The Mind-Blowing Science of Omega-3 Fatty Acids for Heart Health, Brain Health and Longevity (Rebroadcast)

So people are trying to come up with enriched foods that you can feed to people in the military that will give them omega-3. And those products are out there. But it's been a shame that people who ought to have the sharpest executive function, the best physical shape, the best resilience are not being fed optimally. And I'm sorry about that, but it's the way it was.

Right. Right. And truck drivers and airplane pilots, you know, and people who, you know, you don't want to have sudden cardiac arrest if you're driving a truck or flying an airplane. Except you got another guy in the airplane. cover for you. In the truck, you don't. Anyway, that's just another little pet peeve of mine that these people that drive these rigs on these highways, pretty crappy hell.

Yeah, yeah. We typically say that if you're going to start to move your needle, and again, I say pick an example, omega-3 index of 5, and you want to go to 8, that takes about 1,000 milligrams a day. And it will take you about three to four months before you will actually hit a new steady state. It's going to be going up slowly, slowly, slowly as the red blood cells get incorporated with omega-3.

It takes time. But then after around three or four months, you're going to be where you're going to be. And that's the time to retest, to see where you are at that point, to see how well you absorb whatever product you're using. Is it really working for you or not? Or do you need to take more or not? So really, we're not talking about years. We're not talking about days.

Yeah, yeah. And again, I think... So many people miss the point. They see 1,000 milligrams on a label of a fish oil pill, not realizing that that's the fish oil, that's not the omega-3. Right. You need to look at the label, see how much omega-3 EPA, DHA you're getting, and then get 1,000 of that, which might take 3,000 milligrams of fish oil to get 1,000 milligrams of EPA, DHA, if it's-
