80% of people globally (and ~95% of people in the US) don't get enough EPA & DHA. Why does this matter? For one, just as many deaths per year are attributable to trans fans as they are to not consuming enough EPA/DHA. Other key benefits of EPA/DHA include reduced inflammation (a key driver of the aging process) and protection against disuse atrophy.
In this video, expect to learn why it's a huge mistake for pregnant women to avoid fish, why having a low omega-3 intake is comparable to smoking, and more.

My girlfriend’s grandma (age 96) & great aunt (99) grew up in Newfoundland and fish was the primary souce of protein throughout their lives. Her grandma passed last year but her great aunt still lives alone and is very independent. I’m amazed that she has all her mental faculties and can hold conversations recalling stories of her younger years.

In 2008 I started getting some hip pain in my left hip. It soon began in my right hip. I asked my GP about it and he said "let me know when it gets bad enough and we will schedule your hip replacement surgery." The pain gradually got worse til in 2013 it was bad enough that I quit a hike and came home early. I figured it would get debilitating so I wanted to have one more good volcano season first. So I started taking new supplements that would help my strength and stamina. In early 2014 I noticed that my hip pain was gone. I had a great season hiking 260 miles, 75,000 feet & some great volcanos. After volcano season I stopped all my new supplements. My hip pain came back. I started resuming them one at a time to see which cured my hip pain. It was EPA/DHA. I took EPA/DHA for a year. No hip pain. I stopped EPA/DHA. The pain came back. I resumed EPA/DHA. It is now 2024. I am 74 years old and still have no hip pain. I am taking pills that have 500mg of EPA and 250mg of DHA, 4 per day. I have tried several brands. They all work.

I was 10-16 at this time. Now I’m 21, eat seafood maybe once a month or less and feel like I notice a change and it’s much harder for me to do well in school, stay focused, bloodwork is wacky, interesting to say the least.

I ate albacore tuna nearly every day during my pregnancy with my first child. She was valedictorian of her high school, got straight A’s literally every grade through high school. Took advanced AP classes and completed 2 years of college while still in HS. She then went on to graduate suma cum laude with a double bachelors. I’m super proud and I’m happy that I didn’t listen to the naysayers about eating fish when I was pregnant. I remember thinking to myself there are cultures all over the world where fish makes up the majority of their diet. So, their argument didn’t seem logical to me. Japan for example, has a diet based largely on fish and consistently performs better than the US where academics are concerned.

Excellent info from Dr. Rhonda Patrick. A bit leery on the Omega-3 offsetting mercury poisoning though. Personally, I'm a ovo-pescatarian that is mainly plant based. I eat fish 2-3 times per week and eggs when I go out for breakfast. Not a big fan of supplements, though I do take a D3 and on occasion magnesium and B multivitamin. Having said that, it seems that a lot of people should consume an Omega-3 if deficient (as pointed out).

I support your inference that omega-3 acids are very important. However, there is a need for a clearer presentation of what we know so far. Not all formulations of omega-3 have shown to be equally effective. Please look at the JELIS trial in Japan and REDUCE-IT trials that focused on icosapent ethyl (EPA); also how at higher concentrations of EPA (> 2g/day) there is a risk of AFib and bleeding. There is a huge amount of recent activity on EPA within the cardiovascular community and definitely needs to be included in any balanced presentation on omega-3s.

I would be very curious to see a podcast episode specifically on inflammation in the body. I say this because, while I am aware of the literature linking chronic inflammation with reduced lifespan, inflammation also plays a role in processes like muscle hypertrophy, which is shown to positively correlate to lifespan. Is it the chronic nature of inflammation that makes it reduce lifespan? And if so, would it be reasonable to assume that chronic resistance training without enough recovery would actually be detrimental to lifespan via inflammation effects? I'd love to hear a more in-depth discussion on this.

Surprisingly, many a times labs inducate that those of us who have been megadosing on omega3s in isolation have develiped low levels of omega6 which is also a problem ! Few facts : 1. Your body needs an optimal Balance between omega 3 and omega 6, and NOT very low omega 6. 2. Your body needs Full spectrum omegas and not just omega 3.

