The Key Nutrient that Reduces Inflammation and the Risk of Heart Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease that 95% of Americans Don't Get Enough Of

This episode is brought to you by Maui Nui and Birch Living. What if a single nutrient could protect your brain, fight inflammation, and add healthy years to your life? Omega-3 can do all that and yet, over 95% of people are running on empty. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we’re revisiting one of our most talked-about moments with Dr. Bill Harris. He shares groundbreaking research linking high omega-3 levels to Alzheimer’s and dementia prevention, and how omega-3s can help reduce overall chronic inflammation. Dr. Harris also reveals what’s considered optimal for omega-3 levels, the shocking range most Americans fall into, and how this widespread deficiency is closely tied to the overconsumption of ultra-processed foods. William S. Harris, PhD, FASN, has been a leading researcher in the omega-3 fatty acid field for 40 years. He has authored over 300 scientific papers on fatty acids and health, has been on the faculty of three medical schools, and has received five NIH grants to study omega-3. He co-authored three AHA statements on fatty acids and heart health. As the co-inventor of the Omega-3 Index (and other omega-3 blood tests) and founder of OmegaQuant Analytics, Dr. Harris has been ranked among the top 2% of scientists worldwide based on the impact of his research.
