Summary
This episode is brought to you by Paleovalley, Athletic Greens, and InsideTracker.
A shocking 99 percent of Americans are nutrient deficient, including over 90 percent who are deficient in omega-3 fats and 50 percent who are deficient in magnesium. Add to that chronic stress and a heavily processed diet with foods lacking nutrition, and it’s a recipe for nutrient-deficiency disaster.
In today’s episode, I talk with Chris Kresser, Dhru Purohit, and Dr. Elizabeth Boham about why so many of us are nutrient deficient and what to do about it.

| 0:10.2 | Hi, Doctors' Pharmacy listeners. It's Dr. Mark here. If you've been following me, you know that I'm |
| 0:14.7 | obsessed with understanding the latest research on longevity and how we can apply it to our daily lives. |
| 0:19.8 | So I wrote a book about it. Think of it as a roadmap to optimal aging. It's called Young Forever, |

| 0:38.8 | If you've been following me for a while, you know that I often talk about how eating organ |
| 0:42.3 | meats is so good for your health. Now, I know it can be hard to work them into your diet, but when |
| 0:46.2 | we don't eat things like liver, kidney, and heart regularly, we're missing out on wonderful sources |
| 0:50.2 | of essential nutrients. Organ meats are natures, multivitamins, and the richest sources of natural |
| 0:55.6 | vitamin A, B vitamins, and minerals that we have. But liver isn't everyone's first choice for a delicious |
| 1:00.6 | meal, which is why my friends at Paleo Valley created their grass-fed organ complex supplement. |
| 1:05.9 | Paleo Valley grass-fed organ complex contains three different organs from healthy grass-fed |
| 1:10.4 | pasturease cows. So you're getting a wide array of nutrients, and each ingredient is sourced |
| 1:14.2 | from a family-run farm in the US. It's been gently freeze-dried in order to preserve as many of the |
| 1:19.3 | nutrients as possible. The end result is an odorless, tasteless, burpless supplement that offers all |
| 1:24.8 | the benefits of organ meats in an easy to swallow capsule form. If you're struggling with brain fog, |
