When might you cover omega-6 LINOLEIC acid PUFA? There is a lot going around about how eating too much of it is actually harmful, and communities like r/StopEatingSeedOils are dedicated towards reducing the consumption of products that have omega-6 LINOLEIC acid PUFA in them along with encouraging the posting of blogs and scientific papers that prove it’s negative affects.
I think we really need a explained list of which carbos are best, specially since they are critical for people with Diabetes, Insulin Resistance and people on weight loss training, also considering that some people avoid high carbo food altogether due to the fear of not being able to lose weight. And there's too, the people who are actually missing on enough carbos and need them.

Not gonna lie this is becoming my one stop shop reference for any of my friends and family who are looking to learn more about nutrition. It condenses complex and comprehensive information into concise presentations that remind me a lot of khan academy which carried me through any difficult subject.
@@Talon_Fitness Hey Talon, just wanted to say as someone who has studied most of your content in university a decade ago, it's great to watch your videos and re-learn those forgotten topics. Your presentation is simple, eloquent, and has just the necessary information for the everyman. My only recommendation is for you to put a link to your website, or somehow cram all the references into the video description (articles, websites, and page numbers/chapters for textbooks). You can even go back, and update your old videos to include references. Anyways, keep at it, mate! edit: typo!
The problem with a bread tier list is that here in the states the the bran, endosperm, and germ have all been altered to max yield; then many producers are making products for maximum upfront satisfaction, hoping to addict consumers for re-up buys. Then there's things like spraying crops down with glyphosate ridden chemicals as a desiccant if farmers are encountering wet weather before harvest. Ultimately, trying to break down the quality of bread by the type alone, sadly will not give you the full story.
Hey Talon, Could you create a website or something where all of your slides of information are posted? It would be awesome to have a place to easily find the features of different foods, compare them, printout the profiles, etc
The videos already have all the info. Making it more "conveniently" accessible would benefit very few people, in my opinion. You could screencap all the info by going through the videos and it wouldn't take you that much tbh
I have all you nutrition tier lists. I am thrilled with the dairy one. I am a hugh milk drinker and have been my entire life. I am now 74 and love my milk. Hear all the time from family, friends and even doctors how bad it is and how I should find another sourcec of calcium. I just smile. I wanted to tell you that I started taking a krill oil supplement about a month ago and even my sleeping is better. Keep sharing your facts and knowledge with us. There is still a lot for me to learn even at 74. Thank you
To everyone who might not know yet but is interested in supplementing, please keep in mind that fish and especially krill oil, destroy the food chain and thus ecosystem of the ocean, krill is the main source of food for whales in the Antarctic region and there isn’t enough left anymore due to commercial overfishing and krill harvesting there
@@littlezombie9621you should be more direct about it. This is a serious issue that is incredibly avoidable. Algae oil is right there, but people simply don't know about it or think that it's worse for whatever reason
For vegetarians it's worth noting that DHA can be found in seaweed crisps (purple laver / porphyra yezonesis sp.) Can also he found in Chlorella algae. Algae-based concentrated supplements also exist. If you don't want to go that route then you must consume a very large amount of flaxseed and walnuts.
I feel like it's not too bad with flax seeds. Correct me if I'm wrong but if you assume a 10% conversion rate and you assume the higher end of the daily recommended amount (500mg in EPA/DHA) then you would need 5000mg in ALA. As there's 23000mg of ALA per 100g in flaxseeds (230mg per gram): 5000/230=21.7g. so 21.7g of flaxseeds per day to reach the higher end of daily recommended amount. That's probably about what I add in my porridge in the morning - and that's assuming you're not also eating walnuts or Brussel sprouts. Did I make any mistakes with my calculations here? I got a bit worried that I was low on omega 3s, although I've never had any health problems
@@mereldejong1203 Same doubt, I am having around 3.5g of Omega-3 from veg sources , my omega 6 consumption is 14g acc to cronometer. Does the ratio apply to EPA and DHA or just the total omega 3? My EPA and DHA would be 3500*0.1 = 350mg, is this fine?
I'm allergic to seafood, have bad eyesight, have depression and anxiety and a lot of brain fog so I'm watching this video like 👁👄👁 ..time to search for algae oil. Thanks for the informative videos as always!
