Omega-3s
How Much Omega-3 Do You Actually Need Per Day?
The RDA, the optimal intake, and why most people are chronically deficient — with data from the world's largest omega-3 cohort studies.
Read →Every food has a story the internet gets wrong. We dig through the actual research so you don't have to. Deep, obsessive, honest guides to the foods that matter most.
Each book is a 30,000–50,000 word deep dive into one food — the science, the myths, how to use it, and why it actually matters.
The most nutrient-dense food in the ocean — and why almost nobody eats enough of them. Omega-3s, bone meal, the fishing sustainability story, and 30 ways to actually enjoy them.
Not all olive oil is created equal — and most of what you buy is fake. The polyphenol science, Mediterranean longevity data, fraud in the market, and how to choose right.
Wild vs farmed, the PCB question, astaxanthin, EPA/DHA bioavailability — everything you wanted to know but couldn't find in one place.
Curcumin, bioavailability, the piperine story, anti-inflammatory mechanisms — separating the hype from the evidence on the world's most studied spice.
Because the internet gives you headlines. We give you the actual research.
Every book in this series is built from primary sources — clinical studies, meta-analyses, epidemiological data — translated into language that doesn't require a PhD to understand.
No affiliate-driven recommendations. No cherry-picked studies. No "miracle food" claims. Just an honest, exhaustive look at what a food does (and doesn't do) for your body.
