- 80% of people globally (and ~95% of people in the US) don't get enough EPA & DHA. Why does this matter? For one, just as many deaths per year are attributable to trans fans as they are to not consuming enough EPA/DHA. Other key benefits of EPA/DHA include reduced inflammation (a key driver of the aging process) and protection against disuse atrophy.
In this video, expect to learn why it's a huge mistake for pregnant women to avoid fish, why having a low omega-3 intake is comparable to smoking, and more.

My girlfriend’s grandma (age 96) & great aunt (99) grew up in Newfoundland and fish was the primary souce of protein throughout their lives. Her grandma passed last year but her great aunt still lives alone and is very independent. I’m amazed that she has all her mental faculties and can hold conversations recalling stories of her younger years.
fish is a brainfood omega 3 comes from it. people with low omega 3 and vit d get diagnosed with mentall illness alot
I'm from newfoundland and there is a company from here that makes an omega 3 supplement from seal. I take them regularly and would love to know where it stands on the "marine" Omega scale as Rhonda discusses.
The best way to get nutrition. nutrition ivs and nutrition injections myers cocktail iv, nad+iv, vitamin d injection, gluadathione iv and coq10 injection. way better then supplements. they been aroundd since the 1950s and thats what pro athletes and rich people use year round to stay healthy. only take a good liquid fish oil.

In 2008 I started getting some hip pain in my left hip. It soon began in my right hip. I asked my GP about it and he said "let me know when it gets bad enough and we will schedule your hip replacement surgery." The pain gradually got worse til in 2013 it was bad enough that I quit a hike and came home early. I figured it would get debilitating so I wanted to have one more good volcano season first. So I started taking new supplements that would help my strength and stamina. In early 2014 I noticed that my hip pain was gone. I had a great season hiking 260 miles, 75,000 feet & some great volcanos. After volcano season I stopped all my new supplements. My hip pain came back. I started resuming them one at a time to see which cured my hip pain. It was EPA/DHA. I took EPA/DHA for a year. No hip pain. I stopped EPA/DHA. The pain came back. I resumed EPA/DHA. It is now 2024. I am 74 years old and still have no hip pain. I am taking pills that have 500mg of EPA and 250mg of DHA, 4 per day. I have tried several brands. They all work.
👍 Great info, thanks.
wow! How many hip replacement surgeries could be prevented with a simple supplement?
Off topic but you also mentioned Norwegians and infra red saunas. All the same? And what about sauna blankets ? Thanks!!
@Yapoah Excellent. Very pleased that Omega 3s have helped you so much. So may I ask if you are taking 3 grams a day total of EPA/DHA?
@@stevenrobertson4190 Yes. 2g EPA 1g DHA
🌷 Thank you so much for getting this information out to people, I so appreciate it!
Dr. Patrick, you're the best!
This information has been a landmark step on my journey of good health and long a long life. Thank you, Rhonda.
I'm just a mathematician (from Denmark) with an interest in nutrition. I am happy that TH-cam recommended your video that I find highly interesting! Thank you very much from a new subscriber.
cool
The future will only provide information to help you if the government values you as a productive person. We will all be judged. The algorithms are already doing this. Information like this will not occur for many as our food sources become more scarce. I already know what it's like having all the algorithms go against you. They make it hard for you to learn about any knowledge to help yourself. They are worried about overpopulation.

