Fish Oil, Full-Spectrum Omega-3s, and Immunometabolism with Dr. Jeffrey Bland: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Big Bold Health, about fish oil and omega-3 science. Bland recounts becoming involved with commercial fish oil in 1980 while promoting MaxEPA amid the “fat is bad” era and discusses Greenland Inuit research showing high omega-3 blood levels and low heart disease. They contrast whole-food omega-3 intake with highly refined EPA/DHA products, highlighting additional constituents in minimally processed oils (vitamins A and D, astaxanthin) and precursor compounds related to specialized pro-resolving mediators. Bland describes Omega-3 Rejuvenate's Alaska line-caught sourcing and low-heat, chemical-free processing, and addresses concerns about mercury, microplastics, and vitamin A dosing. The conversation also covers PLMI's focus on immunometabolism, a CBC-derived SIRI marker, omega-3 insufficiency data from Fullscript, mitochondrial membrane support by DHA, and Bland's upcoming book, “The Nourished Gene.”
Cholesterol Beyond the Basics: ApoB, Lp(a), Stress, and Aged Garlic Extract for Cardiovascular Risk: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews clinical pharmacist and nutritionist Jim LaValle about cardiovascular risk factors beyond total cholesterol, emphasizing that blood tests measure lipoprotein particles and subfractions rather than cholesterol itself. They discuss limitations of relying on surrogate markers, the role of lifestyle (diet, exercise, sleep, stress, glucose control), and advanced markers such as ApoB, Lp(a), oxidized LDL, and Lp-PLA2, noting that lowering Lp(a) or improving markers doesn't always improve outcomes. LaValle highlights ApoB as a key risk barometer, reviews evidence for aged garlic extract lowering ApoB, slowing coronary artery calcification, regressing vulnerable plaque, and improving vascular function, and supports combining supplements with appropriate medications. They address lean-mass hyper-responders on ketogenic diets, debate broad statin use in seniors, and cover stress/cortisol dysregulation, hormone effects, and appropriate use of GLP-1 drugs for weight and metabolic risk.

What if the answer to better health isn't always another prescription?In this episode of the Revelations Podcast, Reagan welcomes back Dr. George Kramer for a fascinating conversation about the history of medicine, the rise of the pharmaceutical model, and the growing return to natural and whole-person approaches to health.Dr. Kramer shares how his experience at Mayo Clinic and decades of practicing physical and integrative medicine shaped his approach to healing. They discuss how medicine moved from an emphasis on prevention, nutrition, lifestyle, and the body's natural ability to heal toward a system increasingly focused on diagnosing disease and treating symptoms with medication.They explore the importance of diet, exercise, sleep, morning light, breathing, stress reduction, gut health, vitamins and minerals, and spiritual health. Dr. Kramer also explains why he believes the mind, body, spirit, and soul should all be considered when looking at a person's health.You'll also hear personal stories about magnesium, migraines, atrial fibrillation, chronic pain, hormone health, prayer, and the surprising ways seemingly simple changes can make a difference.Dr. Kramer explains why he believes medicine is beginning to rediscover some of the principles that natural and integrative practitioners have emphasized for decades—and why patients can take a more active role in understanding and caring for their health.Most importantly, this conversation points back to a biblical perspective: our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, and caring for our health can be part of caring for what God has entrusted to us.Find more from Revelations Podcast hosted by Reagan Kramer: Website | Instagram | Apple Podcast | YoutubeBecome Part of Our Mission!

