Studies indicate that octacosanol allows for the
efficient conversion of food and storage fuels into biological energy,
resulting in increased muscle strength, endurance, vigor, quicker
reaction and faster recovery times. Octacosanol contains sterols, phosphatides,
stearins, long chain alcohols, waxes, and other substances
from the unrefined portion of wheat germ oil. It is possible to extract
octacosanol from wheat but it would take over 10 pounds of wheat to get
a tiny 1000 micrograms of octacosanol.
Octacosanol has been clinically proven to
increase oxygen utilization during exercise or workouts.
It also improves glycogen storage in your body's muscles.
The results of octacosanol supplementation are it increases stamina, increases endurance, reduces high
altitude stress, improves your reaction time, and helps
get oxygen
to your body tissue. Some people also use octacosanol to
increase muscle size or mass.
Octacosanol also has the additional benefit that it
helps lower blood cholesterol levels.
Octacosanol can also benefit those people
who get muscle pain after workout or other exercise. It
can help with other neuromuscular disorders as well.
Octacosanol is also known as:
Policosanol, N-Octacosanol, 1-Octacosanol
