I’m joined by Udo Erasmus, founder of the award-winning supplement company Udo’s Choice, to learn more about the benefits of essential fatty acids. For over 40 years, Udo has been paving the way for sustainable oils that have health in mind. In our conversation, he shares his inspiring origin story and the journey that led him to transform the edible oil industry. 

After being poisoned by pesticides in 1980, Udo started looking into the quality of his food, water, and air intake. He gained a deeper understanding of the impact that oil has on mental and physical health, and even discovered that 99% of the population doesn't consume enough Omega 3. He and his team developed the first ever flaxseed oil and have since expanded the range to include optimal oil blends and other products like probiotics and greens. 

Udo shares simple, tangible ways to improve health outcomes through diet. Lifestyle changes can feel hard to implement, but Udo is living proof that it’s possible to feel younger while growing older when you prioritize what you put in your body. 

Listen in to hear our discussion about the power of essential fatty acids and how to start incorporating them into your diet.
