ive done a very large amount of research of Arachidonic acid which is the key ingrediant in X factor, and have come to the conclusion that it might not be as safe as people are saying.
Arachidonic Acid is an omega 6 fatty acid, omega 6 is a bad fat, though required, american food typically has too much of it.
"Some medical research has suggested that excessive levels of omega-6 acids, relative to
Omega-3 fatty acids, may increase the probability of a number of diseases. Modern Western diets typically have ratios of omega-6 to
omega-3 in excess of 10 to 1, some as high as 30 to 1. The optimal ratio is thought to be 4 to 1 or lower.
[1]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega-6_fatty_acid But what is a safe dosage of this fatty acid? think of this, most supplements that contain it have a very large property blend and only contain 5-10 mgs of it, while x factor requires a full gram a day, so what are the side affects of too much omega 6? while there are no short term effects, long term effects include:
heart disease, cancer, asthma, arthritis, and depression
X factor is supposed to reduce inflamation, while one of the side effects of excessive AA is inflamation, explain that one to me?
personally I feel that more research has to be done on the product and its ingrediants before it is put on the market. because 15 pounds in 50 days sounds like prohormone results, and considering heart disease is a possibility i wouldnt want to risk it.
