Thanks Robb!

It is a bit confusing. I have been checking it out on my own. The kids DHA supps (Nordic Naturals Kids DHA for example) usually have a small amount of EPA in them as well. Don’t know about formula as fortunately we don’t have to use that. The Mercola site recommends against CLO for everyone, but for Vit A/D ratio questions (not EPA) coming from a study by a Dr. Cannell. Weston Price and others still recommend CLO for kids and infants though. I’ll keep checking it out.

Thanks again, Robb!

Joel-
yes, this is why infant formulas and supps only contain DHA. I do not believe you want to start an EPA regimen until after about 2 years old…you need to double check that, im going to be hammered and will not be able to.

Good to hear about the progress! It’s like this stuff works!

CrossFit emailed back and said that they would email material 10 days prior to the cert., which should be around Oct. 28 or 29.

I am also going to Huntington Beach cert and have not received any “preparatory material”. I’ll email Crossfit and see what’s up!

Hi Robb,

I have just recently starting to put some CLO in my 8 month old’s food. However, I just found when perusing ThePaleoDiet.com FAQ’s this statement: “Infants should not be given EPA in the form of fish oil because it competes with AA metabolism and can result in impaired motor development as well as growth.”. This was the first I’d heard about this. Living in the Seattle area, I am interested in my baby getting some Vit D as well as n-3′s. Can you shed any light on whether CLO is OK for an 8 month old, and if not, when it would be appropriate? He is still nursing and the mom does take fish oil/clo so the n-3′s are probably getting to him. Being winter and flu season, some Vit D would be nice though, right?

BTW, I went to the Cert in July and have been non-WAM Paleo since. I am eating quite a bit more protein and about the same carb and fat. My weight is the same, but I am getting stronger. In addition, it is really liberating to not count blocks. Sometimes I guesstimate just to see what I am eating, but I really just eat. I love it!

Thanks for this great resource. I am looking forward to your book.

So true Robb, so true! There really are no words to case the feeling you get when you eat right. I know that I myself have come out on the better end of it. COMPLETELY off all anxiety and depression meds only 2 months into Paleo diet. AMAZING!!! Thanks again Robb!

Going out on a limb here but I;d say dial your intake back toa level in which you do not get headaches….

No need to battle. Ask folks to try it for a month and let the results speak for themselves. if they do not want to jump in, their loss.

AMAZING Cert Robb!! Thanks to you and Nikki for making the trek to Bozeman, highly appreciated as we have had to travel for ALL the other certs!

I am wishing I had a mini Robb Wolf on my soulder everytime I get into the nutrition battle with all these close minded fucks in this world. I just don’t seem to have the knowledge to knock them down a few, but I am surely doing my homewrok so that I can!! Thanks again brother!!

Over the past couple weeks i started taking high doses of Fish Oil and its giving me headaches. I started taking (Carlson Fish Oil Softgels 550mg EPA/DHA per pill) 2 pills twice a day with meals and have slowly increased the dose to 4-5 pills twice a day and have noticed a strange headaches right above my eyes. I thought maybe my pills were bad so i changed to a different brand of fish oil and i still get the same headaches. I’m not alergic to fish or any other foods and I have never had problem with headaches in the past. Has any one else experienced headaches with fish oil? Please help!

Hi Robb,
I am going to be attending the nutrition cert in Huntington Beach in Nov. I was reading the post above about “reading the preparatory material” and I feel like I’ve missed something. Should I be expecting something in the mail from CF? If not, what should I be reading in advance?
Thanks
Addie

Robb, great seminar this weekend. IF and strict paleo has commenced. Let’s hope nobody has to die…this could induce a dose of crazy, but I’m ready for it. I look forward to following your blog.

Thanks again,
Jessica

Hey karen!!
that would be NowFoods: Super Enzymes. Start with 1 cap/meal. Increase to 2 or 3 caps or until you feel just a little warmth in your stomach. You MUST use this with meals that contain protein/fats.

Thank you for making the trek to the cert! keep me posted on your progress!

Robb,

Thanks so much for visiting MT. Great stuff learned during the seminar, and I can’t wait to apply it in my own life and pass it along to the athletes that work with me. Life’s gonna suck with out those Reese’s cups though.

Come back soon.

I was at your Nutrition Certification in Boseman. I asked you about the supplement to take if your Gallbladder was gone. I thought I had written it down but checked my notes, and it wasn’t there. Would you let me know what it was. Thank you Karen
