7 Best Sources of DHA/EPA: Essential Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- The essential Omega-3 fatty acids EPA & DHA are vital for optimal function of the human brain and body. You may be able to limp through life with low intake, but you will only thrive and optimize with high intake of EPA & DHA. There are foods that are rich in these Omega-3s, and many which contain none at all.
EPA & DHA are essential Omega-3 fatty acids, meaning that our body can not make them, we must each foods rich in them. Supplements have been shown more than once to not really help at all. Plant foods rich in ALA are very poorly converted to EPA & DHA, and thus don't help much either. This video lists the 7 best food sources of DHA/EPA, foods which have lots of bio-available & bio-absorb-able DHA & EPA. Your brain and nerves will thank you for eating plenty of these foods in your diet.

The essential Omega-3 fatty acids I talk about in this video are. EPA = eicosapentaenoic acid, and DHA = Docosahexaenoic Acid.
The other fatty acid I talk about is ALA = alpha-linolenic acid.
4:50 can you not make dha from ala?
No way am I eating any of that! There has to be a way to supplement.
@@whitlockbr what is ala?
@@groovy-momma418 it is the omega 3 fatty acid that comes from plants. It does convert to epa/dha but only at a %6/%4 rate. I got to the portion of the video that stated this.
What about mercury content of these foods? Eating them in quantities sufficient to get 3k mg. Fish roe and cod oil are exceptions of course... answer at 11:39
Dr Berry forgot to mention that DHA is concentrated most in the human body in the eye, brain, and heart.
He also eluded to fish oil capsules not being as effective as we once thought they were. That’s because during the manufacturing process, the majority of DHA and EPA are molecularly changed to what’s referred to as the SN1 or SN3 position, which the body has a harder time absorbing and utilizing. It needs the DHA to be in the SN2 position. Eating seafood allows us to absorb DHA/EPA in the SN2 position. Can’t get SN2 omega 3s from plants either as they are inherently in the SN1 & SN3 positions. This is important because that DHA being in the SN2 position affords efficient operation of neurological function, especially when transmitting light information to the SCN in the hypothalamus (master clock of the body that signals the body for release of hormones as part of the circadian rhythm). If the SCN is off, chronic illness/disease tends to follow

holy shit he just rambles on and on..get to the point
Thank you for the summary!
I sit down with my tin of sardines and low an behold Dr. B has a new video. After being on methotrexate for years for my RA, adding a tin of sardines a day began reducing my inflammation. A move to carnivore dropped my inflammation so quickly that I was off my methotrexate in 2 weeks. It's been over a year with no medication and no symptoms or flares.
Also get sunlight everyday. Good day to you
try getting off syntehtic b vitamins and get on methl folate, your inflammation will disapear by and large over night.
@@leviathanrising9763 I have no inflammation, I have no symptoms, my blood work for the last 2 years had been perfect. I have no issues.
So awesome!!! Well done 🌝
@@leviathanrising9763 How do I know the difference, please let me know!? I don't want to take the wrong vitamins! Thank you very much 🌝
Thank you! Today I made sardine hash... Just mash up a can of sardines without the water or liquid.. one egg, and some pork panko. Fry slowly in some beef tallow til crispy and it resembles ground beef. Top with butter or hot sauce.
SARDINES: Season Brand Sardines in 100% olive oil at Costco, 6-pack is $9.99, = $1.67 per can, with 1700 mg Omega 3s AND very tasty!
I ♡ Season Brand Sardines and Mackerel but King Oscar uses E.V.O. which is less processed and healthier
@@Paul-hl5ls Interesting. I am curious to know how you find out if the EVOO is less processed?
get them in water, oils oxidize too easily.
@@terraflow__bryanburdo4547 Even the olive oil?
@@porridge57 Most olive oil is at least 15% oxidized and often adulterated with other oils. It's up to your preference but water is the best bet for me. Of course soybean or other oil I avoid 100%
God bless you Dr Berry for all the selfless service you do to people by sharing genuine health information. You deserve a long healthy happy life 🙏
You can make ( BAGNA CALDA ) it consists of olive oil or butter with minced garlic and anchovies. Just warm it up in a crockpot. You could even throw some shrimp in it. But you can scoop it out with cabbage leaves or things like that. It’s very flavorful and rich my dad used to pour them into a pie plate put it in the refrigerator and let it cool and thick it up and then when he wanted some. He just slice a piece of the pie and heated in the microwave. I find it delicious.
