Description

In this episode of The Wellness Zone, Dr. Barry Sears takes you on a fascinating journey through the history of fish oil—from 18th-century transatlantic cod trade to the Norwegian innovations that transformed the industry. You’ll even hear why kids in the early 1900s were force-fed spoonfuls of cod liver oil before leaving the house—and how that tablespoon delivered 25 times more omega-3s than the average American gets today.