As a head up if the omega 3's are purified enough their is no protein component. True allergies are to proteins in nature. I work at a pharmacy and sell these oils so thought I'd share :)
Omega 6s caused me so much grief and depression and anxiety growing up wasn't until i started eating lard instead of vege oil that i realized what being a normal human felt like 20 years, just wasted being depressed and lethargic i don't eat as much lard nowadays but i take omega 3 tabs and only eat small amounts of coconut oil
I can’t praise you enough. Your videos are straight up excellent! I made it a habit to watch your videos with my whole flat, to counter common misconceptions about eating healthy. Thank you!!
This is one of if not the best channel we have that gives detailed information on nutriciology. I cannot express my gratitude enough, this is exactly what I've been looking for
I've just watched most of your videos as I want to get a better understanding of the things I'm eating, and your tier lists are just giving a really nice and simple overview of everything. I like that you give so much information on each ingredient, but it would be really cool if you could be a bit more transparent on where you get your information. I often hear you say, "many studies show...". It would be awesome to link some of those studies. Or if you gained your knowledge from previous studies (maybe you've studied nutritional science or have some sort of medical background) then you could do in intro video about yourself and what makes you a trustable source. I know that's a big take and I still think your videos are great, but I think this would make the quality of your channel even better. All that aside, a cool video suggestion would be talking about microplastics in everything that is fish or seafood related.
Hey Talon, I wanted to thank you so much for those videos, been training for years now and I would say I have a decent amount of knowledge about fitness and health in general but it is always so helpful to see such an good and compact format about such crucial information and I still learn new things from you.
I supplement 3, 6, and 9. Also a multivitamin. Was thinking to top it up with extra D3. I eat rather healthy (I hope): 1st meal: 750 ml smoothie (2 bananas, 1 mango, 3 kiwis), 2-4 slices of wholegrain bread with peanut butter, 0-50 g of Emmental cheese 2nd meal: 50-200 g of peanuts, 2 scoops of whey protein 3rd meal: 250 g of chicken, 50-100 g of wholewheat pasta, 1 bell pepper Feel free to criticize! The spread is because of cutting/maintaining/bulking at the gym.
I like the format of these videos more. Its one thing to provide a list of nutrients a specific food provides. But its more useful to explain what benefits they have on the body.
This is another excellent video that I will refer to from time to time. I noticed a couple of things from this video. The body needs up to 500 mg of omega 3 per day. 100 grams of salmon has 2600 mg, more than five days needed. This begs the question in my mind whether the body can store omega 3? If so, how does this work?
I can only recommend Cod Liver once a week. It doesn't taste very fishy and cotains like 13g of Omega 3. Though the structure is weird, i can recommend eating bread for the beginning to get used to it
Hey Talon, I don't know if another commenter mentioned it or not, but Maintenance Phase is a podcast that does rather rigorous research around health and they even have two episodes on the Nutrition Label, I think you might get a good kick out of it 😊 Cheers!
A small correction - omega 6's when they get converted to Eicosanoids, these aren't all pro-inflammatory, so the omega 3 to omega 6 ratio dosen't really matter as much. The reason it may matter is that i believe there is an enzyme that converts both the ALA, and some of the omega 6's into those ecosanoids so more omega 6's may reduce the ammount of omega 3's you can convert into EPA and DHA, but if you consume straight up EPA & DHA the problem basically goes away. However the ratio still matters in the sense that we're getting too many calories from those pairings of omega 3's and omega 6's with oil and like you said very little direct EPA & DHA wich means even if we get enough omega 3's if your body has tons of those enzymes, you may still consume too many calories, so really it's about balance since it's very hard to overconsume fish, walnuts brussel sprouts, etc.
since all processed foods have omega-6s due to their low cost, omega3-6 ratio is used as a (flawed) proxy for the amount of processed junk food in your diet. case of correlation isnt causation.
yeah that's what i found confusing lol there's so much ALA that it doesn't even matter if the conversion rate is low, yet he says it's not a good source of Omega 3
I'm really excited to delve into more nutrition-related topics! This video provided such valuable insights about Omega-3 fatty acids, and I can't wait to learn about other essential nutrients and their impact on our health. Looking forward to more informative content!