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Dana: My 8 year old niece lives in a Northern state and gets very itchy, irritated skin in the heat and has since she was about 3. In the summers it is almost impossible for her to enjoy being outside because she gets heat rashes or eczema type reactions and gets so itchy. Her pediatricians just say she has sensitive skin and give steroid cream to help, tell her to stay indoors, and have no further advice. They have done skin allergy tests with none found. If it's connected at all, she and her dad both have constant sinus fullness and drippy nose. What could be causing symptoms like this? Is there anything she can try without testing first to keep costs low? Tricia: Hi Dr Cabral, after two years of fighting with myself and trying everything, I'm considering trying a GLP, very low dosage. I know you don't recommend this but for your patients that are taking a GLP 1 drug are there any specific supplements you recommend they take while on this drug? Of course, DNS, D, Mag, Fish Oil, probiotic but what about hair supplement, eye heath, Metavolve, or digestive enzymes? I hear one of the side effects is heart burn. Would really appreciate guidance here. I'm giving it my all until January but deciding. Thank you so much! Luis: Hi Dr. Cabral, I've been having consistently sticky stools that cling to the toilet. They don't always appear mucousy, and they usually sink. Online sources often attribute this to low fiber, but it happens even when I eat fiber-rich foods like sea moss. I drink plenty of water, and my urine is almost always clear. My stools feel sluggish moving through my intestines, so I take Mag07 every night. Nearly every time I eat, I develop GI pain, mostly in my upper abdomen/chest and almost right away, and I often notice undigested food in my stool, especially plant matter. I've only been diagnosed with functional dyspepsia and mild gastritis (via endoscopy). My doctor also ran a stool test in 2024, and it came back normal. I occasionally have pale stools, so I also take UDCA regularly. Help. Anonymous: Hi Doc! I've worked long and hard on my health with lots of improvements and disease reversal. I still have Hashimotos which has slowing been improving through lifestyle changes. A lingering issue besides the Hashimotos is vericose/spider veins. All the women in my family have them and I started getting them in my 20s. I'm 37 now and they're only getting worse. The veins themselves don't seem to hurt, but my legs ache at the end of every day. Heat, sitting, and standing for long periods make it worse. They're so unsightly and I'm horribly frustrated that I can't heal my poor circulation. I'm very active and always moving. Clean whole food Mediterranean diet. No alcohol or smoking. I have to elevate my legs or sit in cold water to get any relief. Is this related to thyroid disorders? S: Hi Dr. Cabral. Would love to hear your thoughts on the studies that have recently been discussed about risks of glucosamine with brain health and who should not take this supplement. Dementias often start long before symptoms show up. I believe the studies showing risk to brain health with glucosamine were done on people with issues already. But if decline starts before symptoms, how would you know if it is safe for an individual? What is the benefit risk trade off? Any concerns or things to consider for this supplement? Additionally, would this be contraindicated if there is a family history or genetic predisposition such as an APOE4genotype? Thanks for taking the time to answer so many of our questions.

Leveling Up: Creating Everything From Nothing with Natalie Jill
If we are doing all the things in midlife and we still feel off. The brain fog. The bloating. The dull skin. The hormones that feel louder, not quieter. The recovery that takes three days from one glass of wine. This episode is for us. Because everyone keeps telling us the next step is hormones. HRT. Bioidenticals. Patches. Pellets. And those can absolutely help. But there are three quiet things slowing down in our bodies at the same time, and nobody is teaching us about them in plain English. The walls of our cells. Where hormones are supposed to knock and get a response. The body's trash truck. The thing that carries used hormones out of the body so they do not pile back up. The wallpaper lining our gut. The thing that keeps inflammation from running the whole show. All three slow down in midlife. That is why more hormones alone has not been the full answer for so many of us. My guest is Jessica Kane Berman, co-owner of BodyBio, a third-generation cellular health company her grandfather founded almost 30 years ago. Jessica walked through PCOS, fertility issues, mold, and Lyme, and she healed using the science her own family pioneered. We go through all three slowdowns in plain English, and we end with one thing we can do this week. This is the foundation underneath everything we are already doing. WE GO DEEP ON: • Why more hormones alone has not been the full answer in midlife • The three quiet things slowing down in our bodies at the same time • The walls of our cells, and why brain fog and dull skin are clues • The body's trash truck (bile), and why estrogen feels louder when it slows • The wallpaper lining our gut, and why food sensitivities and belly inflammation show up after 40 • Where HRT fits in (and why these three make HRT actually work) • What PC, TUDCA, and butyrate really do, in plain English • One simple thing to do this week if we are overwhelmed by where to start TIMESTAMPS • 00:00 | Why more hormones alone has not been the full answer • 06:00 | First slowdown. The walls of our cells. • 18:00 | Second slowdown. The body's trash truck. • 32:00 | Third slowdown. The wallpaper lining our gut. • 44:00 | All three together. Where HRT fits. • 52:00 | One thing to do this week. Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube
Immune Regulation, Omega-3 Nuance, and Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat with Dr. Austin Perlmutter, chief science officer of Big Bold Health. He details immune regulation as a nuanced, multidimensional system shaped by diet and lifestyle rather than simple “boosting.” Perlmutter explains Big Bold Health's focus on immunometabolism, educating about immune complexity, and conducting studies on nutraceuticals, including use of CGMs and clinical trials. He discusses why eating fish often outperforms refined fish-oil supplements, noting conventional processing (heat, bleaching, deodorizing, esterification) and loss of other lipids and nutrients. Perlmutter highlights specialized pro-resolving mediators (resolvins, protectins, maresins) and vitamins A and D as potentially better preserved in minimally processed oils, and reviews typical omega-3 intake and target ranges. The conversation also covers immunosenescence/inflammaging and Big Bold Health research on sprouted Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat, its high polyphenols (rutin, quercetin), microbiome effects, and studies including epigenetic aging clocks and brain outcomes.

