EFAs are those necessary fats that we as humans are unable to synthesize in our bodies and must be obtained from either diet or supplementation. Just like essential amino acids (EAAs as found in Animal Nitro), and other essential micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals, we need optimum amounts in order for the body to function properly, let alone to make gains in lean mass. Getting the proper EFAs isn't always easy, especially when they are hard to obtain with a typical diet. A typical diet consists of an overabundance of saturated fats, trans fats, and those fats from plant sources (think of common cooking oils) usually overloaded with omega 6 compounds, as they are the easiest and most economical to get your hands on. Omega 6s are important, as they are EFAs too. But it's not just the types of fats. It's also the ratios. More on that later.

EFAs are those necessary fats that we as humans are unable to synthesize in our bodies and must be obtained from either diet or supplementation. Just like essential amino acids (EAAs as found in Animal Nitro), and other essential micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals, we need optimum amounts in order for the body to function properly, let alone to make gains in lean mass. Getting the proper EFAs isn't always easy, especially when they are hard to obtain with a typical diet. A typical diet consists of an overabundance of saturated fats, trans fats, and those fats from plant sources (think of common cooking oils) usually overloaded with omega 6 compounds, as they are the easiest and most economical to get your hands on. Omega 6s are important, as they are EFAs too. But it's not just the types of fats. It's also the ratios. More on that later.
EFAs have been clinically proven to exert positive effects in many areas, including-balancing insulin levels, thermogenesis, anabolism, hormone synthesis, fertility, prostaglandin function, immune function, repair of cellular membranes, enabling cells to obtain optimum nutrition and more. For the bodybuilder, EFAs are vital for optimal metabolism, hormone production, cardiovascular health, peak performance, reducing exercise soreness and maximizing fat burning. It's a wonder why they are so overlooked and underutilized by the population.
For supplementation purposes there are only 2 types of fats that are needed; Omega 3's (n-3) and Omega 6's (n-6). Omega 9 is necessary, yet not essential because it can be made by the body in modest amounts. The reason why the body can't make an n-3 or n-6 fatty acid is that human metabolism can't add a double bond to a fatty acid that is more than 9 carbons away from the delta end (acid end). This is also the reason why the body can't convert an n-3 fatty acid to an n-6 fatty acid. Yeah, it sounds like science mumbo jumbo, but is important to see from a chemistry perspective why it's so hard to obtain the right EFAs from the diet.
This is where a supplement like Animal Omega comes into play. Sure, it ain't fancy. No cool bells and whistles here, just the basics. It's not going to "pack on 10 lb in a week" but long-term, it'll get ya to where ya want to be. EFAs are needed, not just any old EFAs, but the right kinds and the right amounts. That's what Animal Omega is all about. Omega is the most complete EFA product on the market. It contains the right fats that bodybuilders require. It's a full spectrum, molecularly distilled EFA supplement, each pack containing a precise and pre-dosed ratio of n-3 to n-6. It is packed with sources of Omega 3 oils extracted from various fish sources such as salmon, cod liver, herring, and plant-sourced omega 3s from flaxseed oil. Such a well-rounded mixture, ensures that you obtain all of the various n-3 extracts that are so important for general health. You get the balance of alpha linoleic acid from flax and the key fish oil extracts, EPA and DHA.
Animal Omega is then rounded out with key Omega 6 oils, including; borage, evening primrose, sesamin, and CLA. Linoleic acid is the other essential fatty acid found in nature. As said before, lack of n-6 in ones diet is hard to come by. However, there is a specific form of n-6, gamma linoneic acid or GLA, that is crucial for health. This is contained in ample doses in Omega. The body uses n-6 essential fatty acids to make various prostaglandins and leukotrienes. These substances influence inflammation and pain; some of them increase symptoms, while others decrease them.
Another n-6 found in Animal Omega is CLA. CLA, is touted for its ability to reduce body fat, being anti-catabolic, acting as an antioxidant and enhancing the immune system. Although exactly how CLA works is completely understood, it's been show by the research community that CLA positively influences the metabolism and assists with fat regulation and protein metabolism. CLA, though is not specifically an EFA, (it's a naturally occurring fatty acid found in meal and dairy) is an important addition to the Animal Omega formula as its health promoting properties were too good to pass up.
Sesamin is another hot ingredient added to the Omega formula. It's a naturally occurring lignan found in sesame oil. Research has shown sesamin can help maximize fat loss, support liver and kidney health and maintain healthy lipid profiles when combined along with other EFAs as found in Animal Omega. Sesamin is touted as a promising ingredient in the process of lean mass recomposition.
All of these potent fatty nutrients are supported by a comprehensive nutrient transport complex which allows for maximum absorption and utilization and transport of Omega's essential fatty acids. L-carnitine, lipase and lecithin make up the complex so you rest assured that the components that make up the n-3 and n-6 complexes are actually getting into your system efficiently and effectively. Another important aspect of this complex is the addition of important antioxidants, Vitamins A, D and E, which ensure EFA stability and prevents 'em from breaking down in the can. A must have for any type of EFA supplement. This translates to ultra potent softgels right from the get-go.
