Something different this week: host Corinna Bellizzi appears as a guest on The Forever Young Radio Show, hosted by her longtime colleague Kelly Cappasola. In this wide-ranging conversation, Corinna shares the science behind her pivot from fish oil to algae omega-3s, why farmed fish are now higher in omega-6 than omega-3, how to get your omega-3 levels tested for $50, and the five natural products brands at the center of her PhD dissertation research at Prescott College. She introduces what she calls the "regenerative renegades" — purpose-driven companies that do it right not because it's fashionable, but because it's the only way they know how to operate — and shares where Circle B and her book project are heading next.