Myostatin Blocker Hype vs. Reality, and Should You Still Take Omega-3s? In this Fourth of July Iron Radio episode, Coach Phil Stevens introduces a newly publicized myostatin-blocking drug, Trevogrumab (Regeneron), which promises dose-dependent muscle gain by blocking the myostatin pathway. Phil flags a viral social media clip hyping the compound, while noting that buried in early trial data is a troubling adverse event: 5 of 45 subjects experienced death. Dr. Lonnie Lowery and Dr. Mike T. Nelson dig into the science — what we know about myostatin knockout in animals and a rare German double-null child, the question of whether resistance training is even necessary with such a drug, and the dangers of underground use without sterility or verified sourcing. In the second segment, Dr. Lonnie covers a "clickbait" Supply Side Journal article questioning Omega-3 value based on preclinical and conflicting observational data. Dr. Mike discusses his decade-plus practice of testing red blood cell Omega-3 levels with Dr. Dibbus, targeting 8–9% RBC levels, current dosing considerations, and why farmed salmon's changed feed now makes supplementation even more critical. 00:00 Welcome and Hosts 01:27 Fourth of July News Episode Setup 01:46 Myostatin Blocker Trevogrumab Introduction 05:00 Trial Deaths and Safety Red Flags 07:53 Myostatin Science and Animal Models 10:27 Underground Use and Anecdotal Reports 13:00 Social Media Influence and Gen Pop Risk 16:07 Show Announcements and Promos 19:10 AI Check on Trevogrumab Side Effects 21:00 Golden Dilemma and Risk Acceptance 24:51 Omega-3 News: Clickbait or Real Science? 29:06 Phil on High-Dose Fish Oil History 30:21 Mike on Omega-3 Testing Protocol 34:00 Farmed Salmon and Supplement Rationale 35:48 Wrap and Happy Fourth of July Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie

Cardiovascular Protection Beyond Statins--Nattokinase, Vitamin K2 MK-7, and Clinical Cardio Six: Neil Levin of NOW Foods/Protocol for Life Balance details cardiovascular protection beyond cholesterol-lowering drugs, emphasizing nutrient sufficiency, therapeutic “nutraceutical” dosing, and physician partnership with testing. They discuss nattokinase from fermented natto (typical 2,000 fibrinolytic units/day), describing research on reduced fibrinogen, improved blood viscosity and microcirculation, blood-pressure normalization, and higher-dose data suggesting benefits for arterial thickness and lipids without excessive blood-thinning. They review vitamin K: K1 for normal coagulation (risk with Coumadin relates to day-to-day variability) and K2 for calcium metabolism, highlighting MK-7's longer half-life and potency versus MK-4 and recommending pairing K2 with vitamin D. Levin outlines PFLB Clinical Cardio Six (D3, L-carnitine, hawthorn leaf/flower, solubilized grape seed extract, CoQ10, MK-7), ingredient sourcing/testing, omega-3 benefits, red yeast rice context, and controversy around vitamin E meta-analyses.
