The Biohacking Blondes

Udo Erasmus — The Man Who Changed the World with Fat


Listen Later

In this soul-stirring episode of Biohacking Blondes, we sit down with Udo Erasmus, the original pioneer who dared to tell the world the truth about fats. Long before "omega-3s" became a buzzword, Udo was shouting into the void about the dangers of processed oils and the life-saving potential of essential fatty acids — not from corporate-funded labs, but from the trenches of lived experience and a relentless pursuit of truth.

Born amid the chaos of WWII and raised as a refugee, Udo’s early trauma planted the seed for a lifetime of inquiry. His story took a life-altering turn when he was poisoned while spraying pesticides. Instead of succumbing, he transformed — diving headfirst into the world of biochemistry, nutrition, and human nature. That personal crisis became the catalyst for a global health movement.

In this episode, Udo reveals how industrial processing of oils — through bleaching, deodorizing, and overheating — has silently damaged our health for decades. He was the first voice to challenge the status quo, warning that damaged fats are not just empty calories — they’re drivers of inflammation, disease, and even cancer.

His groundbreaking book, Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill, woke the world up to the truth. His follow-up, Your Body Needs an Oil Change, delivers the next evolution of this message. And his product, Udo’s Oil, remains the gold standard for clean, functional essential fatty acids.

But Udo’s mission extends far beyond food. He unpacks the influence of pharmaceutical companies on mainstream media, sharing behind-the-scenes stories of how truth is often silenced when it threatens profit. Despite this, Udo remains fiercely committed to education, empowerment, and awakening human nature — which he believes is our greatest untapped health asset.

Together, we explore:

  • The critical balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 — and why it matters more than calories

  • Why frying your food might be frying your health

  • How disconnection from self drives illness, and how reconnecting restores it

  • The role of Vitamin D in COVID-19 — and why no one’s talking about it

  • The power of peaceful presence as a revolutionary health tool

This episode is not just about oils — it’s about truth, integrity, and the biology of hope.