I just ate sardines for the first time ever. I bought the can a while back but I've been too skeptical to try them. You convinced me to try them today. They are actually good!
I have that same problem!! The sardines have been sitting in the pantry for 4 months now😂
@@kevinp8899 Yep, just sitting there in my cabinet too.
Toast some bread, pour some olive oil on it, add some lemon juice and eat the sardines. If you have some kalamata olives add them to the feast and enjoy. YOU WILL GET USED TO THEM❤️
I have a can in the cupboard but terrified to open it...I hate fish but know I need to eat this stuff. Maybe I need a few beers first
They are delicious
I am plant based in my diet and your approach is logical, compassionate and non judgemental. I am buying the roe to add to my diet. Currently i intake flax seed oil daily. Thank you for the emphasis on this very important topic.
I understand flax seeds are ALA, not EPA and DHA. As he said ALA is poorly converted into EPA and DHA. Consider Cod liver oil, but avoid allowing it to go rancid.
What brand? Is it working for you?
Is even the cheapest fish roe Ok? I found some on Amazon.
I once cracked open a tin of smoked herring in my office, I heard complaints about the smell for weeks lol. Be careful out there!
Yes, I've learned that you have to excuse yourself and go outside to eat lunch. Also for hard-boiled eggs.
@@elizabethblane201
I'm just now seeing these comments- & you are so right, my Mom eats creamed herring & hard boiled eggs!! Oh WOW is that stinky 😄🐟
The same happened to me in the staff tea room. I opened a tin of sardines and everyone was disgusted🤮
Yeah, eat them at home. 😂
Haha that’s really funny 😄
Thank you so much Ken, very helpful as always! Love how you said: Honour the animal by not waisting anything
Large amounts (4-6,000MG) of natural omega 3 sources (eggs, flax/chia/hemp seeds, fish, walnuts etc.) cured my anxiety and depression. Completely gone in about 3 weeks. 🥳 It truly is brain food. 🧠 I sleep better and my racing mind is gone.
WOW, I can't believe what you're saying!! I would do anything to calm my mind, my heart. Or even being able to sleep at night, I have to read your comment again! Thank you for sharing this information. 😄My anxiety is so bad, I stay home for weeks at a time.
@@skylarbix7912 ~ try taking a magnesium supplement before going to bed at night this will help with sleep and take Omega 3 fish oil supplement everyday , make sure there is no bad oil like soy etc in them and you should feel better 🥰
@@skylarbix7912 therapy helps too.
Thank you for your comment. I have been suffering with anxiety and depression for nine months.
@@pamalatrynovich4817 Potassium supplements will help, too. Love from Scotland (Coviet Union) 💚💚💚💚
Thank u Dr. Berry 4 this info. My YUCK Meter kept rising tho: FISH! Why can't coffee have all that stuff! Thanks 4 no background music. Note: I am a greatgrand mum in yr 83.
Stay with your coffee! It is doing something great!!!! I am 73 and love it.
LOL.."YUCK Meter" 🤣😂
I wish my grandma would go keto or carnivore. She has Polymyalgia rheumatica. I think carnivore would help greatly
I completely understand...my "YUCK Meter" just came up too. I Love coffee too. I can at least handle salmon. Need a little sauce on it though..... Teriyaki is good.
@Margaret Gust Thank you very much!
I'm 74, healthy, no prescription medications, and want to do whatever is healthy to TRY to stay that way. I'm actually fixing salmon tonight. Salt, pepper, and lemon is sure healthier than sauces from a bottle. I'm starting once a week, and hopefully going to twice a week like you. Thanks!
May God bless you brother you’re my lifesaver too I will adopt you as my doctor too so happy that you told me there cause I had a stroke recently and I absolutely love fish love sardines love Smoked sardines love salmon any kind of fish just about thank you so much for sharing now I’m eating more of it🥰🙏💕🦋
I eat sardines everyday. At $1 per can how can you not stock up on those little beauties. Thanks again for all the solid information.