Fish Oil Supplements And Alzheimer's-Related Decline A two-year randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial led by researchers at USC tested whether 2,000 mg of DHA fish oil daily could slow Alzheimer's-related brain changes in 365 adults ages 55–80 who rarely consumed fish and had at least one Alzheimer's risk factor. Researchers confirmed the supplement reached the brain by measuring a roughly 17% increase in cerebrospinal fluid DHA after six months. Despite successfully increasing brain DHA levels, participants taking fish oil showed no significant improvements in memory, global cognitive function, or hippocampal volume compared to placebo after two years. Host Dave Asprey explains why raising a single biomarker doesn't always translate into better brain performance, why nutrition works differently inside a complete dietary pattern than as an isolated supplement, and what this study means for anyone relying on fish oil as an Alzheimer's prevention strategy. Sources: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-06-fish-oil-supplements-alzheimer-decline.pdf https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/18/health/omega-3-fish-oil-algae-supplement-wellness ~~ DASH Diet Showed the Strongest Link to Long-Term Brain Health Researchers from Harvard analyzed dietary data from 159,347 participants across three long-running U.S. health studies to examine how eating patterns influence cognitive aging. Participants completed dietary questionnaires every four years over several decades, allowing investigators to compare six healthy dietary patterns, including the DASH and Mediterranean diets. While all six were associated with better cognitive health later in life, adherence to the DASH diet produced the strongest association, with participants showing roughly a 40% lower risk of subjective cognitive decline and stronger performance on objective cognitive testing. The protective relationship was strongest when healthy eating habits began during midlife. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why blood sugar control, lower inflammation, and healthier blood vessels may be the real drivers behind long-term brain resilience, and why your dietary choices in your 40s and 50s may have an outsized impact on cognitive aging decades later. Sources: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaneurology/article-abstract/2845466 https://www.health.harvard.edu/diet-and-nutrition/harvard-study-six-healthy-diets-linked-with-better-long-term-brain-health https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1117225 ~~ Scientists Identified an Ancient Brain Circuit That Filters Distractions Johns Hopkins researchers discovered a small population of inhibitory neurons within an evolutionarily ancient brainstem region that appears to control selective attention by determining which sensory information deserves focus and which distractions should be ignored. Mice trained on visual attention tasks consistently ignored irrelevant stimuli until researchers temporarily silenced these neurons, causing even weak distractions to hijack their attention while leaving vision and movement otherwise unaffected. Similar brain circuits exist in birds, reptiles, and other vertebrates, suggesting this attentional filtering system evolved long before the modern human cortex. Host Dave Asprey explains why attention may depend on much older brain circuitry than previously believed, how this discovery could reshape our understanding of ADHD and autism, and why future therapies may target the brainstem instead of the prefrontal cortex. Sources: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/06/260624025426.htm ~~ Nearly Half of Older Adults Improved With Age Instead of Declining A Yale-led study followed 11,340 adults age 65 and older for up to 12 years using repeated measurements of cognition and walking speed to better understand how aging changes over time. Rather than finding universal decline, researchers discovered that 45% of participants improved in either cognitive function, physical performance, or both. Nearly one-third experienced measurable cognitive improvements, while over one-quarter improved physically. Researchers also found that participants with more positive beliefs about aging were significantly more likely to improve, even after accounting for education, chronic illness, depression, and other health factors. Host Dave Asprey explores why expectations about aging may become biologically embedded, why decline is far less inevitable than conventional medicine often assumes, and how mindset may directly influence healthy longevity. Sources: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/06/260620100428.htm ~~ Glyphosate May Be Contributing to Antibiotic-Resistant Superbugs Researchers publishing in Frontiers in Microbiology examined 102 bacterial strains collected from hospitals, agricultural land, and protected wetlands to investigate whether glyphosate exposure contributes to multidrug antibiotic resistance. Hospital bacteria demonstrated extensive resistance to both antibiotics and glyphosate, while even bacteria living inside protected nature reserves displayed measurable glyphosate resistance despite no direct herbicide application. Genetic analysis suggested resistant bacterial strains may move between agricultural environments and hospitals through shared waterways and sediments. The researchers argue pesticide safety testing should also evaluate whether chemicals encourage antibiotic resistance, one of the world's fastest-growing public health threats. Host Dave Asprey explains why environmental toxins may have unintended effects on the human microbiome, how herbicides could influence antimicrobial resistance beyond farming, and why environmental biology increasingly belongs in conversations about human health. Sources: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/06/260620100434.htm https://www.openaccessgovernment.org/common-weedkiller-glyphosate-linked-to-rise-in-superbugs-scientists-warn/207515/ ~~ Butterflies That Barely Age Could Unlock New Longevity Pathways Researchers from the University of Bristol found that Heliconius butterflies live dramatically longer than closely related butterfly species while aging much more slowly. In one comparison, Heliconius hewitsoni survived up to 348 days, while a closely related species lived only 14 days. Unlike most butterflies, Heliconius feed on pollen throughout adulthood, providing amino acids that help preserve muscle function and physical performance with age. However, even when pollen was removed, these butterflies still significantly outlived their relatives, suggesting evolved genetic and metabolic mechanisms also contribute to their exceptional longevity. Host Dave Asprey explores why nature continues to provide unexpected models for slowing biological aging, what scientists hope to learn from species that naturally maintain function over time, and how comparative biology may uncover entirely new pathways for extending human healthspan.