Thanks for making these videos shorter. Appreciate it. Quality content as usual.
Thank you for this excellent video, Rhonda.
Thank you for going on that tangent about mercury in fish. My mom loves fish and I know it’s a great source of omega-3, but I would sometimes worry about how pollutants would affect her health. I’m glad to know that the omega-3’s counteract at least mercury.
It wasn’t totally clear if you were also saying that it counteracts other pollutants commonly fish.
I’m eager to find out more about this .
Have been following your channel for a long time now. Always useful and scientifically supported information 👍 thank you!
Thankful for your contributions.
Very helpful, excellent slides too
Hi Dr Patrick , I enjoy your knowledge and hope You
never stop sharing … Oh , I think YOU are flirting with a possible nomination for a Nobel Prize … Go for it ! 😊
She is a beautiful person and I’m grateful for her, and her work. 🙏🏼
Fish oil lowered my triglycerides 30 points in two months. Nordic Naturals has a lemon flavor liquid no big pills and very pure.
How much EPA and DHA did you take daily? I want to lower my triglycerides. Thank uou..
@chazbo3071fun 1000mg EPA/DHA daily has helped lower my Triglycerides from 1.53 to 0.67 (now down from 2.53 a year ago). Note: 2.53 down to 1.53 was from Statins (then I plateaud)
The wild fish oils took it down even further. Using Kirkland (Costco) Omega's (figure I'd start with an easier brand of fish oil to start with).
That's great! My triglycerides have always have been around 100 but recently were 150. I just started taking Carlson's fish oil on days I don't eat fish.@@51249ca
I take the wileys finest but it messed with my stomach to begin with
I take the same. For me it’s a very noticeable yet subtle improvement in cognition, mental recall of all sorts and I swear it keeps my appetite in check. I know more is going on as well but those are the obv benefits for me. I also eat canned sardines and salmon everyday on top of it just cause I love them and it’s the perfect meal for lifting weights. I feel cleaner and lighter. If that makes any sense. YMMV
super interesting!
when I was younger my stepdad was a commercial fisherman so we ate fish all of the time, and the best quality too. We ate fish majority of nights including clams, crabs and so on, in retrospect when I think about those times I remember how I was at the top of my class, never dealt with depression/anxiety (even though life wasn’t so easy) & I also had great blood work. I was 10-16 at this time. Now I’m 21, eat seafood maybe once a month or less and feel like I notice a change and it’s much harder for me to do well in school, stay focused, bloodwork is wacky, interesting to say the least. Not sure if there’s a connection but gonna make sure I get my fish oil in at least
What kind of fish did you eat and where did you live?
@@hikerJohn Pacific Northwest, we ate salmon, tuna, crab, shrimp, cod, trout, and so on. Mostly tuna crab and salmon since every year those were the fishing seasons
You might try Lions mane.
eat a can of sardines a day!! they're delicious

@@annelizabethnugent6089So go to those places and leave us here alone, ya weirdo
I would be very curious to see a podcast episode specifically on inflammation in the body.
I say this because, while I am aware of the literature linking chronic inflammation with reduced lifespan, inflammation also plays a role in processes like muscle hypertrophy, which is shown to positively correlate to lifespan.
Is it the chronic nature of inflammation that makes it reduce lifespan? And if so, would it be reasonable to assume that chronic resistance training without enough recovery would actually be detrimental to lifespan via inflammation effects?
I'd love to hear a more in-depth discussion on this.
thanks very much Rhonda
Just brilliant! In a nutshell, evidence based scientific research that can change our lives, longevity and well-being. And great debunking of the fear mongering associated with eating fish, seafood and mercury content. Such critically important information and has been shared with family, friends everywhere. Many thanks Rhonda!
A D-3 5kIU and an omega 3-6-9 before bed helps me stay asleep better.
Krill oil is taken in morning routine.
I'll try this, thanks
Thanks for all the great information. If you take Vascepa, which contains only EPA, should you also supplement with DHA? Thanks for your response.
Good physician with an informative way to stay healthy. Listen to this physician.
She is not a physician
Great overview thanks
Thank you, Rhonda. Viewing this video made me take omega-3 supplement
Off topic, but Dr Patrick looks even healthier than she ever has. I never miss watching anything she produces. I recently switched to an IFOS approved fish oil brand because of her. Thanks!
This is an old video.
😂
hello.... woman are magicians at looking good
@brianwnc8168
nice information given here thank you
Thank you for the info. I grew up getting no Omega 3s. Parents still get none.
I had no idea! Thank you!
Thanks for the video! How much salmon should someone eat every day to get their Omega 3's up to 8% as you mentioned in the video?
I would be interested to hear Dr Rhoda Patrick’s take on C15 fatty acid.
Its the new essential fatty acid better than Omega3, Rapamycin, Metamorphin and acarbose
Can you do a simple list of what should be taken?
Glad I just watched this by chance.
"...nature is capable..." is funny to hear...
Thank you very much for more from you, ms. Patrick!!!
Thank you for clearing a very complicated deficiency issue. “Nothing to do with plant based or marine omegas. Everything to do with our own genetic expressions.”
How would “icosapent ethy” interact with the genetic mutations that doesn’t take advantage of the omegas?
Flax seed is very poorly absorbed no matter what. Most people only take in less than 1%. Waste of money.
Dr. Patrick, do you regard it as generally safe for a person, in overall general good health, to consume wild caught salmon or sardines on a daily basis?
I try to include seafood in my diet but I live in a landlocked state so it’s not easy. I do supplement with cod liver oil and the neurological benefits I’ve experienced are huge!
Excellent 👍 Tq Rhonda
GREAT INFO.👍
So, am I correct to believe.. if a woman is post- menopausal- and has low to No estrogen.. it is a good idea to supplement a plant based diet with an Omega 3 supplement? Or choose to eat small fatty fish 3x week? Any concerns about link of these Omega 3 supplements to cancer metastasis? (As I heard about a prostate study that linked this)
Surprisingly, many a times labs inducate that those of us who have been megadosing on omega3s in isolation have develiped low levels of omega6 which is also a problem !
Few facts :
1. Your body needs an optimal Balance between omega 3 and omega 6, and NOT very low omega 6.
2. Your body needs Full spectrum omegas and not just omega 3. Full spectrum omega complex will have omegas 3-5-6-7-9-11 !
Excellent info from Dr. Rhonda Patrick. A bit leery on the Omega-3 offsetting mercury poisoning though.
Personally, I'm a ovo-pescatarian that is mainly plant based. I eat fish 2-3 times per week and eggs when I go out for breakfast. Not a big fan of supplements, though I do take a D3 and on occasion magnesium and B multivitamin. Having said that, it seems that a lot of people should consume an Omega-3 if deficient (as pointed out).
If you take D3, you should consider pairing it with K2. Make sure your B complex doesn't contain folic acid. Opt for folate instead. 😉
@@rossstevens6165 sardines are omnivorous. They eat plankton, including zooplankton .
@@Engrave.Danger Thanks, I guess I just need to stop eating.
@@rossstevens6165 I wouldn't suggest that. I eat them a couple of times a week and minimize omega-6 intake the rest of the week. If you're worried about mercury, spend some time in the sauna and consider supplementing chlorella. 💚
Does Krill oil satisfy this need?
Love to abide to this ! Just hope it really helps! Good stuff is pricey
Dr Patrick is one of my very few go-to nutrition & fitness resources. I now eat 1-2 cans of sardines daily
Did she promote the clot shot?? Lol
All I can say is I followed her after the fact and nobody’s perfect not even Dr. Roger Sehuelt☹️
@@jimbort_de_breces fair enough, I use to listen to her but after she came out in support of the clot shot.... i take what she says with a grain of salt!!!!