We pay over $3 in Australia 🇦🇺
Sardines are available in olive oil. Put can of sardines in a bowl. Squeeze in a lemon or lime. Add half a finely chopped onion. Mash it with a fork. (Optionally add some Kaitaia Fire - a flavoursome chiili sauce). Delish.
I was starting to eat a couple cans of sardines a week in mustard sauce but I just got some cod liver delivered today that I was going to mix with my burger meat. I took a sample taste b4 mixing and it was so smooth I finished the whole can and made my burger without it. Cod liver is amazing. I will keep this in my diet for a very long time.
Which brand of cod liver did you purchase?
@@thrshwll1526 Ican wild caught Icelandic cod liver in its own oil
@@ericwuerl3976 Thank you
Thanks for the reminder. Battling PsA here and I NEED to eat more fish!!!!
I don't like anchovies at all and I thought that I want to like sardines. Well, I tried sardines for the first time last week and if I had a can every day since. stuff is amazing!
I always make Ceasar salad dressing from scratch with anchovies. SO yummy!
Yay , a new video ! I was starting to feel deprived ! Love you , Doc !
Ursula Eissner me too and I just found him a few days ago. I’ve listened to almost all of his videos. God bless you Dr Ken Berry !
Usually sardinies and anchovies in can are with olive oil, not the best olive oil, but I put in my extra bio olive oil. As regards caviar in Italy are not really caviar but lumpfish eggs, coloured red or black, that's why I never buy it.
As regard oyster it is sold single not by kg, so it cost too much and it is difficult to find it.
I eat smoked wild salmon, 4 eggs a day, beef, pork and chicken meat and vegetables you indicated.
Thanks a lot, I hope my healthy will improve.
Totally agree. Cod livers are very mild and tasty, especially when mixed with scrambled eggs or in a salad.
Thank you, Dr. Ken berry you are my go too you tube Doctor from now on. I trust everything your saying feels 100% right I will watch every single video you've made and will follow your advice buy any probably all your products and books if you have them. Very good vibes from this man. Very excited this a very good day watching from Michigan .
"Wild Planet" brand Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I get the one with lemon. With bones. Small tin.
Sounds delicious. There is a lot of olive oil or there that is mixed with vegetable oil. I stopped getting my sardines in oil because of how widespread the problem is. I do miss it though and it may have actually been olive oil so it's annoying.
wild planet for the win, sardines in water ...fantastic!
Sardines skin on and bones in best source of bioavailable dha epa
Love this guy! Every time I listen, I learn something new or- even better- something I "knew: that is wrong.
I eat almost everything on this list-that I can afford-but I eat sardines in olive oil(admittedly, not the highest quality)because I read oil preserves the nutrients in the fish better than water. Besides, I pour off most of the oil when I open the can.
The Season brand sardines sold at Costco are pretty good too although they have the head and a lot of bones removed. Really good on avocado toast using coconut or almond mug bread toast.
Love fish, no problem. Thank you muchly for sharing this very important information with us all, & take care of yourself too. ❤🙂🐶
Canned sardines or mackerel (in olive oil), mixed with a spoon of Muffaletta olive salad. Sooo tasty
ONE MILLION !!!!!
GO DOCTOR !!!!!
Keep up the good work.
I tried mackerel last year. It's not bad. It has a mild flavor you can pair with any sauce or seasoning.
Make it like tuna fish salad. More mustard.
Dr. Berry looking swoll 💪🏋️
Great video...badly needed since most people don't eat nearly enough EPA or DHA. I wish you had given a chart of EPA/DHA per serving for each of the 8 suggestions.
I just ended my 3 day sardine fast about a week after my 3 day water fast. It's amazing ! I don't dare eat seed oils so I put my 2 tablespoons of homemade avicodo mayo, 3 tablespoons MCT oil, 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 3 tablespoons fermented sauerkraut mix it with 3 tins of sardines just like I make my tuna salad minus the eggs, and its actually very good, so only the sardines condiments and water, that amount kept me satisfied with 3 meals a day, and I was never hungry, all cravings went away, this is the first time for me ever eating sardines , and I'm keeping them in my diet daily, I wouldn't think twice about doing this again.