Send us Fan MailHuman genetic variation in dietary fat metabolism and its implications for health & disease.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Linoleic Acid Rise: Linoleic acid now comprises 6-8% or more of energy in Western diets.Metabolic Pathways: Omega-6 linoleic acid converts to arachidonic acid and pro-inflammatory oxylipins; omega-3 ALA converts via shared enzymes to EPA/DHA with anti-inflammatory effects.FADS Genetic Variants: Ancestry-linked haplotypes in the FADS cluster create large “pipe” size differences, altering fatty acid by up to 40% between ancestral and derived versions.Population Differences: African ancestry populations often have high-conversion “big pipe” genotypes; Indigenous American ancestry populations have low-conversion “small pipe” genotypes; European ancestry comes with a mix of both.Omega-3 Deficiency: High linoleic intake suppresses EPA production, especially in small-pipe populations, contributing to hypertriglyceridemia and fatty liver in Mexican cohorts.Clinical Evidence: Reanalysis of VITAL trial showed 83% reduction in myocardial infarction with omega-3 supplementation in African Americans; Mexican data link low EPA to unique diabetes forms.Methodological Issues: Compositional data (from GC-FID measurements) versus absolute concentration measurements can flip relationships between linoleic acid and key biomarkers.ABOUT THE GUEST: Floyd Chilton PhD is Professor and Director of the Center for Precision Nutrition and Wellness at the University of Arizona. His research focuses on functional genomics, fatty acid metabolism, and precision nutrition, particularly how genetic ancestry influences responses to dietary fats.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 291: Omega Polyunsaturated Fats & Inflammation | Philip CalderSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners:AquaTru: Water filtration devices that remove microplastics, metals, bacteria, and more from your drinking water.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 5-14-2026: An emailer from Switzerland follows up on the case of neurological symptoms, warning about the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis from unwashed garden vegetables and tick-borne encephalitis requiring the FSME vaccine available in Europe. Dr. Dawn adds that cysticercosis from undercooked pork leaves calcified brain lesions detectable on CT scans. Dr. Dawn covers the Andes hantavirus outbreak that sickened at least eleven people on a cruise ship, with the virus spreading person-to-person unlike other hantaviruses. She explains that Andes virus grows to unusually high levels in blood and resists antimicrobial compounds in human saliva, with super-spreaders driving transmission chains. British paratroopers had to parachute medical supplies to an infected passenger on remote Tristan da Cunha island. Dr. Dawn reviews brain health supplements with UCLA longevity expert Gary Small. Both recommend curcumin (500-1,000mg) for anti-inflammatory effects and CoQ10 for statin users. She endorses multivitamins and high-quality fish oil but considers creatine, phosphatidylserine, and nicotinamide riboside insufficiently proven for cognitive enhancement. A caller asks about supplements and testosterone for a 77-year-old. Dr. Dawn recommends topical testosterone (patches, creams, gels) over injections to avoid testicular shrinkage and elevated sex hormone-binding globulin. She emphasizes protein intake matching one's age in grams, branched-chain amino acids during exercise, and warns against fasted training after age 65. An emailer shares news that PCOS is being renamed to polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS) because many patients lack ovarian cysts, and genetic males can also have the condition. Dr. Dawn explains it's fundamentally an endocrine and metabolic disorder involving insulin resistance, elevated testosterone, and DHEA dysregulation. A study found that infrasound—low-frequency sound below human hearing range—elevated cortisol and worsened mood in subjects who didn't know and couldn't detect it was playing. Old buildings generate infrasound through aging boilers, ventilation ducts, and metal pipes, potentially explaining why, beyond autosuggestion, that old "haunted" houses feel spooky.
