0:00.0	On today's episode of the Real Foodology podcast.
0:02.5	To give reference on the issue of bioaccumulation and toxicity and how it works,
0:08.2	if you're just eating sardines and anchovies, probably not accumulating a lot.
0:13.1	But the way that some of these chemicals move up the food chain, getting stuck in the fat
0:18.0	tissues or the muscles, when you get further up the food chain, whether it's
0:23.1	a tuna or a swordfish or give you an example of a shark or a whale, when whales wash up

1:29.9	from non-GMO eggs, nurtured in low density, antibiotic-free conditions, fed microalgae-based
1:35.8	oils and innovative protein alternatives for fish meal like fly-soldier larva and mycelium protein.

1:45.7	They go and they find these amazing farmers around the world that are doing right by our health.
1:51.1	As we know that traditional conventionally farmed fish is not good for us and I still stand by that.
1:56.4	However, there are farmers that are doing it right and creating really good healthy fish. And what's amazing
