Why Omega-3 Fatty Acids are Important? | Dr. Daniel Amen & Jay Shetty 

EPA works for Cardio Health and DHA works for Brain Health.

There is something very comforting in the way Dr amen speaks…

Love love love Dr. Amen; and who doesn’t love Jay Shetty… what a beautiful soul

Love them both. I wish I could have someone like them in my life. Life savers 😢😭❤

Why do they so often skip mentioning algaes when talking about vegan omega3s? Thats where the fish gets his omega3, and they have both EPA and DHA

Dr Amen❤ I’m so grateful I found him

Most thorough explanation I’ve ever heard: “it works on different systems on the body” wow…. I feel so informed now.

Both men are legendary in their field of expertise

As a Behavioral nutritionist , I completely agree with this and am so grateful for your input 😊 Thank you 🙏🏻

Most people don't need to 'take' anything, just eat a balanced diet of healthful WHOLE FOODS (not "products")!

I am vegan for 20 years plus and I hear people saying this to me for years. You can’t get that from a vegan diet. Ok, well, I am still in better shape than you, no pains, no weight issues, no deficiencies… 🤔

Pumpkin ,seeds, omega3 fatty acids sunlight

Algal oil, which is derived from algae, is rich in both EPA and DHA. The EPA and DHA that is found in fish, originates from the algae the fish have eaten. Algal oil is now found in a plethora of supplements so that we can get our EPA and DHA from algae too, and not have to eat the fish.

Thank u Dr for sharing informative knowledge ❤

Thanks for sharing ❤️ 👍

I love sunlight it makes my brain tingle and I see rainbow halo's

Also Krill Oil. Very interesting alternative for omega 3 because it naturally contains high ammount of asthaxantine, a powerful antioxidante.

I would reference Andrew Huberman for an actual answer to this

Thanks a lot for sharing.

Please 🙏 tell us what to eat. We Love 💕 You.

Thank you very much for this information❤❤❤❤😊

Awesome ❤thank you both ❤

Great message

Thank you for your health tips

Brilliant defines Dr. Amen! Blessings

The way he didn't answer his question ans just went on , damn the talent

You can be vegetarian and get EPA an DHA from organic eggs. Eggs are the most complete food, even their cholesterol is of the good kind, just raise the chickens yourself to make sure.

Mil gracias por su Valioso Aporte

What is the name of the brand and type of omega three you are discussing?

Glad to know this information.

I started eating meat and eggs again around 6 years ago. I started feeling better about 2 years ago. I dont believe Humans are supposed to be vegan now.

Wow thanis dor this info

Such a good looking guy. Throwing it all away for the animols.

God told us what to eat.

I just started taking his omega 3s. Feeling better already!

You said it!, you were never supposed to be a vegan as you’ll lack nutrients that are essential. Everything in moderation is key. Mediterranean diet is best in my opinion.

Omega-3 from algeas have both EDA and DHA. Aren't algeas considered to be vegan? I used this supplement myself while on a plantbased diet.

Thank you Dr .I had my brain scanned .My Mother passed of Cruetzfelt Jacobs disease .I have her scan as well .She had at least 6 concussions over time .Is this a possibility?

I just love wild line-caught salmon....

If you are vegan always make sure you absorb nutrients from plants properly. There are vegans who take algae supplements and find out they don't absorb much of it. Same with beta carotene which doesn't always convert properly to vitamin A. Being able to be vegan long term depends on your body's ability to absorb and convert nutrients. I knew someone whose vitamin A stores were completely depleted in spite of eating a lot of beta carotene rich foods. (As an example) Also check your iron, not everyone absorbs it well from plants (even with vitamin C)

Didn’t answer the question of what’s the difference between EPA & DHA.

I just started eating pumpkin seeds yesterday! Who knew??😅😊

Worth mentioning that ALA is converted by the body into EPA and DHA but only in small amounts

How am.i vegan and 100% healthy ? I'm.a miracle

Moringa Moringa Moringa ❤ the miracle plant ❤ more plants to mention ! Indias biggest yogi RAMDEV doesn't eat meat egg but he is vegetarian .. Please have a look on his reccomendations for diet n exercise

You're not getting epa/dha properly from fish oil either or from eating fish.. unless it is raw but that brings in the parasite issue. Fish oil supplements and fish itself also contains mercury and a host of pollutants. Flax oil doesn't have any of those problems, and it's absorption and utilization in the body is better than people think.. hence why we have people reversing all sorts of diseases mega dosing flax.

