In my local newspaper there is a big article about fish oil stimulating muscle growth by increasing insulin sensitivity not only in cattle but also in bodybuilders. The "discovery" was made by the research team leader Dr. Carole Thivierge. She has a homepage here: http://www.rowett.ac.uk/divisions/omh/c_thivierge.html From my own experience I can say this is a total bullshit, perhaps she should try some serious weightlifting program while supplementing with 5g of fish oil daily for 2 years ...
I know there are many articles about the omega-3s increasing insulin sensitivity and curing diabetes. I don't know the molecular mechanism behind this but exercise alone (or fasting) greatly increases insulin sensitivity so this is enough for me. |