Watch your mercury levels
Is this a newer study than the dart study? Is there a good explanation for the results of dart 2 study that showed an increase in mortality with fish oil supplementation
I support your inference that omega-3 acids are very important. However, there is a need for a clearer presentation of what we know so far. Not all formulations
of omega-3 have shown to be equally effective. Please look at the JELIS trial in Japan and REDUCE-IT trials that focused on icosapent ethyl (EPA); also how at higher concentrations of EPA (> 2g/day) there is a risk of AFib and bleeding. There is a huge amount of recent activity on EPA within the cardiovascular community and definitely needs to be included in any balanced presentation on omega-3s.
Recently, Dr. Mercola seems to have done a U turn on omega 3s based on George Dinkov and Ray Peat's theories. What do you think?
I have systemic vasculitis. I got the idea of a can of sardines every day from you. Not sure if you explained this but it takes a few weeks for the omega-3's to saturate your cells, just in case people were expecting something immediate. Besides omega-3, my stack includes fisetin, magnesium l-threonate, vit D3 and I'll usually rotate some others in there, such as alpha lipoic acid. As the first responder, I can usually keep this beast at bay, at least until I get the doctors involved.

Curious, do you take your magenesium threonate at night or morning?
I take it at suppertime, only because my disease and/or treatments have given me a sleep disorder, that can cause vivid dreams, if I take Mg at bedtime. @@NoCoArts
The active ingredient in rat poison D-Con is so-called Vitamin D3. Yes you are eating rat poison when you supplement your diet with it.

In case they don't answer, it's better to take it an hour or more before bed.
Nordic Natural ProOmega 2000 has 2150mg total omega3 (1125mgEPA, 875DHA) in a serving (2 pills). So is it reccomended we take two servings a day (4 pills)?
I love smoked wild caught salmon with my eggs for breakfast. However, I heard that counted as "processed meat" and was bad for you just like processed deli meats are and you should avoid it. Any thoughts on that?
For good or bad, processed meat means sodium nitrite. Smoked salmon, traditional smoked salmon, contains smoke chemicals that may be carcinogenic, but there's no evidence of that, and if you chose to dig into it, people who eat smoked salmon have better health outcomes than people who don't... much like Rhonda talking about mercury! Wild salmon is wicked healthy.
All meat is processed
Thats ridiculous. Thats a very healthy meal. Everything wont be perfect. We have to do our best.
@7:23 "There's also evidence that it's related to cardio vascular related mortality as well".
Effect of omega-3 fatty acids on cardiovascular outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis (Aug 2021):
"The effects of omega-3 fatty acids (FAs), such as eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids, on cardiovascular outcomes are uncertain".
Can anyone cite a study that shows differently? I'd be interested to find out more, thanks.
I have always taken fish oil, but I am warming up to algae oil. As a more sustainable option. Just wish it was cheaper.
May I ask how much does it cost for 1 full gram of EPA/DHA?
OMG just realized I'm bingeing her
Same. I love her content, the way she arguments and lays out her ideas. I found her content to be very enriching.