All in all, Animal Omega provides essential nutrition for the bodybuilder. It's loaded with all of the right fats, in a proper ratio of n-3 to n-6 to help support high quality metabolic functioning and body recomposition. It also supports cardio-vascular protection, a healthy immune system and overall health and well being. It won't change your physique overnight, but it will be an important addition to your long term physique goals.
If you’re a serious lifter looking to maximize your strength, performance, and gains then it’s time to consider the new Animal Stak.
Like all other Animal products, Animal Stak is a comprehensive supplement delivered in individual “packs”. Each pack contains effective doses of patented and proven ingredients designed to help you naturally enhance your body’s ability to produce anabolic hormones such as growth hormone and testosterone.
Animal Stak also includes DHT blockers and aromatase inhibitors to help your body prevent the conversion of testosterone to either estrogen or DHT. Finally, you’ll find select vasodilators to help enhance systemic circulation and deliver these ingredients where your body needs them most.
To compliment the range of protein infused foods, Dr Zak’s Has added products comprise of functional foods that he believes are essential to a healthy and fit lifestyle. Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is the first in this range.
From a plantation in the heart of Sri Lanka, this extra virgin organic coconut oil is created from a cold pressed method, with the oil extracted at less than 46 degrees centigrade, ensuring it is classed as a raw food. Often called unrefined, this oil comes with a very subtle coconut taste and smell, a good indicator of the extraction method.
Then there is the colour. The Dr Zak’s oil is like snow when cool and clear when heated, without any trace of a yellow or brown tinge, another indicator that a cold pressed extraction method was used.
Here are the facts:
•100% Organic coconut oil & nothing else
•Cold pressed for raw food status
•Extra virgin, non refined and non hydrogenated
•Suitable for vegetarians and vegans
•Heat Stable – ideal for high temperature cooking
•High in medium chain triglycerides
Dr Zaks 40g Protein Pasta
Dr Zak’s believe that their High Protein Pasta is the cleanest high protein pasta on the market. By combining two great protein sources with traditional Durum Wheat, we have turned one of the most staple food sources that traditionally delivered high levels of carbohydrate, into a protein packed reduced carb winner.
A comprehensive protein preparation, in which the top quality enzymatic hydrolisate of the two best sources of animal protein – whey protein a(acid profile not present in any other preparation based on hydrolyzed protein. Additionally, the use of chicken protein hydrolisate in ANABOLIC AMINO 9000 MEGA TABS increases over 6 times the content of glycine, two times of L-arginine, 1.8 times of L-proline and 1.4 times of L-alanine. Glycine participates in the transfection of signals in the central nervous system serving as the transmitter (NMDA receptor activator), constitutes the substrate for the synthesis of components of nucleic acids (necessary for synthesis of protein) and contributes to the correct performance of hematopoietic processes (hem synthesis). L-alanine in addition to its building function of body structural proteins, is used in the liver for synthesis of glucose, thus protecting against muscle cannibalism (when taken before training) or contributing to rapid supplementation of energy reserves and protein synthesis (taken after training). The two times higher content of L-arginine in ANABOLIC AMINO 9000 MEGA TABS compared to standard protein hydrolisate available on the market causes the increased synthesis of nitrogen oxide, positively contributing to muscle blood flow and supplying them with nutrition macroelements. In addition the significant supply of L-arginine in ANABOLIC AMINO 9000 MEGA TABS has a stimulating effect on the secretion of growth hormone, which is very important during the post-exercise period. It is also important that L-arginine, belonging to the group of alkaline amino acids, plays a major role in maintaining the acidic-alkaline balance of the body, strongly distorted by intensive training. For this reason the very high content of L-arginine in ANABOLIC AMINO 9000 MEGA TABS is so important.
L-proline, on the other hand, is the key structural amino acid playing a major role in the synthesis of protein and general metabolism, the quick healing of wounds and injuries, anti-oxidation reactions and immunologic response. Its high content in ANABOLIC AMINO 9000 MEGA TABS cannot therefore be overestimated.
Regarding the kinetics of absorption of this product based on di- and tripeptides and to a substantial degree on free amino acids, it guarantees the rapid saturation of the sportsman's body with the necessary amino acids and maintenance of anabolic state for over an hour from the time of consumption. The application of whey protein hydrolisate (BV=104) additionally intensifies the absorption of chicken proteins. Both sources of protein ensure the maintenance of a positive nitrogen balance in the body even during the most intensive training. The hydrolisate used additionally guarantees the achievement of a high level of branched-chain amino acids ( L-leucine, L-valine, L-isoleucine, BCAA ), which are so effective in hampering training related catabolism.