I have 2 vegans sources of Omega-3 (Iwi and Smart for Life) with actually higher EPA than DHA from algae same place the fish get it from, I do have to say both are a bit pricey. The body does make in the sense that some ALA will convert.

Where can I find this? What is the name of it?

It doesn't make sense to me that we somehow have found out that we absolutely need EPA in our bodies to be healthy, but our body don't produce EPA.

What about this study BMJ Medicine about Omega-3? Is it correct?

Sorry for silly question, but what does he mean by sunlight, pumpkin drips dopamine

I couldn't see the label. I'm vegan 43 years.

You can get all your omega-3 fatty acids from cold pressed hemp seed oil. Eating the raw shelled hemp seeds is the second best way to get what the body and brain needs.

Love you Dr Amen 💓

My Algae Oil supplements do have EPA and DHA, one had ALA.

What is he taking and where can I buy it?

When you get ALA from food, your body is able to turn some of the ALA into EPA and subsequently to DHA. However, this process provides just a small amount of EPA and DHA. Its does make them. Wrong diets create barriers of EPA that turns to DHA. If you dont eat the correct balance and rely of carbs as a high intake, then the system won't create the levels because you are not replacing what's lost over time..

So now what? Where do we get these?

I have a swallowing disorder and I need to crush any form of pills...what do I do for Omega-3 supplements?

You can actually get algae sourced vegan oils that have enough epa dha. ❤

What do you mean exactly by"drips" dopamine?? Do you mean it Drops your dopamine levels or It has lots of Dopamine??

How does dopamine effect baldness ?

Thank you...

Thank you

What product was that

Where's the link?

Plant sources of omega are inferior to animal sources. Fish oil is the way to go. Fish oil comes in various forms and the epa/ dha various in amounts. Higher sources of either epa or dha depending on why you are taking it can have a huge difference on your health. A happy brain and fish oil go hand in hand. Much of the delinquency that young people experience in the US may very well be related to their lack of omegas. Having worked in the retail suppllement business for yrs, fish oil is a very big part of the business and can make life a more contented satisying healthier life. Plant sources are really a waste of time. Supplements do offer an advantage over eating fish as almost all mercury is removed whereas fish today is contaminated. That said I would still eat fish as food is still the better way to go. If you are suffering some malady supplements offer easy quick solution to remedy your health issue. You also have Krill which don't cause burps and lower CRP an indicator for heart disease . Fish oil does not lower CRP.

Algae oil and chia seeds are the best for vegans/non-vegans!

Dr. Brook Goldner explains this on youtube! For the vegan!

How much Omega-3 & VitD3 are needed per day????

It’s a dire shame that still these days anything associated with the word “fat” brings about more negative connotations than good.

People don't understand that we're not meant to eat vegetables only... Over 90 percent of vegans go back to normal, healthy diet in a matter of 3 years seeing decline in their health after eating only vegetables

I don't know why he said it is hard to get in from flax oil, because it has 5000 mg per tablespoon

What is the name of the brand

❤ thank you

RU-vid shorts looping, drips dopamine

Can I take fish oil with saffron?

It’s ok to say “ I don’t know”

What does the bottle say?

I didnt' get it, then sunlight is not good, because it negatively affect dopamine?

🎉thank you 🎉

I just want my faucets in my home to drip gold

Ok, how can I get them?

What about flax seed

Sun drips dopamine? Why? How? Does that mean positive or negative effect?

Well i was a vegan for 3 years ive been back on meat for 6 months.....tired of hearing people tell me my health will deteriorate .... I feel tired.. Depressed....and my tummy has blown up

Ok, but does he want to sell those pills? And if so, how much does he get for it?

❤ this info

Is omega 3s from algal oil a foreign concept to him? Like it's well studied and very well supported by science....

I take omga 3 ,vitamin d3 n k2 with a muti vitamin. Wanted to ask if taking collagen really works or is it a waste of money?

I love Jay😊😊😊

Where do I find physicians and doctors like him in the Miami area ?! I suffer from gerd

What does drip mean?

Keep in mind this guy has a personal chef… $$$$

In countries that don't grow pumpkin seeds or avocado, what do they do

Always wonder how we survived all these millennia without our bodies making this stuff if they are so essential. So, essential?

What does Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have to do with the video,,,, l stopped watching it after the mention of the EPA okay

Where’s the link for this product😅

What does he mean by "drip" dopamine?
