Perilla oil might just be olive oil’s best sidekick, and Dr. Gundry is laying out the many benefits of perilla oil in this episode. If you care about gut health, chronic inflammation, or leaky gut, this is an oil you need to know about. It comes from a plant a lot of you probably already have growing in your own garden, and Dr. Gundry says it does something almost no other fat in your diet can do. He explains why this one seed oil earns a rare exception to his usual seed oil warnings, why it’s shelf-stable and safe to cook with at high heat unlike so many other healthy oils, including olive oil, and the specific reason it belongs in your kitchen even if you already swear by olive oil or flaxseed oil.
Dr. Gundry also gets into the omega-3 fat that makes this oil so unique, how it compares to the fats found in olive oil, avocado oil, and nuts, and why almost nothing else in your pantry works quite the same way. Plus, he shares a real patient case where adding a few tablespoons of this oil daily transformed a dangerously abnormal lab result in just three months, no other major changes required.
If you’ve never heard of perilla oil before, that’s about to change.
