Are you taking your omega-3 oils? If you are consuming omega 3 oils primarily from flax, chia and other seeds your body will have to convert them down to longer chain omega three oils, eventually DHA and EPA. Each of the omega three oils in between have a function in our bodies but of course the oils that have been studied to have the most benefits to our cardiovascular and nervous systems are the EPA and DHA. The problem is our conversion from ALA (from flax, for example) down to EPA/DHA can be unreliable, ranging from 2-30 percent. What to do? Add coconut, Lauric and Myristic acids to be exact. Watch the video to discover what helps and what hinders our omega 3 conversion and how to biohack this yourself!
p.s. I know I say Mysteric in the video! It’s a Mysterious fatty acid 🙂 Anyway I mean Myristic.
