Omega 3 DHA EPA facts:

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)

DHA, a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid, is the most abundant omega-3 in the brain and eye. It is also an essential structural component of heart tissue and naturally found in breastmilk.

Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA)

EPA, a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid, is essential for human health. While EPA is not stored in significant levels in the brain and eye, it plays a vital role in the body, especially for heart health.

The primary source for Omega 3 EPA and DHA are marine algae, diatoms and other photosynthetic organisms that comprise the phytoplankton. Microalgae and diatoms are consumed by fish, which then accumulate these oils.

We can farm these oils directly from algae, away from the contaminants found in the marine environment, therefore we no longer need fish for our Omega 3 DHA EPA!

Vegetable oils contain the most toxic compounds we consume, way more damaging than all the pesticide, herbicide residues and air pollution put together.

Vegetable oils, extracted from corn, canola, soy, sunflower, cottonseed, safflower, rice bran contains heat, light and oxygen-sensitive polyunsaturated fats.

When they have been industrially processed over 20 steps to extract, bleach, deodorize and refine the oils, the fragile health-giving fats contained within them turn into trans fats, with damaged structures which the body and brain can't deal with and are toxic to our cells.

When these oils are used for cooking they turn into mega-trans fats which damage the lining of the blood vessels, arteries, veins and capillaries and most of all the endothelial cells which direct blood to where it is needed most, this has been shown to directly increase the risk of stroke.

4-hydroxy-2-noneal is one of the most toxic trans fats found in vegetable oil and the more the oil is cooked or heated the higher the concentrations become. Scientist and researchers from around the globe are now revealing the damaging effects of consuming processed vegetable oils over a lifetime, including the off the charts risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease, early onset of dementia.

These unnatural trans fats were never designed to be part of the human diet by nature and as a result science now places these transfats and their negative effects as the main driver of modern disease.

"For the first time, a study published last week confirmed a link between air pollution and traffic proximity with a higher risk of dementia, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and MS at the population level.
Researchers from the University of British Columbia analyzed data for 678,000 adults in Metro Vancouver. They found that living less than 50 metres from a major road or less than 150 metres from a highway is associated with a higher risk of developing dementia, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and MS -- likely due to increased exposure to air pollution.
"The good news is that green spaces appear to have some protective effects in reducing the risk of developing one or more of these disorders says Weiran Yuchi, the study's lead author.
Another effective way to offset the damaging effects of air air pollution, especially for tube passengers and people sitting in traffic are our bio-armour capsules.

Dementia diagnosis has gone up more than 50% in Shropshire, just above the national average of 41%.
I feel we owe these people a duty of care, the information is here and the message to consume the nutrients your human genome requires is being blurred by the industries that supply us the foods that are dulling minds.
Science has moved on and our outdated broken down chemical view of food as calories protein, fat, and carbohydrates is missing the mark.

Whats has been overlooked is that food contains an exquisite molecular language of nature that interacts with our DNA (epigenetics) itself causing changes to us good or bad at a cellular level. Today's diet is loaded with brain toxic fats which replace the good fats and bingo DEMENTIA!

University of Chicago (which has a top-rated neurology dept) and the doctors there said when they gave nutrasweet to lab mice, it literally blew holes in their brains. They said they will tell a pregnant woman to drink any amount of alcohol before touching a sip of nutrasweet, it is that bad.”

Lies and misinformation about nutrition and health began 120 years ago with The Merck Manual, also known as The Merck Manual of Diagnosis and Therapy, is the oldest continuously published English language medical textbook and the best-selling medical textbook worldwide.

In 1899 for $1.00 you could have grabbed yourself what was at the time, the most comprehensive medical book ever published in a Western language - one that clearly acknowledges the many ways foods and plants heal serious disease.

Today, Merck & Co. has grown into a multinational corporation with annual revenue of $43 billion dollars and hires tens of thousands of employees throughout the world, Today all the natural healing properties of plants and nutrition have been eradicated from its pages and only drugs are recognised as having any impact on health.

Our current treatment guidelines in the UK are based on this biased instrument of misinformation and as a result, the health of our population is at the worst it has ever been.

Over our lifetimes 1 in 2 can expect a cancer diagnosis up from 1 in 16 in the 1950s
There is a stroke every 4 minutes
a dementia diagnosis every 3.5 minutes up 56% in a decade
a heart attack every 3 minutes
and now dementia has become the leading cause of death!

Clearly, the way these issues are being addressed today and the guidelines which GPs and healthcare practitioners have to adhere to are not just flawed but are dangerous to our health and happiness.

Today's new avalanche of dietary research completely undermines the whole approach of big pharma and their treatment guidelines of peddling of drugs to address what are actually dietary deficiencies.

Today we are faced with the same tactics the to***co industry used back in the 1950s ,a corporate and systematic deceit of the public using flawed science and media manipulation. Only today it is Big Pharma and their target is OMEGA 3 consumption.

Since the discovery of OMEGA 3 DHA in 1976 there has been a wealth of 50,000 plus studies which show without this nutrient in our diet we are exposed to modern disease, from cancers, heart disease and stroke through to dementia and Alzheimer's, this conveniently ignored and discredited at every opportunity causing confusion and misdirection, the currency of the old to***co industry being spent against our health and wellbeing today.

On the 4th November, another very questionable study was produced by Dr Lee Hooper (even her name is misleading!) from the University of East Anglia was published in the British Journal of Psychiatry. It claims to have found that omega-3 supplements offer no benefit with anxiety and depression? Wow, that really does fly in the face of the independent studies say!

No clinical research was undertaken at all to produce these headline results. It was just a review (meta-analysis) of 31 clinical trials that were inconclusive out of the tens of thousands that do contradict her findings.

Again in July 2018, she published a study using the same questionable data analysis methods to say "there is little or no effect of omega 3 supplements on our risk of experiencing heart disease, stroke or death." again contrary to the results from thousands of independent studies.

The real science is being suppressed and their researchers gagged because when people know what simple natural things need to be included in their diet for a wealth of health, Big Pharma and their associates will be in for a severe pay cut.

The truth is out there and with today's modern diet the most important nutrient not to be deficient in for overall health in all areas is OMEGA 3 DHA.

The problem with any science right now is when the results aren't what a government wants the study is suppressed and hushed up. Blag counter studies are quickly done to cause confusion and misdirection, using the same tactics as BIG TO***CO used to pull. Food, Pollution and Disease have become the new battleground. This scientist published results that each and every one of us needs to know and was jailed, a complete disgrace !!

Scientists have clear ways of defining which foods are processed. A lot of it has to do with the ingredients that keep items shelf-stable.
