If you have ever had a single fear about using arachidonic acid, please take the time to read this collection of scientific studies.
 
They all sound great as far as there not being adverse effects but what are the expected benefits from it's use?
 
Great link man, appreciate the contribution to this section

Thanks Coop, and Bill has a handful of recent studies to add up there too, so the database will just keep growing :)

Arachidonic acid is an omega-6 essential fatty acid (EFA), which serves as a core regulator of protein synthesis (muscle growth) in humans. It supports the anabolic process by acting as precursor to hormone-like compounds called prostaglandins, specifically PGE2 and PGF2α. These prostaglandins are synthesized in the muscles when damaged from intense exercise, and facilitate tissue repair through several mechanisms including an increase in local IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-1), Invalid Link Removed, and insulin sensitivity, support of satellite cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation, and an increase in blood flow to the muscles (enhanced nutrient delivery)