Hi Talon love your content I was wondering if you could make a video showcasing some of the meals you eat? With focus on what micronutrients are a part of the meal. Keep up the good work😃
Great video. Learnt most this info recently due to my own curiosity but glad theres someone like you putting it out there for others. Watching this while deciding on breakfast so fish it is!
You should do a pregnancy video. Like tier list for nutrients most beneficial for the developing fetus. There's plenty of info on it but being a newly pregnant person, I really enjoy your format and think it would be cool.
I'm gonna be honest I feel like there are SEVERAL more qualified people for that topic. You know like women. Who can actually get pregnant. I don't think I could physically pull that one off.
Cheers for another great video Talon - much appreciated! Beta-carotene might be an interesting one to cover, either way looking forward to the next one 🙏
Something interesting about ALA (which is the short chain omega 3) is it is shown to be beneficial for CNS diseases such as MS. More so than the other two long chain molecules which was a surprising finding when it flax seed oil proved better versus fish oil for people with MS
You didn't mention the fact that most omega-3 supplements are already oxidated at the time of purchase and taking rancid fish oil can do you more harm than good
Thank you for these videos Talon. Can we have a video on potassium since unlike other minerals it's kinda rediculous how much potassium you need. More knowledge on that mineral would be appreciated.
I agree that we need a video on potassium since it's difficult to find the right amounts without help. Also, we need info on how to moderate potassium when taking "potassium sparing" prescriptions.
@@bsteven885 Personally I don’t believe the recommended amount is accurate. I doubt we actually need 3500mg, probably 1000 or a bit higher or lower. Even for most foods that are high in potassium, you’d need about 2000 cal’s worth of those foods to get about 3500mg, with a few notable exceptions(kale and spinach). Even then you’d need about 8 or 9 cups of kale or spinach to get the DAILY recommended amount. I’m not an expert on human nutrition at all, but the recommended daily amount of potassium is so ridiculous that I doubt anyone outside of fanatic salad eaters is reaching it consistently.
This makes me curious: can you do a tier list on seaweeds and algaes? I see seaweed in the store, kelp, wakame, dulse, and also other water plants like spirulina. You hear that they’re great for you, and I believe it, but I don’t know what will give me what or really how to incorporate them. I got some kelp powder that I’ve been adding when I salt something because I use sea salt and I thought I could probably use more iodine and I heard seaweeds are a good source. Would be good to know how different seaweeds you might find in the store stack up and how much you might need to eat to be able to meet different dietary requirements.
No mention of rancidity and oxidation in a large percentage of fish oil supplements. Krill is a better option true but how many krill does it take to make one bottle?
I looove brussel sprouts and i eat chia seeds and flax seeds regularly, almost every day. I'm a vegetarian, and I actually had no idea there were different kinds of omega 3 and seeds/sprouts arent enough. I love seaweed/algae snacks abd salads, I'll make sure to include more or supplement.
Nice video but i dont think its good that you skipped the section where you should have brought up that fish oil which has been capsuled or in a bottle for months or years before its sold and consumed is very likely to be oxidiced and ranzid which actually makes it more harmfull than not taking it most of the time. There is a webside which tests all of the avaliable options for contamintions and freshness you can just look at to find the best option for you.
Thanks Talon - great info - helped me realize I'm actually doing Omegas right but it took a while to figure out. Have you talked about the mineral requirements in detail? The reason I ask is that I've been seeing a bunch of videos pop up about types of magnesium (there are types of minerals?), chromium and potassium being bad / good, etc. I'm also not positive of exactly what minerals are requirements verses suggestions. Basically it looks like I need an 'ium' introduction.
Please make a video on potassium since it's difficult to find the right amounts without help. Also, please give some info on how to moderate potassium when taking "potassium sparing" prescriptions.
When I started breastfeeding my first one lactation cookie recipe I read up on had ground flax seed as an ingredient so I looked into it and it’s a great source of omega 3 fatty acids. I add it to my over night oats, any baked good I make for my family (especially my now two year old) to get more nutrients in our system since it’s really good for your brain development/function.
wow this video perfect. i will send this to my dad and he is dealing with alot of inflammation and takes medications everyday and sadly drinks alcohol too often which also causes more inflammation. i will get him to eat more wild caught fatty fish. he has skin cancer and i really need him with me for as long as possible. thanks alot for the video. if anyone is dealing with the same situation please help me out with this and give me some advice.