Send us Fan MailHow omega-3 fats in human health, including dietary intake needs, supplements, & omega fat testing.TOPICS DISCUSSED:ω-3 chemistry: EPA and DHA differ from plant ALA in chain length and double-bond count, making them structurally and biologically distinct — and largely irreplaceable by ALA conversion.ALA-to-EPA/DHA conversion: A small percentage of dietary ALA converts to EPA, and conversion to DHA is even lower; vegans rely on this inefficient pathway for all long-chain omega-3s.Cardiovascular mechanisms: ω-3s lower triglycerides, reduce platelet stickiness, improve endothelial function, and slow resting heart rate, reducing cardiovascular risk.ω-3 Index: Defined as red blood cell EPA+DHA as a percent of total fatty acids; 8–12% is the target range, while most Americans sit around 4–5%.Brain & dementia risk: Higher DHA blood levels are associated with significantly lower risk of dementia and Alzheimer's in large cohorts including the UK Biobank and Framingham.Linoleic acid nuance: Higher blood levels of dietary linoleic acid (omega-6) associate with lower dementia and cardiovascular risk; downstream omega-6 metabolites — not linoleic acid itself — associate with adverse outcomes.Supplementation practicalities: Most people need 1–2 g/day of EPA+DHA to reach an ω-3 Index >8%; oxidation concerns with fish oil supplements may be overstated.ABOUT THE GUEST: Bill Harris, PhD is founder of both OmegaQuant Laboratory and the Fatty Acid Research Institute (Sioux Falls, SD), where his work centers on blood fatty acid biomarkers as predictors of disease risk in large population cohort studies.KNOW YOURSELF:OmegaQuant: At-home blood testing to see fatty acid profiles, including omega-3 fatty acids.

Send us Fan MailHow dietary fatty acids regulate the initiation, propagation, and resolution of inflammation.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Parenteral nutrition history: IV nutrition evolved from soybean oil alone in the 1960s to complex blends including fish oil as the biology of ω-3s became understood.Three phases of inflammation: Initiation, propagation (driven by ω-6–derived prostaglandins and leukotrienes), and active resolution (driven by ω-3-derived resolvins and protectins).Pro-resolving mediators: Resolution is an active biological process, not passive; EPA and DHA generate resolvins and protectins that actively terminate inflammation.Aspirin's ω-3 mechanism: Aspirin inhibits arachidonic acid metabolism but allows EPA/DHA to access COX-2, upregulating pro-resolution mediators — a likely underappreciated mechanism of action.Cell membrane competition: EPA and DHA physically displace arachidonic acid in membranes, shifting the balance of mediators produced and improving resolution capacity.Linoleic acid & EPA synthesis: High linoleic acid intake saturates shared desaturase enzymes, inhibiting the body's conversion of ALA to EPA — meaning reducing ω-6 can raise ω-3 levels without supplementation.Dose & timing of ω-3 incorporation: ~2g/day of EPA+DHA shifts the arachidonic acid-to-EPA ratio enough to measurably reduce prostaglandin E2 production; white blood cells reflect changes within a month.ABOUT THE GUEST: Philip Calder, PhD is Professor of Nutritional Immunology in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Southampton. His research focuses on how dietary fatty acids — particularly omega-3s — modulate immune responses and inflammatory processes across clinical and healthy populations.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 200: Dietary Fats & Seed Oils in Inflammation, Colon Cancer & Chronic Disease | Tim Yeatman & Ganesh HaladeSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners:AquaTru: Water filtration devices that remove microplastics, metals, bacteria, and more from your drinking water.

