BTW: For those who are curious... I also tried anti-oxidants to stop burning lungs.
Ascorbic Acid didn't help... even though it was immensely useful in other areas. I tried every type of VitC I could get my hands on including mixed and soluble forms (these work brilliantly).
Selenium as seleno methionine (tried all the major forms)... which is hugely useful in improving excercise duration without pain... but didn't fix the chest burning problem.
Also worked my way through VitE (all 8 types)... with no effect on lungs.
VitD.... no effect on lungs.
Paradoxically I do seem to find that if I load up on cocoa it makes my lungs burn worst (cocoa is a very strong anti-oxidant)... but even this has tapered off now that I've got the oils thing sorted.
I've also scanned the forums for answers and nobody seems to have an understanding of the problem.
BTW: Simply taking a deep breath... holding it and pressing out forcefully (while holding it)... will quickly relieve the symptoms... but not the cause.

Hi,
Finally solved this problem:
The problem appears to be the build up of lactic acid in the lungs: The lungs help burn off lactic acid. However the process seems to fall in a heap when the fats in your cell membranes are the wrong ones. Simply adjusting your cell membranes to improve oxygenation will stop this from occurring. The fat that is associated with oxygenation is LA (Linoleic Acid). LA is in Sunflower and Safflower.
LA is one of the two essential fatty acids (ALA is the other). LA is an Omega6. ALA is an omega 3. If you have these 2 EFA's your body can make all other oils in their correct ratio's. NB. ALA is flax seed. A ratio of 1:2.5 (ALA:LA) is the body's preferred ratio. You only need a teaspoon of oil once or twice a day.
Epithelial cells turn over every 30 days, RBC every 4 months and other cells up to one year or longer. It will take you at least 4 months to maximise the effect... and a year to change all the major cellular oils BTW: You are what you eat... literally.
www.brianpeskin.com is the best explanation of how EFA oils work that I've ever found.

Hello!
You are getting this burning pain whenever you are doing these fast sprints. This might be due to contraction of your chest muscles, some gastric acidity problems, mineral imbalance etc.
If you are going at a normal pace and you do not face any symptoms then you have to take proper food and energy drink as in a fresh juice and glucose to provide you energy when you do this fast sprint. Some diet modifications are required to provide you energy for this mile run.
If that does not help then you need to consult a chest specialist for diagnosing of any problem.
Take care!
Got the same thing and Im only 13 yrs old and i don't know what to do so please email me Coz im reallly worried lmfao coz i wont pass the mile run with that sensation on my lungs... its pretty hard i just felt it today when i ran quarter mile in 1.59 secs tho it went away after 5mins then I ran again.... so wat shoud i do? email me plz Brian_244***@**** Please and thnx
Try some anti histamines. Try to change to different exercises to find out which one is giving you maximum symptoms. Follow up near a chest specialist, take care!
