What about the data on supplements that you talk about in your book?

I think that seems to like enrage people whenever you share what data there is on supplements.

So what does it say about supplements and longevity?

Well, if I ever give a presentation, if I want to summarize the data for the benefits of supplements and people who are healthy.

You have a balanced diet and whatnot.

I show the slide and it's blank because there's nothing.

They think I have a problem with the slide.

But no, there's a problem with the supplements.

Wow.

Okay. What about this?

If you don't eat fish, is it still helpful to take omega-3 supplements?

You're saying, like, if you have a well-balanced diet.

Yeah, you might.

I mean, that's probably one that isn't going to hurt you.

The problem is you've got to take a fair amount of omega-3, good quality omega-3.

You're better off to get that from food sources, which most people do.

But if you can't, that's a reasonable plan, yes.

But to be fair, we're not talking about people who have a deficit

or where we know there's a medicinal use

for something like folate for pregnant women or thiamine if you've been drinking, just to be clear

that.

Yeah, no, deficiencies are different.
