In this episode, Pure founder Oliver Amdrup reveals the three critical factors that determine fish oil quality: potency (EPA/DHA concentration), purity (absence of heavy metals and toxins), and freshness (low oxidation levels). Learn the at-home test to spot rancid fish oil, what labels to look for, why 83% of protein powders contain dangerous heavy metals, and how European health standards compare to American ones. Oliver also shares insights on raising healthier kids, the transparency crisis in supplements, and why Denmark consistently ranks as one of the world's happiest countries.