Most people buying "clean" supplements are unknowingly loading their bodies with heavy metals, rancid fish oil, and glyphosate, even inside products labeled organic and healthy. This episode breaks down exactly what the supplement industry refuses to tell you and gives you the tools to stop poisoning yourself every morning. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Grab a discount on Puori Products by visiting: https://puori.com/pages/dave?dt_id=1750934 Host Dave Asprey sits down with Oliver Amdrup-Chamby, founder and CEO of PUORI and a serial entrepreneur in the health and wellness space with over 16 years building what has become one of the most rigorously tested supplement brands in the world. Oliver opened the first CrossFit gym in Denmark in 2006, served as Regional Director of CrossFit HQ across Europe and the Middle East, holds an Executive Program credential from Stanford, and advises longevity projects including One Thirty Labs in Copenhagen. He founded PUORI in 2009 with a single obsession: creating the cleanest third-party tested fish oil on the market. That obsession grew into a full supplement line built on batch testing every finished consumer product for environmental toxins, a standard the industry has yet to catch up to. Together, Dave and Oliver expose the hidden contamination crisis inside the supplement industry, from oxidized fish oil that creates inflammation instead of fighting it, to plant-based protein powders carrying up to 10 times more heavy metals than whey. They break down why organic does not mean safe, how glyphosate embeds itself directly into your collagen infrastructure and disrupts the body's ability to build healthy connective tissue, and why the omega 3 index is one of the most powerful and measurable longevity biomarkers you are probably ignoring. They also dig into the surprising brain optimization and anti-aging benefits of creatine, including new research on concussion recovery and sleep deprivation, and how foundational supplements like vitamin D, magnesium, and high-quality fish oil remain the non-negotiables that no nootropic stack can replace. You'll Learn: Why organic protein powder often contains more heavy metals than non-organic options How glyphosate infiltrates collagen and gets rebuilt into your body's own tissue What the omega 3 index is, why most Americans are dangerously low, and how raising it correlates with years of additional longevity Why plant-based omega 3s fail to convert to DHA and what to take instead How oxidized fish oil creates inflammation rather than reducing it, and what to look for on the label Why vitamin D deficiency persists even with regular sun exposure and how genetics affect your required dose The creatine research that has longevity doctors and neuroscientists paying attention for the first time How foundational supplements support mitochondria, metabolism, and long-term resilience in ways that trendy biohacking stacks cannot replicate What to look for in a clean supplement brand and why third-party batch testing of finished goods is the only standard that matters Thank you to our sponsors!

Most of them went silent. Fish oil is one of the most well-researched supplements on the market — but there's a side of the industry that never makes it onto the label. Fish oil oxidizes easily, bioaccumulates heavy metals, and can carry persistent organic pollutants like PCBs and dioxins. When the oil is rancid or contaminated, you're not just wasting money. You may be actively promoting the inflammation you're trying to fight. Dr. Christian Gonzalez contacted 44 fish oil brands and asked for one thing: independent third-party testing on the finished product. Real documentation. Proof. 37 companies ignored the request entirely. One refused. One opted out. Only five brands provided full transparency — and some of the biggest names in the category were nowhere to be found. In this episode, Dr. G covers: • How oxidation turns your fish oil from anti-inflammatory to pro-inflammatory • The heavy metals and contaminants you should always be testing for • Why potency on the label frequently doesn't match what's in the capsule • The five fish oil companies that earned a spot on the 2026 transparency list If you take fish oil daily, this episode will completely change how you shop for it.

If you're only lifting weights to build muscle… you might be leaving serious gains on the table. In this episode, the guys break down why strength training alone isn't always enough, and how adding the right forms of cardio, mobility work, recovery, and even modalities like Pilates can actually improve muscle growth, performance, and longevity. They explain how your "gas tank" (cardiovascular fitness) can limit your strength, why mobility unlocks more muscle potential, and how tools like sauna use and recovery strategies can enhance results without overtraining. The conversation also expands into modern stress, community, and why human connection may be one of the most overlooked factors in overall health and resilience. Plus, they dive into new research on fish oil and mental health, and share some wild fitness and animal facts along the way.