omega 3 supplements sky rocketed my bilirubin,do you have any ideas about that?
Dr.Patrick, what are your thoughts on the new supplement Fatty 15?
Very persuasive and informative video for those who practice ¨How Not to Age¨. I wonder if there is such a thing as eating too much Salmon, like for lunch and dinner, daily. Could that raise your total and LDL cholesterol levels. And isn´t cholesterol responsible for heart attacks and strokes, the leading cause of death. From my limited reading, a total cholesterol level of 150 is better than 200 in maintaining unobstructed arteries . So, is eating fish daily a wise practice.? At home, I eat a vegetarian diet, but while I was on a cruise, I ate salmon as stated above, for 74 days and my cholesterol level increased drastically. Is there something like ¨too much of a good thing¨
hi Dr. Patrick, there are some updates on Consumerlab, regarding fish oil supplementation, stating that healthy people (no cardiovascular disease) who supplement fish oil might be at a higher risk (13%) of developing atrial fibrillation and stroke (5%). Any thoughts on that?
Just read it myself, would love to here Rhonda's thoughts on it aswell 🙏
what is re-esterfied triglyceride form? Does "re-esterfied" matter?
Rhonda, what are your thoughts on people like ray peat who claim that polyunsaturated fats cause more harm than good? Would love it if you looked into it. Thank you
Not all polyunsaturated fats are created equal. Check out “The big fat surprise” to gain a better understanding of the fat world.
I second this
Chris masterjohn had an article about this called how essential are the essential fatty acids I believe. His conclusion was that if you have good levels of all the vitamins and minerals that they basically appear to not be essential, or even if they are it’s nearly impossible not to get the amounts required through a varied omnivorous diet. Everyone is so afraid of seed oils because they promote inflammation, and they certainly can, but omega 3’a are even more unstable and prone to oxidation than omega 6’s. Most animals have a more saturated fatty acid profile in their body fat. The reason fish like salmon, trout, sardines etc don’t is because they live in cold water. All the studies on omega 3’s show a mixed bag of results but no improvement in lifespan, and most oils are already oxidized before you ingest them and even if they somehow aren’t they oxidize inside your 98 degree body.
If people were being genuine, they would note that pretty much every meaningful result regarding n-3s is observational. Also, they ignore the observation that there is an interspecies inverse correlation between general DHA and lifespan. *One* study with a monoacylglyceride shows a 14% increase in lifespan in *drosophila*--funded by the patent owner. Evidence is mixed, but Peat emphasizes that n-3 (pufa overall) are inherently sensitive to damage and antagonistic to respiration, which is undeniably true.
I have beta thalassemia which affects my RBC's mcv. I produce smaller RBCs but more and as a result my HbA1c measurement is always inaccurate (much lower than reference range). Is there an alternate test I can take?
So it sounds like ALA could be useful to lower estrogen levels?
Can you explain why here in Quebec the nutritionist community is telling us that a new study showed and recommends to stop consuming omega-3 supplements?
Physical inactivity, smoking and Low socioEconomic Status (SES) are the top three preventable causes of early death.
Good thing EPA allows smokers to live longer then.
Being poor is not a cause of early death. Stop lying.
@@benwilliams3539 Yes it is. through low quality food and inadequate living conditions. Stop commenting
@@hikerJohn no. Healthy food is cheaper than junk food. Exercise costs nothing. You just blame everyone and everything except yourself and your own decisions.
@@benwilliams3539 Tell that to the homeless masses. I'm not blaming ANYONE. Do you even have a brain? I'm rich and living in luxury and I'm way above average health for my age. Starches, sugars and oils are the cheapest foods (cost per calorie) and protein is the most expensive and you need a stove unless you want to eat live mice like a coyote. Yeah, talk about hole foods . . . And what about health care??? Rich people get cancer and all kinds of illnesses but they can afford doctors. You need to THINK man . . .
Thank you for an in depth fact based discussion. My understanding is that supplements of fish oil have been shown to be highly oxidised and rancid so consumption of small fish is recommended over supplementation.
Does Rhonda have any access to studies proving / disproving this?
Yep, I’ve seen the same results of rancidity of commercially available fish oil products.
It leads me to think though - since heat is an oxidative stressor…won’t cooking fish cause the oils to go rancid too?
@@Luis_Baruchno - especially if grilled or baked
@@nisardar2652 Great. Do you have a source?
Freezing helps to limit oxidation after purchase but not a guarantee it is good on the shelf or buy only in the winter?

