Does anyone know a good supplement brand for Arachidonic Acid or foods rich in it?

Peanut butter is a rich source of omega-6 fats

yes bro, the writer of Anabolics 06 makes a supplement called X Factor that contains like 250mg of AA per cap,,,,I have used it and found it to do nothing, dont waste your cash....

From Dave Barr, a nutritionist I consider to be at the top of his game:

AA eventually gets converted into a whole host of catabolic products, including prostaglandin (PG) E series.

The idea behind the AA supplement is that PG F2 is obligate for muscle protein synthesis (which it seems to be), so more AA = more PG F2 = hypertrophy.

Of course more AA also = more PG E series, along with the other catabolic, and potentially aglesic, products.

X factor, used it, pile of shit! dont waste your money, in the stupidist thing youve done thread, buying X factor was mine.

Just because it's got it's own page in a book on Anabolics, doesn't make it anabolic. Just loses the author credibility, I think.

I agree Anthony, it blows and makes the author look bad as he endorses it bigtime...
