Marine ingredients in sports nutrition<br />
When it is time to perform, you must rely on your heart! Zooca<br />
Lipids benefits cardiac performance by enhancing the pumping efficiency<br />
of the heart, a benefit associated with the ergogenic properties<br />
of policosanols. Zooca Lipids also significantly increased max<br />
heart rate! Together, these effects mean more oxygen and nutrients to<br />
muscles and other cells in the body. No wonder that Zooca Lipids<br />
gains reputation among high-level athletes.<br />
Fig. 1: Chemical differences of Zooca Lipids, shown as wax esters<br />
vs. conventional lipids.<br />
The uniqueness of Calanus finmarchicus-derived lipids is the<br />
chemi cal form of liquid wax esters (Fig. 1). Described chemi cally,<br />
they are fatty acids esterified to policosanols (often called fatty alcohols,<br />
FAOH) as monoesters. Wax esters are distinctly different from<br />
fat in any other marine (or terrestrial) oils in terms of chemistry, bioactivity,<br />
and health benefits.<br />
Zooca Lipids benefits muscle performance because it contains<br />
ergogenic policosanols that helps optimizing muscle function as well<br />
as nature´s most powerful antioxidant astaxanthin, which mitigates<br />
muscles soreness by reducing oxidative stress in muscle tissue. By<br />
increasing fatty acid oxidation, the muscle glycogen can be spared,<br />
delaying onset of muscle fatigue and enhance performance. Zooca<br />
Lipids is a potent mix of numerous omega-3 fatty acids, which<br />
promotes muscle protein synthesis, aiding restitution and preparing<br />
your body for new efforts.<br />
Zooca Lipids also benefits muscle restitution and soreness on<br />
several levels. The rare omega-3 fatty acid Stearidonic Acid gives an<br />
extra anti-inflammatory dimension. Together with the classic omega-3<br />
fatty acids EPA and DHA, Stearidonic Acid forms a potent anti-inflammatory<br />
trio which mitigates inflammation and lays a good foundation<br />
for optimal healing, partly by inhibiting omega-6 conversion and<br />
