Vitality Radio Podcast with Jared St. Clair

Shownotes Transcript

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared is joined by Monique Wellise, Director of Education at Natural Factors. Together, they explore one of Jared’s Vital 5 supplements—Omega-3 fatty acids. You’ll learn why Omega-3s are so critical for cell membrane health, why our modern diets leave most of us deficient, and how the ratio of Omega-3 to Omega-6 can make or break your body’s inflammation balance. From dry eyes and joint discomfort to cardiovascular and cognitive health, they break down why Omega-3s are so foundational, and how to choose a clean, well-sourced product. They also cover vegan sources, algae oil, and flax, and why the form and dosage of your Omega-3 really matters. Whether you’re confused by Omega-3, 6, and 9, wondering if your fish oil is doing any good, or looking to cut through marketing hype, this conversation will give you clarity and confidence.