Thank you Dr. Berry, you really care about humans and your book is great!!!!!!
Great video! Side note... make sure to choose Atlantic or Atka Mackerel VS king or spanish as they tend to be high in heavy metals.
Thank you!
I was vegan for 3 years and during those 3 years I developed annoying heart palpitations and tachycardias, I think I even suffered a mini heart attack one night! Anyways 1 year ago today I started zero carb/carnivore/keto... And my heart palpitations and problems disappeared within the first month! This to me is the ultimate testament to humans needing to eat meat. Also not to mention all the brain fog from all the legumes/grains and lack of proper dha/epa! Wow I was even anemic I think too because my hair would fall out when ever I rubbed my head.. it would fall out tons. Anyways glad to be losing weight on high fat moderate protein carnivore diet now. Also doesn't beef liver have decent amounts of dha/epa?
Hi Luis, love your comment, thanks for sharing!
I don't think liver is that high in omega 3, it's probably very similar to muscle meat. Brains, however, are sometimes even higher in omega 3 than fish.
where do you think all those animals got that 'proper' dha and epa omega 3s?? And what role does omega 6 from animal protein have in our ability to process omega 3s?
I love your story and your open-mindedness, my experience is somewhat close to yours, thanks for sharing
Good going man! The human body is quite complex and I think it’s important to be critical towards what you eat and most importantly, find what works for you. Great going!
The problem is not with the vegan diet but the vegetable Oils you are using that is rich in omega 6. For me eating once or twice a week of fish and the rest is plant-based. Do not use refined Vegetable oil.... what you were lacking is omega 3.
I have fibromyalgia, torn rotator cuff, and osteoarthritis.... next shopping trip my list will be allot different.
I'm so sick of worrying about it, I just ordered a 16oz. bottle of cod liver oil🐟 (unflavored!)Thanks Doc. !
I just can't do the skin and bones with fish so today I was happy to find sardines in olive oil that don't have skin and bones so first time I had sardines today when I got home. I also do the cod livers since no skin and bones to deal with.
Try mixing with ground beef ✌
He said they need to be in water and not to do them in oil.
@@theresamiller1446 He was talking about the ones packed in vegetable oil like soy or canola. Olive oil is an oil from a fruit and won't spike your insulin levels. Another problem with vegetable oils is that most soy, canola, etc. is genetically modified to be immune to applications of RoundUp, so you're probably getting traces of glyphosate in them.
Carlson’ s lemon Cod Liver oil tastes great! I take it daily.
@Warrior Lol! Me, too! Just ordered more😁
Thank you for this video! I am just starting to figure out how to get enough omegas in my diet everyday and this video gave me so many ideas. Very helpful.
I love cod livers they remind me of Foie Gras. In the Costa Del Sol, Espana most bars serve tapas and my favourite is/was fresh anchovies we would just pick them up with our fingers and dip them in flavoured oil or marinated similar to seviche, delish!
I get scolded at work for stinking up the break room with my can of smoked herring 🤣
I like to mix a can of sardines or cod livers into tuna fish with a soy/canola free mayonnaise to make tuna salad. You can’t even taste a difference! Add a little dill relish and some onion if you like! Delicious
very good information that your putting out!!!
I was hoping you guys can fit in your schedule to do a video on baby food baby snacks and baby formula on the ingredients and what is good and not good and what would also be cool to see and know is how you guys did everything with Your babe on the nutrition and when you started implementing things.
my wife is expecting our second child and I want to do a better eating habit since I’ve been following you guys. But I definitely want to be more educated on the baby products formula, food snacks and even shampoos. My wife is due in May and I would really like to know before hand so I can start with good habits. This would be very much appreciated. keep on keeping on, you’re doing great 👍
This is such a great video.Thank you. A question: you mentioned too much vitamin A is not harmful in fish. What about the huge Vitamin A units in organ meats? Lamb liver, for example? Off the charts...
Just noticed our local "Aldi" tonight has tinned anchovies in extra virgin olive oil so bought 2 tins to test out.... Live in the Highlands of Scotland and very limited shops locally- very little chance of finding anything that fits the pasture raised/grass fed/wild caught labels and just have to buy the best I can.... I have a half acre garden I think it's time to get some ducks and chickens!!