Chris masterjohn had an article about this called how essential are the essential fatty acids I believe. His conclusion was that if you have good levels of all the vitamins and minerals that they basically appear to not be essential, or even if they are it’s nearly impossible not to get the amounts required through a varied omnivorous diet. Everyone is so afraid of seed oils because they promote inflammation, and they certainly can, but omega 3’a are even more unstable and prone to oxidation than omega 6’s. Most animals have a more saturated fatty acid profile in their body fat. The reason fish like salmon, trout, sardines etc don’t is because they live in cold water. All the studies on omega 3’s show a mixed bag of results but no improvement in lifespan, and most oils are already oxidized before you ingest them and even if they somehow aren’t they oxidize inside your 98 degree body.

@jlushefski 7 ай бұрын

If people were being genuine, they would note that pretty much every meaningful result regarding n-3s is observational. Also, they ignore the observation that there is an interspecies inverse correlation between general DHA and lifespan. *One* study with a monoacylglyceride shows a 14% increase in lifespan in *drosophila*--funded by the patent owner. Evidence is mixed, but Peat emphasizes that n-3 (pufa overall) are inherently sensitive to damage and antagonistic to respiration, which is undeniably true.

I'm more inclined to follow Chris Masterjohn regarding fish oil and the balance of AA/DHA. He says EPA is not even required and should be limited as much as possible. DHA and AA resolve inflammation nutritionally whereas EPA acts pharmacologically like a NSAID to inhibit AA metabolism which likely results in many side effects. He says the best and safest approach is to eat liver and/or egg yolks with a small amount of CLO for the DHA, Vitamin A and D.

I have 2 pet pevees with this. 1st of all, cod liver has a ton of omega 3s, 13g per 100grams ( canned ). Also beef/pork brain has 0.7g/100, you can easily eat 300/500gr per day

Cod liver has too much vitamin A to be a good source of omega 3.

i keep reading that these oils are impossible to store/ship without them going rancid. Do you have an opinion on this?

@rredding 8 ай бұрын

@@Werepizzaayou do have good quality fish oil, that is processed immediately. Look for Totox values, they measure the amount of oxidized (rancid) oil. I found one in my country that has a value around 5. They should be packaged airtight, dark, recent production date. Keep cold, for longer storage perhaps in deep freezer. If they taste fishy, it's probably rancid.

@sabincioflec8413 8 ай бұрын

@@Werepizzaa I don't think that is true, usually it has added vit E specifically for that purpose. Also i was talking about cod liver not cod liver oil, it tastes great, it's much milder then normal liver and has a good amount of vit A too.

Agree with many of the comments put forth here. What about Clarella and Spire Lena. Do they seem to have the contamination since a lot of this grown in far far East? I’m not sure if I really believe that every single human being needs these supplements. Being from India originally Longevity seems to be a thing a real thing and most people are vegetarians. So really question what Dr. Patrick says in this particular video

Love this video! I increased my omega 6:3 ratio from 11:1 to 1:1 in a few months, with herring, high quality fish oil and cod liver in its own oil. Bummer: In a recent RIVM report (Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment) published PFAS in tap water and food. Highest concentrations (up to 50x higher than in other foods) are found in cod liver. 😮

Yeah do I purposely opted for an algae based omega 3 from a third party verified brand. It was a bit of a search, but that’s the best you can take in my opinion. The reason fish have omega three is cause they eat algae which produce them, but then fish often have heavy metals in them and sometimes they swim through antibiotics and what not in the places where they are farmed so no thank you, I’ll stick with my algae based omega 3 supplement.

Very persuasive and informative video for those who practice ¨How Not to Age¨. I wonder if there is such a thing as eating too much Salmon, like for lunch and dinner, daily. Could that raise your total and LDL cholesterol levels. And isn´t cholesterol responsible for heart attacks and strokes, the leading cause of death. From my limited reading, a total cholesterol level of 150 is better than 200 in maintaining unobstructed arteries . So, is eating fish daily a wise practice.? At home, I eat a vegetarian diet, but while I was on a cruise, I ate salmon as stated above, for 74 days and my cholesterol level increased drastically. Is there something like ¨too much of a good thing¨
