Omega-3 fatty acids have played a crucial role in the evolution of our intelligence. Due to our evolutionary history, however, we can efficiently utilize only aquatic omega-3 fatty acids. Yet, fish and seafood are no longer sufficiently available to us due to overfishing of the world's oceans, not to mention their contamination with pollutants. Algae oil is a purely plant-based source of aquatic omega-3 fatty acids and at the same time the only sustainable alternative to address the worldwide deficiency of aquatic omega-3 fatty acids. This deficiency is partly responsible for nearly all modern diseases--ranging from heart attacks to stroke, from depression to Alzheimer's, and from diabetes to cancer. During childhood development, a deficit of this essential brain-building substance leads to severe impairments in emotional, social, and rational intelligence--not least to ADHD and autism. Regular intake of algae oil prevents life-threatening omega-3 deficiency and makes an essential contribution to healthy living. In The Algae Oil Revolution , renowned scientist and bestselling author Michael Nehls introduces the reader to this sustainable and accessible substance, explains why and how it can prevent a range of diseases, and also sheds light on what this discovery means for the future of global human health.