Type in grass fed and/or pasture raised meat in the search bar of your computer. You can order it online.
@@byteangelxi9178 Thanks for that- one avenue I'd not considered was online as I generally like to see what I buy food-wise, there's a supplier over in Aberdeenshire (Donald Russell)- will have a good look at the website this weekend, brief glance before work and they do cuts for slow cooking which could be an option to keep costs down (organ meats? ? ). Got a couple of local places which may fit the bill- one a fishmonger, one a "farm/estate shop".... going to have a look at both tomorrow!
You don't want to over cook organ meat. Well liver at least. I've never had anything in the organ meats except that and I can tell you from experience it's horrible if over cooked.
Just had some Mediterranean style King Oscar sardines with mustard, Siracha sauce, and horseradish, along with some olives. Love it!
Yumm!
Thank heavens I absolutely love fish equally as much as chocolate, although eat chocolate very little unless dark. I’m going to up my fish eating to more than the recommended 3 times a week. So much info that is kept from us or keep us ticking over on meds and for those that fall short of benefitting fall down. Thank heavens for these angel doctors that inform us we need much much more in order to do better than just ticking over in life on meds. Thank you. I love my mackerel although I do wonder about the toxicity from the tins!
Good article, still in last years have been consuming a lot of fish oil supplements and helped me a lot to elevate from 1 to 1.4 my HDL and halve my TG levels. Sure that could be also thanks to keto I started approx at same time, but when stopped taking supplements HDL went down to some degree and TG up. MCT oils added to that effect on HDL I usually had it around 1.6. Tested few years, keeping diary, doing monthly lab exams, ... have no doubt about. So I would not say supplements does not work (if one can't eat high quality fish for any reason).
Still monitoring, but since I went carnivore it looks like my sensitivity to fish went down. Before I had histamine reactions after eating few times in a row fish, ... now for last month (and 2+ months on carnivore) I can eat fish daily (mainly wild salmon) and even 2 times per day. Monitoring mercury levels, so far very low. Still for now consuming also omega 3 supplements because I have stocked them. Later will see.
Thanks for sharing. Can you tell what kind of omega3 and dose per body mass unit? So mct works too. Wow I love dairy I read "keeping dairy" funny
@@szymonbaranowski8184 At that time I was using BIOTech USA for year or two, later have been trying various others. I have also found that I actually do not need (a lot of) them when eating a lot of fish, especially wild salmon. On carnivore eating for last few years I try to buy mostly grass fed beef that has also naturally omega 3.
I've shared information about healthy omega-3's with a family member with T2 diabetes and fibromyalgia but she says her GP advised against it because of hemorrhaging risk? I have never heard of that in conjunction with fish oils and omega 3 before. Is it a real thing? She has sky-high triglycerides and blood sugar from the ADA diet.
Dr Berry - Can you please do another update on the Coronavirus soon and maybe a list of items for keto, carnivore, low carb eaters and emergency preparedness items. My family are so very appreciative of the information and knowledge that you provide 😊
Thank you for all you do to promote good health!
Cod liver from a can is amazing! New favourite food.
I tried it a few months ago? It’s sooo good. Ordered more to keep on hand.. ☀️
I've been eating sardines for many years and recently have added Mackerel. I read that Atlantic mackerel is best. Other types of mackerel are larger fish which have more mercury.
Do you just eat them from can or have other ideas for the willing to try? Thanks in advance.
@@VeldaE12 - If eating straight from the tin can is too much of your liking, you can cook it if you like. I sautee my onions and garlic, add a few cut-up tomatoes. Once all sauteed, add 1/4 cup of water, when the water starts boiling, add the sardines. Once the sardines got warm, optionally you can add veggies like spinach. After the veggies cooked, turn off the heat and enjoy your sardines.
VeldaE12 Try in a salad with keto bbq dressing or keto Caesar dressing. Even a Cobb salad without bacon or chicken sub mackerel.
Thank you Sunflower, but I’m carnivore and I don’t do greens. They really tear me up these days.
