Episode #6: Omega-3
Manage episode 402536321 series 3549972
In this episode, we unveil the critical significance of Omega-3 fatty acids in human evolution.
Did you know our brains are composed of 70% fat, with nearly two-thirds being DHA, an Omega-3 fatty acid? Omega-3s, primarily found in fish, not only promote brain health but also help lower blood pressure and cortisol levels.
Discover why 'SMASH' fish—sardines, mackerel, anchovies, salmon, and herring—are essential for obtaining Omega-3s, thanks to their high content and low mercury levels. Alternatively, explore plant-based sources like hemp seeds, flax seeds, and walnuts for Omega-3s.
This episode offers profound insights into the pivotal role of Omega-3s in human brain development and overall health. Learn how to optimize your well-being and longevity with this essential nutrient!
