Episode notes
Fish Oil Purity Essentials
- Fish oil purity depends on three key aspects: active EPA/DHA ingredients, absence of heavy metals, and oxidation level.
- Oxidation is often overlooked but crucial for fish oil freshness and efficacy.
Protein Intake Gaps Explained
- Many Western diets are carb-heavy and protein intake is often below optimal for muscle mass and longevity.
- Achieving protein goals solely through whole foods can be challenging due to the volume of food required.
Family Protein Hacks
- Oliver's family adds protein powder to oats and bakes protein buns to boost daily protein intake.
- This helps balance usually carb-heavy meals with protein, improving nutrition conveniently.