Dear doctor ken Berry. I just want to thank you for saving my life. I was dying having an eating disorder for over 20 years. Than i had a tumor. Than i started deep diving and found you. I'm cured from my eating disorder and everything else. Its been four months and I'm off all meds. Thank you. Hope to meet ypu one-day
Awesome info! Thanks, Doc!
Don’t forget snails, I know either love them or hate them. They are high in Omega 3$ and so much can be done with them. I prefer the French/Spanish or Greek snails rather than Thailand etc. Great for keto.
I the King Oscar sardines in extra virgin olive oil. Good video. Question - you recommend 2000 mg per day - hard to do when fasting.
Your voice and the way you explain is the reason I subbed.
hey been watching your channel and Neisha's too. The info you have is so critical to MY health. wish I wish close enough to make a doctor appointment with you but I am grateful for this channel .....as a disabled vet semper fi sir....
WHEAT thank you for serving our country
I take 2 tsp of Norwegian cod liver oil a day....I finally tried sardines lol, they're not bad!! Also ordered some real cod liver from Iceland, sustainably fished....I will eventually try 😊
Seasons sardines are very good.
Please list out EPA and DHA from land animals only. Some ppl love land animals a lot compared to uncommon faraway and out of sight only in the sea coasts fish!!
You're one of the best
Thank you, good info, I love sardines in water I put them on pork rinds really good.
I tried cod liver today for the first time. It was good. I’ve had them for at least 6 months and was scared to try.
Please include recommended dosages (2 g to 3 g) in the notes, or at least give a time index to that info in the video. Thanks.
// Busy readers/listeners may not want the info that you need, but the info they need. :-) Cordially
Herring is on the top of the list for Omega 3. I can never find it and have never tried it.
Thanks for all your help Doc.
Trader Joe's have the best sardines in olive oil . I grew up in Ireland eating all this stuff .
Thanks Dr Berry
Read the label carefully they use olive pip oil.
Best value for the money I think is Season sardines in bulk at Costco. Pure olive oil and they are delicious.
In his video - it is said not to buy sardines in oil.............you should buy them in water
@@denfos He simplifies things. You shouldn't buy sardines in vegetable oils, olive oil is completely fine. If you don't know anything about oils just buy them in water
@@rherteux Yes Rene I buy those too but the Trader Joe's are my favorite taste .
Can you give alternatives for ocean animals ? kinda allergic to everything that comes out of the ocean.
Id amp up my Organic Olive Oil
Algae oil
Thank you again. This is something we have to fix. It doesnt help having them stocked, also have to eat them 😋😋🤪
I buy Brunswick Sardines it’s from Canada in olive oil been eat that since a child in the Trinidad
Great video! As a vegan it is hard to get the EPA/DHA that I need. You did a good job of telling why EPA/DHA is so important. Don’t like fish but looks like I have no choice if I want enough EPA/DHA in my diet. Recently found out there isn’t much of either supplement in whole milk.
All DHA and EPA originate from algae, that’s the reason that fish contain it, so it isn’t necessary to receive these acids from them. If you want to avoid fish, I’d recommend doing more research into algae supplements to reach your recommended doses
Thank you for the advice! I am taking 900 mg of vegan DHA now. From my research EPA is not as important for brain health so I am sticking with just DHA. Fish oil has a bad aftertaste so I will be happy with my algal oil which goes down easily!
@@volstar8 Did you ever try the algae oil? What brand?
Hallelujah I love oysters and horse radish 😋
Me too
Love this practical info. Thanks!
What’s your thought on marine phytoplankton?
Yay I had wild caught salmon for dinner tonight. I ordered cold liver on Amazon im nervous of the taste but I'll try and hopefully won't be too strong. I've been eating chicken liver pate and I've noticed my energy is way higher after eating. Love seeing how these nutritious foods effect me.
You said sardines packed in water. How about packed in Olive oil or adding Olive oil to sardines in water? Thanks for all you share! I lost 23lb since November 1, no joint pain and had major knee rebuild 27th last month, blood was minimally affected. Thanks for adding to my life! I'm 64.
Olive oil is fine! Just avoid canola, soybean & sunflower type oils.
