Arachidonic Acid
Arachidonic Acid is primarily used in sports nutrition for neuromuscular signalling and potential muscle repairing properties.
Overview:
What is Arachidonic Acid? Arachidonic Acid (ARA) is an omega-6 fatty acid and important component of cell membranes; because of this, it is essential for the function of all cells, especially those in the nervous, skeletal, and immune systems.
ARA plays a significant role in the central nervous system and influences both 1) cell membrane fluidity and 2) activity of ion channels. Ions are electrically charged molecules; the movement of ions carry an electrical wavelength across the neuron, which then passes the signal on the the next neuron etc. Through this process, electrical signals are transmitted throughout the body. It is possible that ARA helps to modulate neuromuscular signaling, which would certainly be beneficial for sport performance activities.
Typically, ARA is used in sports nutrition for its potential muscle building properties. Arachidonic acid does so through a rather unique mechanism. It initially promotes inflammation, but is followed up with a second phase that provides the proper mechanism to repair damaged muscle tissue.
Arachidonic acid also plays a role in immune health by modulating type 2 immune responses; this plays an important role in resistance to allergens and parasites.
