Break the world record of the Olympics is not an easy thing, It was proven in 1932, the world record for the 100m sprint and was 11.9 in 2008 to 11.3. This feat can be accomplished with hard training.
Now, a scientific study carried out in mice to show that the same result could theoretically be obtained with a simple change in diet is used regularly sportsmen.
Of course, all athletes perform special diet, to ensure they remain perfect body, in order to run at high speed in a short distance.
Researchers from the Research Institute of Wildlife Ecology (RIWE), Austria show that the average mice fed a polyunsaturated fatty acid (polyunsaturated fatty acids) increased performance equivalent to that obtained after a lot of practice and the human diet. In the experiment, researchers noted that rats fed more than two weeks with a diet high in using sunflower oil, rich in unsaturated fatty acids n-6, ran an average of 0.19 meters / sec, faster than rats fed a high use of oil flaxseed, which is rich in n-3 fatty acids.
This means that, during the two-meter sprint, the rats in the first group to win approximately 0.4 meters. "This research in mice suggests that the general differences in the dietary intake of polyunsaturated fatty acid n-6/n-3 can have an effect the biological maximum running speed "explains Dr. Christopher Turbill. He added that, in other species, muscle and bone-filled skeleton n-6 fatty acids are generally speed boost. Diet with fatty acids can also affect the maximum running speed of other vertebrates, including humans.
