Here at @Costco reviewing fish oil. Here’s what you should consider buying and what you should stay away from.

@SportsResearch and @NaturesBounty are both great. The Kirkland brand, however, is not so great.

Here are some considerations when choosing Fish Oil:

🔘 Has it been third-party tested?
🔘 Does it list out each form of Omega-3?
🔘 Are EPA and DHA listed separately?
🔘 What’s the potency? You want around 500mg of EPA and DHA.

If I’m at Costco, I’m going with Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil from Sports Research. Nature’s Bounty is a close second, but I’m staying far away from the Kirkland brand.

Today, I’m reviewing RHO, a supplement company, to help you see through what’s likely to be the next big marketing trend: longevity.

The short version: RHO’s products are overpriced and under-dosed.

Here’s the breakdown:

🔘 NAD+: You need between 100-300mg per day. RHO’s formula has 100mg.
🔘 Resveratrol: Ideal dosage is 500-1000mg per day. RHO has only 75mg.
🔘 Curcumin: You need 400-600mg per day. RHO provides 200mg.
🔘 Glutathione: RHO includes 500mg, which is actually a decent amount, but you’re better off taking N-acetylcysteine and Glycine, the precursors to Glutathione, which are more bioavailable.

For these three supplements, RHO will cost you $130/month or $113/month if you subscribe and save.

Now, here’s my routine and cost breakdown:

🔘 NMN – 500mg for $10/month
🔘 Curcumin – 500mg for $11/month
🔘 Resveratrol – 1000mg for $28/month
🔘 N-acetylcysteine + Glycine – $17/month
 
Total: $66/month, which is half the price of RHO, and more importantly, my dosages are actually effective.

🚨 NAD+ is a heavily debated supplement. I’ve heard strong perspectives on both if it’s worthless or worthwhile. A lot of scientists I respect say it’s useless to take while others see value in it. I personally am still taking NMN, because the $10/month it costs is negligible for me. However, I think the evidence could go either way at this time.

🚨 Resveratrol is another heavily debated longevity supplement. At this time, it seems like the evidence is not compelling for its use. I don’t think there will be any ill health effects but I don’t believe it is likely to be beneficial to humans.

Let me know what products to review next in the comments!

Today’s weekly grocery haul is coming from Aldi!

Originally, I planned to shop at Walmart, but a surprise fire alarm forced a quick change of plans—so we pivoted to Aldi instead.

Aldi is a powerhouse when it comes to affordability, offering a solid produce selection and constantly rolling out innovative, diet-friendly products (like high-fiber wraps!). In this video, I take you through my entire grocery haul for the week, breaking down why I choose each item—from antioxidants and anthocyanins to sulforaphane.

I also dive into The Protein Test and The Lean Protein Test, giving you practical tools to make smarter choices for your diet next time you hit the store!

Your daily calories DO NOT restart at midnight.

Think about your calories like a bank account.

If you have a goal of eating 2000 calories in a day and eat 2800, those 800 extra calories roll into the next day. So, even if you work really hard Monday through Friday to maintain your deficit, the weekend can absolutely obliterate that deficit if you throw caution to the wind, stop logging, and eat whatever you want.

🔑Consistency is key! Remember to maintain your dieting practices 7 days a week, not 5. Or you can pull yourself out of any progress real fast.

I got this comment recently: What if I don’t like fish? Is there something else I can do to get Omega-3s?

Your richest sources for EPA and DHA are going to be salmon, trout, and mackerel but there are other options. Here at @TraderJoes, I would pick up:

1️⃣ Grass-fed beef – Has a higher amount of EPA and DHA compared to grain-fed.
2️⃣ Cage-free eggs – In an ideal world, pasture-raised would be even better but this is what’s available at Trader Joe’s.
3️⃣ Chia, hemp, flax seeds – Contains ALA which tends to be less bioavailable than EPA or DHA but still valuable.
4️⃣ Omega-3 supplements – I take prescription-grade fish oil and commonly recommend Nordic Naturals to clients.