Look for the Wild Planet brand sardines and mackerel in olive oil excellent quality
@@KenDBerryMD I would caution anyone who buys their sardines packed in olive oil. I put such a can in the refrigerator for 5-6 days. When I opened the can the oil remained quite fluid (without any signs of rigidity), which was an indication the olive oil was laced with a cheap Omega 6 oil! I regularly buy my EVOO imported from Greece from Trader Joe's made exclusively from kalamata olives, which is an excellent oil. When I found another EVOO imported from Greece from kalamata olives from another store sold at a cheaper price, I bought it, but I found the oil to taste differently. Since I still had both bottles, I placed them both in the refrigerator for several days. The true EVOO from Trader Joe's would not pour out of the bottle, but the fake EVOO flowed freely from the bottle! Buyer Beware!
My main concern is cezium 134 radiation from Fukishima polluting at a rate of 300 mega tons every day for 10 yrs now but you set me at ease cause i do know the currents go south and not north so thank you for easing my concerns
Well, i usally take COD liver oil, especially now in the winter since i'll get some Vitamin D and the omega 3's in EPA and DHA form to help balance the omega ratios a little bit.
by working in the sea food industry eating fish roe on eggs everyday! very yummy! herring roe is very cheap and as good as sturgeon caviar.
you don't need to waste your money on sturgeon caviar.
I agree!
Thank you for that. Sturgeon and beluga and all that is out of my price range.
What would you suggest if you are allergic to fish?
Luv fish...plus alot of these small fish contain selenium which help to detox mercury...oysters are a great example
Thank you for this information. I loved sardines as a kid. Going to buy them again.
My favorite DHA Masterpiece is pork brains with duck eggs.
I see why maybe you don't mention brains but it's my understanding they have a lot of DHA more so than a lot of these other sources you listed
I've been semi-carnivore (I eat meat with berries, herbs and spices from seeds like cumin) for a while coming from keto. I love red meat, sometimes white meat, eggs, small ocean fish like mackerel, sardines, herring, and sprats (their heads are my favorite part) on a regular basis. Mussels, salmon and cod liver perhaps twice a month. I'm in Europe and it was said that cod liver caught in the North Atlantic is somewhat safe but shouldn't be consumed too often. Cod liver from the Baltic Sea is contaminated with heavy metals and Germany has prohibited its sale and distribution. I'm not a big fan of cod liver and my partner isn't a big fan of sardines with their bones and skin and sprats with their heads, so I make fish pate of sardines, sprats and cod liver. If anyone finds these fish disgusting for their looks, this is a great way to overcome the repulsion and make them yummy. And trust me, they ARE yummy! They are just not very pretty. 🤪
How do you make the pate?
oysters are wonderful fried..... could try to adopt a healthier frying habit for them. Yummy.
Careful with cod liver. You can definitely overdo it. It's so rich in vitamin A it is easy to eat toxic amounts. I managed to do it. Ended up with a red rash around my eyes and and face. Took me a long time to figure out what was happening. You can get nauseous from eating too much cod liver. A teaspoon a day is the max I found to be safe.
Dr. Berry what are your thoughts on sardines when their packed with extra-virgin olive oil?
I was raised in the 60's my mother use to give my brother's and I cod liver oil ever day we never got sick...we are still pretty healthy...
Same!!!!!
Thank you for the lists
Is the gel capsules not worth it? Surely they won’t do any harm taking them as well as eating fish?
Yay for anchovies and cod liver oil!!😁🌹
Dr. Berry, I’m allergic to seafood. Any other foods I can eat to raise EPA/DHA if supplements aren’t recommended?
All seafood or shellfish?
I ate two cans of mackerel (in water) yesterday. I already knew mackerel is one of those fish very high in essential fats, so I eat it quite often; but often many days pass before I eat it again and that's because I don't exactly love to eat mackerel, or sardines for that matter. A wild-caught salmon not out of a can is a favorite of mine, though, but usually I can't afford it. Salmon out a can or frozen is not that tasty. Anchovies are often brined heavily. Anyway, I'll try to eat one can of fatty fish for a few weeks and see if that's working out, instead of maybe twice a week. Herring is also all right with me. I'm Dutch, so I eat those the Dutch way. Thank you for quality information.
Hi Dr Berry and thank you!😊