Take a look at Nordic Naturals
Haven't watch the video yet. Want to ask this question before I forget. I can't take fish oil anymore because I have a brain cavernoma that starter bleeding and I can't take anything that thins the blood. What's a good supplement to take to increase omega 3s that won't thin the blood
Alge omega 2
Alge omega 3
Don't take supplements because you want a lower concentration of blood thinner, maybe eat small amount of sea food or do grass fed meats.
Great!!!
I figured it out with her it’s the tangents 😢 impossible to follow sometimes still trying!!
But where do you find supplements that actually contain what they're supposed to contain?
I’ve been using Nordic and having Omega check as part of my annual physical along with Vitamin D.
Question: if the only oil I eat is Ghee (also don't eat any nuts or dryfruits), do I still need to take omega 3s?
Yes. Omega-3 fatty acids only can be obtained by the diet or by supplemantation. Eat sardines or buy a high quality fish oil.
EPA is only from marine source, but should be ok if majority of omega 3 come from elsewhere.
How much do we need daily optimally?
Am I understanding this correctly? A daily dose of around 800 - 1,000 mg of EPA & DHA combined is generally enough to get you to the >8%?
Is 8% enough daily?
Is it true that fish oil (say cod liver oil) may aggravate or cause a mild form of afib? If true than why and how does this sometimes occur with supplementation??
I take at bedtime, helps during hydration period..
I am considering a live caught salmon, eggs and Olive Oil diet any thought out there on this?
Add broccoli and berries and you'll be healthy AF.
I don't trust sources of olive oil anymore. There isn't enough produced to satisfy world production so its cut with seed oils no matter the brand.
What about the ratio of EPA to DHA Being 2/3:1
Some omega products have warnings about lead should I worry
Good to know I'm extremely healthy. EPA every day, with flax as well.
I wish you would go in depth on the sourcing and supplement quality. The lab grade product used in these studies is not the same as 99.99% of what's sold on the market with all the environmental pollutants and contaminants. Would also be interesting to see you cover algae oil, which would be a direct source of omega-3. Fish do not produce omega-3 so why not discuss marine plants?
The concentration of Omega-3 in marine plants too low. You will need a ton of it every day.
Nordic Naturals is best.

Is there any evidence to show that supplementing omega 3's has the same benefit of getting enough omega 3's from fish sources?
I've just come across info suggesting that over supplementation of omega 3s can cause heart arrythmia. As someone who genetically has this issue anyway this has led me to momentarily cease taking the tablets (3 days in now). Does anyone have further concrete info on this?

I think historically that when the British French American ships rolled the seven seas these adventurers ate lots of seafood and also opened their eyes to the world creating genius people like Charles Darwin, to Trains Plains and Automobiles electricity grids and computers, that era for the west is now over. China owns most of Australian waters fishing licences while Aussies still get fluoride and other industrial waste nuerotoxins in tap water and forced tainted mrna products while seafood prices locally go through the roof.

so how much should i take again?
What about supplementing omega 3 for kids and baby’s?
In mu experience, I don’t think they need it as long as they have a proper diet… I started giving my kids omega-3 when they started becoming more independent with eating out (change to secondary school as of 12 yo). I have less control over what they eat and want to make sure they do get enough…

Dr. would it be healthier to eat smaller cold water fish?, They’re smaller and their lifespan is shorter. I would guess less concentration of heavy metals.?
Studies show your assumption to be correct that smaller fish have less mercury, though mercury may possibly stay in the body longer than omega-3s so a low mercury algae or fish oil supplement should still be considered in my opinion.
@@joeljong931 thank you for that confirmation. I appreciate you Dr
I have a question. Can i take Omega 3, D3 and K2 together?
Yes, Vitamin-D3 K2 is perfect with conjunction of a high quality Omega-3. Looks for brands like Big Bold Health and Nordic Naturals. If you want to take magnesium with those supplements prior to bed it may help get into a faster REM sleep. The research is being conducted for sleep aid.
