222: Udo Erasmus- Flax Oil, WWII, and a Pandemic

Udo Erasmus…

wow… what can I say about this amazing human?  I think he says a lot in this episode.  We talk about a life and a journey that I wasn’t ready to go on, but I’m so glad we did.  From leaving a Nazi-occupied territory to becoming a legend in the world of Flax Seed Oil, to living through the crazy year of 2020.

Here’s a little bit about our guest:

He was poisoned by pesticides in 1980. No medical treatment was available. I have a university background in biosciences, genetics, biochemistry. Used it to search the literature for answers. Found them in nutrition and especially in the area of essential fatty acids (omega 3 had just been established as an essential nutrient). Learned about the damage done to oils by processing and food preparation. Realized that oils need to be made with health rather than shelf life in mind. Developed the method. Developed plant omega 3 oil and blend. Then went on to digestion, then greens, and then to other issues that affect health. Udo loves education and the application of new knowledge.

He developed a method for making oils with health in mind, developed an oil blend balanced in omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids. This oil has helped thousands of people with health, energy levels, performance (40-60% increase within 30 days of starting to take the right amount of it), recovery and healing (1/3 to 1/2 the usual time), brain function, pregnancy, hormone and cell receptor functions, and skin, hair and nail growth. I also work in other aspects of physical and mental health, focus, concentration, calmness, awareness, and social and environmental issues. Insights and practices.

“Losing my health really made me value life. Helping others with what I’ve learned and continue to learn seems like the best way to spend my time on earth.”- Udo
