Episode Overview

  • Omega-3s are essential fatty acids that our bodies cannot produce.
  • Modern diets often lead to an unhealthy imbalance of Omega-3s and Omega-6s.
  • Omega-3s support cognitive function, hormonal balance, and immunity.
  • High-potency fish oil supplements can ensure maximum absorption.
  • Omega-3s are crucial during pregnancy for both fetal development and maternal health.
