FLAXSEED IS HERE TO STAY IN ATHLETIC COMMUNITY

Flaxseed has received an tremendous response from the athletic and bodybuilding community. The consensus is that unlike many of the "fad" products on the market, flax is here to stay due to it's profound health benefits.

An article entitled "Best of the Best", and published in the bodybuilding and health enthusiast magazine Muscle Media 2000, claims flaxseed as "the hottest idea in bodybuilding" and "a surprising new category of bodybuilding supplements."

Mr. Dan Duchane in his column "Ask the Guru", also writing for Muscle Media 2000, ranked flaxseed as the number one bodybuilding supplement compared to all other available products.

In an article written by bodybuilding columnist Jay Robb for Exercise for Men, Jay cites the importance of essential fatty acids in flax as primary building blocks of healthy cells, in lowering cholesterol levels, forming nerve and brain tissue, playing a key role in regulating the cardiovascular, immune and digestive systems, promoting healing and in helping to burn calories.

Athletes have been testing the integrity of flaxseed and its healing properties for many years. They know how flaxseed contributes to their bodies functionality by Boosting immune functioning (Improve healing and aid in recovery by contributing to the structural integrity of cells), Reducing inflammation (Decrease inflammation to help decrease muscle soreness and improve flexibility) and Increase fat metabolism (Support healthy weight reduction by increasing the body's metabolic rate—making fats burn more rapidly)

Athletes report that flaxseed helps them recover more quickly after workouts and helps decrease post-workout muscle soreness. Researchers believe this effect may be because flaxseed has both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Researchers also believe flaxseed may increase the body's metabolic rate and help the body burn fat more quickly.

Many athletes report that using flaxseed in their diets helps their sprains and bruises heal more rapidly. According to some findings, minor injuries can take only one-quarter of the healing time previously required.
