fraction of the price.

CHUKS · 16-02-2006, 07:48 PM

As above, good products but a little more expensive than others. We will shortly have a large amount of the Health From The Sun range in stock, and these are the same quality but cheaper.

**Pscarb** · 16-02-2006, 09:53 PM

i have just bought some BCAA and ALCAR from bulkpowders and god does it taste awfull looks like i will have to get my self a capping machine

**Great White** · 17-02-2006, 10:26 AM

Whats with all these overwhelming signatures?!?!

CHUCKS And MyProtein competing to see who can fill up the page 1st?

EXTREME · 18-02-2006, 12:55 AM

Udo's is a top product and I think is only fully appreciated after a decent period of use. Really good for the naturally porky among us (me!). I follow the same technique as Tom does in his administration of the oil.

I bought some ALCarn, Taurine, Citrulline malate and something else from Bulk Powders and the stuff is rank beyond belief and is practically unusable because of the foul "make you vomit" taste.

Mr H · 18-02-2006, 09:05 AM

^^^^same here!!! swig in the morning with breakfast straight from the fridge then at work i have the caps to have with dinner and then its back to the fridge for a swig with tea

**hackskii** · 18-02-2006, 04:00 PM

Well paul, the problem I have with Udo's is the fact that the average Amreican diet is too high in Omega 6's to Omega 3's
Optimum would be 1/1 to 1/4 and that is 3 to 6 ratio
The typical American diet is 1/10 to 1/25 3 to 6 ratio
This is probably 90% of the problems with inflamation for Cardio Vascular Disiase and or congestive heart failure.

So Udo's in theory sounds good but dose essentiall little to actually help the ratios.
This is why I take fish oils, the EPA and DHA are an Omega 3 and this brings the ratio closer to the range that is preferred.
Fish oils are cheap too and easy to take. I take 12 a day, I also take some flax but that is due to someone gave me a bottle, other than that like I said if your ratio was too high Udos would not really help.

The idea is good but unless you used zero oils in your diet and cooked on teflon, or boiled all your food then it is not that good idea.

Tatyana · 19-02-2006, 05:39 AM

One of the plastic surgeons I saw also told me that Omega 6 blocks the uptake of Omega 3, so I think I will switch back to hemp seed oil, and continue with pro-lipid, olive oil, toasted sesame oil and walnut oil.

Also have fish oil supps Hackskii!

Have two brand new bottles of Udo's I won! Anyone want to do swaps with supps?

**hackskii** · 19-02-2006, 05:32 PM

I dont add any omega 6 to my diet.
The only other fat I would even consider would be CLA, that being an anticancer, antioxidant and a natural fat burner fat, this would be it.

Fishoils are by far the cheapest and best profile for Omega 3's, next closest would be flax but other than that toss all the other crap in the trash.

If you want to add some fat in your diet olive oil and butter.
Don't get me started on the butter it is actually healthy and I will post the benefits apon request.
Cook in the higher saturated oils, this will prevent the oils from turning into trans fats like the vegetable oils do and this is very unhealthfull.
Cook in butter or lard.
Lard has one of the best profiles of any cooking fat.
Crazy huh?
Do not cook with vegetable oils.
