Alaskan Leader Cod
- All Alaskan seafood is wild and sustainable, and it is managed for protection against overfishing, habitat damage, and pollution
- Hook n Line Caught: It’s a non-destructive way of catching fish - the fish are caught one at a time, avoiding bycatch
- Flash Frozen Immediately: Preserves all the nutrients
- MSC Certified Sustainable (Marine Stewardship Council)
Blue fish label is only applied to wild fish or seafood from fisheries that have been certified to the MSC Fisheries Standard, a science-based set of requirements for sustainable fishing

Cod Benefits
Choline
Choline is a precursor to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine - prompts synaptogenesis
Molybdenum
The molybdenum cofactor activates four essential enzymes
- Sulfite oxidase
- Aldehyde oxidase
Xanthine oxidase -
Mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component (mARC)
Selenium & Phosphorus
+ an array of B Vitamins
Ghee
ghee is a better version of butter with a richer taste, higher smoke point, deeper color, and more nutrients - contains almost no lactose
Ghee also contains butyric acid
bHB is a ketone body, beta-hydroxybutyrate, and butyrate is a short chain fatty acid (SCFA)
One paper all the way back from 1962 that showed how the (rat) liver can turn butyrate into beta-hydroxybutyrate (from here on, BHB), published in the Biochemical Journal. However, for the most part, and for practical purposes, it’s best to think of butyrate and BHB as separate.

Butyrate is also a signaling molecule:
Induces the secretion of glucagon-like peptide 1, improving insulin sensitivity.
Increases BDNF levels, promoting neuronal growth and health in the brain.
Inhibits histone deacetylases (HDACs) to change gene expression.
Inhibits NFkB and activates regulator T-cells to decrease inflammation.
Induces fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) to increase beta-oxidation and, thereby, increase fat burning and the production of ketones.
Garlic
12-week study (Advances in Therapy) found that a daily garlic supplement reduced the number of colds by 63% compared to a placebo
The average length of cold symptoms was also reduced by 70%, from 5 days in the placebo group to just 1.5 days in the garlic group

Lemon
Lemon helps in the detoxification process by stimulating bile to remove toxins - contains a soluble fiber known as pectin
