Today I am so excited and honored to welcome Udo Erasmus to the show. I have been a fan of his for years (decades?!) since discovering Udo’s Oil, which first got me interested in living a healthier lifestyle. He has a wealth of knowledge and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation; I hope you tune in.
We mainly discuss the elephant in the room: seed oils!
Are they really *bad*?
Why are some seed oils better than others?
How do we achieve an ideal balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids? Why is it important?
Super fascinating stuff. Stay tuned for another interview with him where we discuss his 8-step process 🙂
Here’s a bit more about Udo and his background:
The legendary Udo Erasmus is the co-founder of the Udo’s Choice line, available in Whole Foods and other health food stores worldwide. Udo designed the machinery for making oils with health in mind and pioneered the flax oil industry, a billion-dollar industry. Yet Udo had a difficult path to becoming the man he is today. Born during the war, Udo’s life began with intense struggles. As an adult, he suffered a pesticide poisoning in 1980 leaving doctors puzzled for treatment. Udo decided to take his health into his own hands and started researching. His discoveries ignited in him the passion to find answers to life’s big questions that would hopefully bring peace to him and the world one day.
Today, Udo is a celebrated speaker and the author of numerous books, including the bestseller Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill, which has sold over 250,000 copies. He teaches at Tony Robbins and Deepak Chopra events, was a keynote speaker at a global brain health conference, and has traveled to over 30 countries, conducting thousands of live presentations, media interviews, and employee trainings that have impacted over 25,000,000 lives with his message about oils, health, peace, nature, and human nature. Udo has extensive education in biochemistry, genetics, biology, and nutrition, including a master’s degree in counseling psychology.
You can connect with him on his website and on Instagram.
