Arachide olie bevat dus veel arachidonzuur (plus nog eens linolzuur), wat dus slecht is voor de gezondheid (ivm pro-inflammatoire en immuunonderdrukkende prostaglandines).

Bodybuilding supplement
Arachidonic acid is marketed as an anabolic bodybuilding supplement in a variety of products. The first clinical study concerning the use of arachidonic acid as a sport supplement found that arachidonic acid has a possible enhancement of anaerobic capacity and ability to lessen the inflammatory response to training. However, arachidonic acid "did not promote statistically greater gains in strength, muscle mass, or influence markers of muscle hypertrophy."
[20]
Dietary arachidonic acid and inflammation
Under normal metabolic conditions, the increased consumption of arachidonic acid is unlikely to increase inflammation. ARA is metabolized to both proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory molecules.
[21] Studies giving between 840 mg and 2,000 mg per day to healthy individuals for up to 50 days have shown no increases in inflammation or related metabolic activities.
[21][22][23][24] Increased arachidonic acid levels are actually associated with reduced pro-inflammatory IL-6 and IL-1 levels, and increased anti-inflammatory
tumor necrosis factor-beta.
[25] This may result in a reduction in systemic inflammation.
Arachidonic acid does still play a central role in inflammation related to injury and many diseased states. How it is metabolized in the body dictates its inflammatory or anti-inflammatory activity. Individuals suffering from joint pains or active inflammatory disease may find that increased arachidonic acid consumption exacerbates symptoms, presumably because it is being more readily converted to inflammatory compounds. Likewise, high arachidonic acid consumption is not advised for individuals with a history of inflammatory disease, or who are in compromised health. Of note, while ARA supplementation does not appear to have proinflammatory effects in healthy individuals, it may counter the anti-inflammatory effects of
omega-3 fatty acid supplementation.
[26]
Health effects of arachidonic acid supplementation
Arachidonic acid supplementation in daily dosages of 1,000–1,500 mg for 50 days has been well tolerated during several clinical studies, with no significant side effects reported. All common markers of health, including kidney and liver function,
[23] serum lipids,
[27] immunity,
[28] and platelet aggregation
[22] appear to be unaffected with this level and duration of use. Furthermore, higher concentrations of ARA in muscle tissue may be correlated with improved insulin sensitivity.
[29] Arachidonic acid supplementation of the diets of healthy adults appears to offer no toxicity or significant safety risk.
A scientific advisory from the American Heart Association has favorably evaluated the health impact of dietary omega-6 fats, including arachidonic acid.
[30] The group does not recommend limiting this essential fatty acid. In fact, the paper recommends individuals follow a diet that consists of at least 5–10% of calories coming from omega-6 fats, including arachidonic acid. Dietary ARA is not a risk factor for heart disease, and may play a role in maintaining optimal metabolism and reduced heart disease risk. It is, therefore, recommended to maintain sufficient intake levels of both omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids for optimal health.
Arachidonic acid is not
carcinogenic, and studies show dietary level is not associated (positively or negatively) with risk of cancers.
[31][32][33][34] ARA remains integral to the inflammatory and cell growth process, however, which is disturbed in many types of disease including cancer. Therefore, the safety of arachidonic acid supplementation in patients suffering from cancer, inflammatory, or other diseased states is unknown, and supplementation is not recommended.

Het kan dus prima gebuikt worden om bijv. vlees mee te bakken.
