Anything that I got wrong?

Anything you want to add to what I had to say?

Yeah, that's great.

And, you know, people are always worried about...

What about mercury and heavy metals and other things like that?

And yeah, you know, our oceans are polluted.

There are problems that are out there, but it's a very nuanced topic.

And I'll link to an article that was written by a friend of mine who's a researcher, a clinician, and sort of, I would say, a citizen scientist in the field of assembling all the data that's out there and making an argument.

His name is Chris Kresser.

He used to run the California Center for Functional Medicine and he publishes very regularly.

And he's making the argument that, you know, even though you do have fish that has, you know, high levels of, can have sometimes higher levels of like mercury, certain fishes or other potential heavy metals that are out there.

as long as there's a certain level of selenium that's inside of the diet naturally that those heavy metals selenium can offer a protective effect against them and they're sort of transient they kind of come in and they go out they're not sort of absorbed inside of the body is the argument that's made it's a super nuanced topic and i know people have all sorts of different feelings on that and there are many companies that are out there that are sourcing better quality

So there's a big one, again, no affiliation with, I'll link to it in the show notes, where they specifically source from areas where they have different fish that have been tested in the supply chain of having lower levels of heavy metals, plastics, and other things that people are worried about.

So there's a lot of solutions that are out there.

Yeah, great.

All great options.

Okay, fitness, sleep, nutrition.

We're now on to four and number five.

What's number four we want to talk about?

There was a section in the book where I just wanted to highlight it.
