DHA, on the other hand is benefical for most all bodily functions. Can get DHA without EPA in some algae-based supplements.

Very interesting. Thank you. If it's not too much trouble, it would be nice to have a list of the citations/references in the video description.

We are going to go into detail about this webinar in our next digital digest, coming out later this month. However, you can also get copies of the slides if you email us.

Confusion about inflammation, immunity and long chain omega-3 fatty Acids. Too much EPA will damp down inflammation, which can be important for some people (eg if they have high C reactive protein), BUT your immune system NEEDS inflammation, so you can get too much EPA.

Also, zinc absorption is inhibited by a high grain diet. If feeling cold or flu coming on can benefit from easily absorbed zinc lozenges dissolved in the mouth.

Zinc absorption is lower with a high-phytate diet (found in whole grains and other plants). If you eat a lot of those foods, it would be good to get additional sources of zinc to overcome the effects of phytate - there are also ways of preparing foods to remove more phytate.

So, a complete multi vitamin after the age of 55 is recommended? Even on a whole food plant based diet?

It is difficult to get all of your micronutrient needs from plants alone - supplements are recommended for many of the gaps. We simply recommend a multivitamin as an insurance policy, because it is difficult to know what vitamins and minerals you may be lacking.
