Jeffrey Jaime compares the health of Navy bottlenose dolphins to human nutrition, pointing to the dolphins' 66-year lifespan under Navy care. He recommends eating two to four fish servings weekly for omega benefits, and mentions how cod liver oil treated rickets in the 1800s.
I was recruited by the Navy about 24 years ago to help better understand health and wellness of aging. Navy dolphins. The Navy has cared for this sustained population of about 100 bottlenose dolphins for over 66.0years. There's so many studies been showing that the more fish we eat, if we eat two to four servings a week, that the better our health. So dolphins are onto something. So we know that fish are good for they contain a lot of important nutrients, including the omegas with regard to fish oil. You know, fish oil goes back to the 1800s industrial revolution of that's was our cod liver oil was our main source of vitamin D and it helped to get rid of, to cure rickets. I mean, so fish oils played a really important role in supporting our health.