Thanks to you, I grabbed my omega-3 supplement lollies as it's been sitting near my bed on the sideunit so sadly because I didn't have motivation for it. Now I feel sooo geat again.
Your video was very interesting, although I didn't manage to cross validate sucesfully the claims it brings up. I found some publications from NCCIH that are not supporting most of the benefits from omega-3s consumption that are depicted in this video.
I got an idea, you should make like food combo to take based on whaever illness or goal a person has, like “food for hypertension” , “food for diabetic” , “food to gain muscle” , “food for dandruff”
Hi Talon I have a humble request pls try to make a video about what vitamins interact with which ones and make a chart so we can use on daily basis can't thank enough
Great video. Did not know why they were called 3 & 6. Thanks for that. Have heard a lot of health "experts" say the 3:6 ratio should be 1:1. No way I can do that on a keto diet even eating a lot of seafood every day & supplementing with 1 to 2 1000 mg Omega-3 pills a day.
Hey Talon and viewers, Are Omega-3 capsules and pills ok alternatives to fish oil and algae oil? As a youngster, I don't know where from I can get the oils in Hungary, and the capsule supplements seem very straight-forward to increase my daily intake. Thanks for the video, very informative, I can't wait for the next one!

And black pepper (I believe) increases turmeric absorption.
Also buying fish oil is actually quite cheap. I got 500ml bottle for 15€. It's gonna last long time and considering the benefits, it's well worth it.
I absolutely love your channel, its really motivating me to start eating better
A deepdive into the health effects of salt and products to avoid would be nice
Love your channel, which I just found this week.
Omega 3 ordered!
Ok. Just binged your whole upload list. Cheers.
Cheers for another great video Talon - much appreciated!
Beta-carotene might be an interesting one to cover, either way looking forward to the next one 🙏
you absolutely have to do a nutrition tier list about mushrooms!
Something interesting about ALA (which is the short chain omega 3) is it is shown to be beneficial for CNS diseases such as MS. More so than the other two long chain molecules which was a surprising finding when it flax seed oil proved better versus fish oil for people with MS
please don't stop making these videos!
You didn't mention the fact that most omega-3 supplements are already oxidated at the time of purchase and taking rancid fish oil can do you more harm than good
Wow can’t believe I’m just finding your channel great content!
Excellent video! Very thorough.
Your content is so helpful and informative. I appreciate your work.. I would love to see both a zinc and potassium tier list!.
I learned so much! Thank you for great information! Could you please make a video on algae?
Can you do a food tier list on the best mushrooms/fungi to eat? Mushrooms are definitely overlooked for their nutritional benefits.
omega 3 is the only supplement that i started to notice the positive effects immediately
Thank you for these videos Talon. Can we have a video on potassium since unlike other minerals it's kinda rediculous how much potassium you need. More knowledge on that mineral would be appreciated.
Definitely with this one
I agree that we need a video on potassium since it's difficult to find the right amounts without help. Also, we need info on how to moderate potassium when taking "potassium sparing" prescriptions.
@@bsteven885 Personally I don’t believe the recommended amount is accurate. I doubt we actually need 3500mg, probably 1000 or a bit higher or lower.
Even for most foods that are high in potassium, you’d need about 2000 cal’s worth of those foods to get about 3500mg, with a few notable exceptions(kale and spinach). Even then you’d need about 8 or 9 cups of kale or spinach to get the DAILY recommended amount.
I’m not an expert on human nutrition at all, but the recommended daily amount of potassium is so ridiculous that I doubt anyone outside of fanatic salad eaters is reaching it consistently.
I always learn something new watching your videos, thanks!
This makes me curious: can you do a tier list on seaweeds and algaes?
I see seaweed in the store, kelp, wakame, dulse, and also other water plants like spirulina.
You hear that they’re great for you, and I believe it, but I don’t know what will give me what or really how to incorporate them.
I got some kelp powder that I’ve been adding when I salt something because I use sea salt and I thought I could probably use more iodine and I heard seaweeds are a good source.
Would be good to know how different seaweeds you might find in the store stack up and how much you might need to eat to be able to meet different dietary requirements.
Flaxseed gang stay winning stay grinding
These videos are super helpful and informative, I'd love to see more!
Absolute banger of a video you are doing gods work
This is Informationally dense. I subscribe to this.
