Essential fats produce good prostaglandins, which can improve the action of insulin,
decrease muscle breakdown, increase growth hormone secretion and optimize
hormone production.
Essential Fatty Acids are amazing, overlooked nutrients that can promote
good health and help you add pounds of new muscle and shed bodyfat.
The balanced blend of fatty acids is what makes Omega
Stak™ so effective. Omega Stak™ is a well-balanced
blend of EFAs with omega-6 and omega-3 in an ideal 3-to-1 ratio.

Nutrition Facts
One of the best-kept secrets in the bodybuilding community today is the anabolic effects of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are very powerful and very anabolic. For maximum physique development, add essential fatty acids (EFAs) to your diet to manipulate prostaglandin production. Prostaglandins are derived from essential fatty acids. Like water, protein and resistance training, EFAs are essential for muscle growth and to sustain health. If you don’t get them from your diet, your body will deteriorate. Some prostaglandins keep you healthy and prevent disease. Others are critical to your body’s reaction to stress, such as training, or injury. There are three classes of prostaglandins. Series 1 prostaglandins promote performance. They’re highly anabolic (help build muscle), they’re thermogenic (help burn fat), they increase sodium and water clearance by the kidneys and they prevent blood clots. Series 2 prostaglandins disrupt performance. They break down protein (catabolic), they cause salt and water retention, and they promote the clotting of blood, destroying the benefits of series 1 prostaglandins. Series 3 prostaglandins block the production of series 2 prostaglandins. There are two essential fatty acids, linoleic acid and linolenic acid. Linoleic acid is an omega-6 fatty acid, and both series 1 and series 2 prostaglandins are derived from linoleic acid. Linolenic acid—specifically, alpha linolenic acid—is an omega-3 fatty acid. Series 3 prostaglandins are derived from linolenic acid. Another omega-6 fatty acid, gamma linolenic acid (GLA), is also important for health and athletic performance. The most important and unique fact about Omega Stak™ gelcaps is that they have a unique balance of essential fatty acids plus GLA. Benefits
