Dr. Venn Watson emphasizes the importance of maintaining adequate C15 levels, which are often found in full-fat dairy and certain fish. The episode also touches on the potential downsides of fish oil supplements and the significance of gratitude in health and longevity. You'll Learn: Importance of saturated fat C15 (penta acid) in cellular health Role of C15 in preventing nutritional deficiencies and cellular fragility Impact of modern dietary trends on fat consumption and metabolism Benefits of full-fat dairy as a source of C15 Research findings linking C15 deficiencies to metabolic diseases, particularly fatty liver disease Dietary sources of C15 and their significance for health Discussion on the development of a C15 supplement for optimizing levels Concerns regarding the consumption of fish oil supplements and their stability Emphasis on whole food sources of omega-3s over concentrated supplements The role of gratitude in health and personal reflections on research and public health 💊 Purchase Fatty15 here: https://fatty15.com/FREEDOM and use the code FREEDOM for 15% off your first order.  🩸 Purchase the Genova Fatty Acid C15 test here: https://connect.gdx.net/shop?utm_source=affiliates&sharedid=&irpid=2524175&irgwc=1  📚 🎁 Purchase Ben's new book Metabolic Freedom today to receive immediate access to a FREE course on metabolism with exclusive interviews from Gary Brecka, Dr Daniel Pompa, Dr Jason Fung, Megan Ramos, Cynthia Thurlow & more.

If you have extra fat around your belly that you just cannot seem to get rid of, I’ll be sharing with you a 7 simple step protocol that will allow you to lose stubborn fat within 14 days. Each step is linked to the next step, so be sure to follow this protocol the way it is laid out.. No, you don’t have to suffer. No, you don’t have to even count calories. No, you don’t have to rely on willpower.  In fact, this will be easy.  Let’s start with the first step… Step #1: The 3 exchange diet…  A simple 3 dietary exchange…. Exchange 1: Remove The Following Insulin Spiking & High Plant Toxin Foods Wheat All grains Brown rice Millet White Rice Oats (Includes oatmeal) Barley Corn Soy Pasteurized Cow Dairy Spinach Kale Tomato Almonds & Almond flour Eggplants  Peanuts & Peanut butter Replace With Following Insulin Friend & Low Plant Toxin Foods Cauliflower rice Squash rice Cabbage rice Sheep & goat dairy Coconut milk (unsweetened) Macadamia nut milk (unsweetened) Walnuts Pecans Pili Nuts Macadamia nuts  Arugula Asparagus  Exchange 2, replace inflammatory fats with healthy fats Remove The Following Bad Fats… Canola Oil (Rapeseed oil in the UK) Corn Oil  Cottonseed Oil Safflower Oil Sunflower Oil Soybean Oil Rice Bran Oil Refined Peanut Oil Grapeseed Oil  Fish Oil  Replace With The Following Stable Fats (Saturated & Monounsaturated Fats)  The Best Fats For Cooking at High Temps Are The Following Animal Fats: Butter Ghee Beef Tallow Duck Fat Lard (non hydrogenated from pastured pigs) The Best Fats For Salad Dressings, Drips & Low Heat Cooking Are The Following Fruit Based Fats:  Coconut Oil Avocado Oil Extra Virgin Olive Oil The 3rd exchange is to replace sugar and artificial sweeteners with healthier choices. Remove the following Raw Sugar Processed Sugar Fruit Juice Evaporated Cane Juice Agave Nectar Sucralose (Splenda) Aspartame  Replace these with the following safe and healthy sugar alternatives… Stevia Monk Fruit Allulose Xylitol Erythritol  Raw Honey (limited) Step #2:  Practice this meal timing schedule to lower the fat storage hormone insulin.. You have hundreds of hormones inside your body. Hormones are chemical messengers. Some hormones activate fat burning, some hormones help with energy, some hormones help with longevity, but ONLY ONE HORMONE causes fat storage (and shuts off fat burning). 🎁 📚 Purchase Ben's new book Metabolic Freedom today to receive immediate access to a FREE course on metabolism with exclusive interviews from Gary Brecka, Dr Daniel Pompa, Dr Jason Fung, Megan Ramos, Cynthia Thurlow & more.

In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, we dive deep into the endocannabinoid system—the master regulator of health that most people (and even doctors) don’t fully understand. Dr. Michael Stewart and Chris Lindahl from Entourage join us to uncover how the endocannabinoid system influences inflammation, chronic disease, and overall health. We discuss: ✅ What the endocannabinoid system is and why it’s critical for health ✅ How inflammation, long Covid, and metabolic issues are all connected ✅ The difference between CBD isolate and full-spectrum hemp—and why it matters ✅ How to restore and optimize your endocannabinoid system naturally ✅ Clinical research on cannabis for inflammation, anxiety, brain fog, and pain ✅ How Dr. Stewart’s long Covid study showed 8 out of 9 symptom improvements ✅ Why most CBD products don’t work—and how to find quality hemp products ✅ The Entourage Effect—why using the whole plant is superior to CBD isolates ✅ How to properly use CBD & hemp for sleep, recovery, and nervous system health Resources Mentioned: 🔗 Entourage Products ⭐️ Purchase Endourage products at 50% off!

Entourage’s products are safe for dogs and can help with anxiety, inflammation, and mobility issues—but always use a direct oral application, not mixed in food. 🧪 Lab Testing & Purity Matter. Entourage tests for potency, pesticides, heavy metals, and microbes to ensure clean, safe, and effective products. 🚨 THC Warning: If you are drug tested at work, check with your employer before using Entourage products, as they contain full-spectrum cannabinoids, including trace amounts of THC.
