In this episode…
You’re avoiding seed oils. Skipping canola. Saying no to soybean oil.
But are your eggs sneaking it all back in?
I was shocked to learn that four conventional eggs contain more PUFAs than a tablespoon of canola oil. Even more stunned to realize that labels like “pastured,” “free-range,” and even “organic” aren’t protecting us the way we think.
In today’s episode, I sat down with Ashley Armstrong—a mechanical engineer turned regenerative farmer and founder of Angel Acres and Nourish Cooperative—to expose the dirty truth behind our egg supply. We break down how most “healthy” eggs are still packed with polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs), why that’s a metabolic nightmare, and how industrial chicken feed is quietly hijacking your health goals.
We also dig into the sketchy marketing terms used by big food companies to fool well-meaning consumers, why bird flu panic is likely more scam than science, and what it means when your eggshells are too thin to crack cleanly.
This episode will change the way you shop—and help you rethink what quality food really means.
Key discussion points…
- The hidden PUFAs in conventional and “high-quality” eggs
- The health risks of high-PUFA eggs
- Arsenic in chicken feed
- Marketing deception in the egg industry
- Why pasture-raised doesn’t always mean better
- How to choose better eggs
- How antibiotics, vaccines & factory farming are linked
- Skyrocketing egg prices and the bird flu controversy
- Where to find Ashley’s eggs
- Ashley’s vision for a regenerative food system
- Why small farmers are under attack and how to support them
- How to make better food choices starting today
We are what we eat, but we are also what what we eat eats.