The best video on this topic. Been taking krill oil for brain and eye health. Thanks
No mention of rancidity and oxidation in a large percentage of fish oil supplements. Krill is a better option true but how many krill does it take to make one bottle?
I looove brussel sprouts and i eat chia seeds and flax seeds regularly, almost every day. I'm a vegetarian, and I actually had no idea there were different kinds of omega 3 and seeds/sprouts arent enough. I love seaweed/algae snacks abd salads, I'll make sure to include more or supplement.
Taking Algae and Krill oil regularly seems to have helped with my eczema and allergies
Nice video but i dont think its good that you skipped the section where you should have brought up that fish oil which has been capsuled or in a bottle for months or years before its sold and consumed is very likely to be oxidiced and ranzid which actually makes it more harmfull than not taking it most of the time. There is a webside which tests all of the avaliable options for contamintions and freshness you can just look at to find the best option for you.
What's that website?
Please tell us that website
Please do a cereal tierlist list! A lot of people would be interested
theyre all gonna be f tier
@@chillxchillx8725ahahah
I would love to see both a zinc and potassium tier list!
Thanks Talon - great info - helped me realize I'm actually doing Omegas right but it took a while to figure out. Have you talked about the mineral requirements in detail? The reason I ask is that I've been seeing a bunch of videos pop up about types of magnesium (there are types of minerals?), chromium and potassium being bad / good, etc. I'm also not positive of exactly what minerals are requirements verses suggestions. Basically it looks like I need an 'ium' introduction.
I'd love to see a magnesium vid too!!!
Why wasn't the algae oil not on the list earlier in the video if it's one of the best sources of omega 3's?
Your content is so helpful and informative. I appreciate your work.
Thanks for your videos. I learn so much here that I otherwise would not know.
great work, thanks for this series!
Taking notes thank you
Please make a video on potassium since it's difficult to find the right amounts without help. Also, please give some info on how to moderate potassium when taking "potassium sparing" prescriptions.
Green - veggies.
When I started breastfeeding my first one lactation cookie recipe I read up on had ground flax seed as an ingredient so I looked into it and it’s a great source of omega 3 fatty acids. I add it to my over night oats, any baked good I make for my family (especially my now two year old) to get more nutrients in our system since it’s really good for your brain development/function.
wow this video perfect. i will send this to my dad and he is dealing with alot of inflammation and takes medications everyday and sadly drinks alcohol too often which also causes more inflammation. i will get him to eat more wild caught fatty fish. he has skin cancer and i really need him with me for as long as possible. thanks alot for the video. if anyone is dealing with the same situation please help me out with this and give me some advice.
I feel healthier just watching Talon Fitness videos! ❤
Thanks to you, I grabbed my omega-3 supplement lollies as it's been sitting near my bed on the sideunit so sadly because I didn't have motivation for it. Now I feel sooo geat again.
Your video was very interesting, although I didn't manage to cross validate sucesfully the claims it brings up. I found some publications from NCCIH that are not supporting most of the benefits from omega-3s consumption that are depicted in this video.
Great Videos! Ever think about making a meal series?
I got an idea, you should make like food combo to take based on whaever illness or goal a person has, like “food for hypertension” , “food for diabetic” , “food to gain muscle” , “food for dandruff”
I hate eating fish. Algae oil has DHA and EPA? Anything about conversion difficulties?
What recommendations do you have for algae oil?
You learn something new each day!
Hi Talon I have a humble request pls try to make a video about what vitamins interact with which ones and make a chart so we can use on daily basis can't thank enough
Great video. Did not know why they were called 3 & 6. Thanks for that. Have heard a lot of health "experts" say the 3:6 ratio should be 1:1. No way I can do that on a keto diet even eating a lot of seafood every day & supplementing with 1 to 2 1000 mg Omega-3 pills a day.
The healthwise optimal ratio would be 1:1. The official recommended ratio for everyone to pursue is 1:4, because it is realistic.
Hey Talon and viewers,
Are Omega-3 capsules and pills ok alternatives to fish oil and algae oil? As a youngster, I don't know where from I can get the oils in Hungary, and the capsule supplements seem very straight-forward to increase my daily intake. Thanks for the video, very informative, I can't wait for the next one!
HE'S BACK!
