Then Dr. Jockers' 3 Key Tips are going to be absolutely critical for you!    When we eat solid food it puts a lot of mechanical tension on the intestinal membrane, so embracing liquid nutrition is paramount. This allows our body to expend less energy breaking our food down.    Then, if you are looking to work out which foods are causing you problems, it helps to eat food in isolation. So consider eating your broccoli for lunch – and then steak on its own for dinner.   Learn about how to make a good protein shake, why it's essential to cook your food really well and take a few deep breaths before mealtime.    You don't need to be in fight or flight when it's time to eat. Ramp up that digestive system and optimize your digestion. Check out the tips inside and start practicing them today for better gut health. Let's dive into the show!    "Before you eat, you need to activate a part of your nervous system called your parasympathetic nervous system. That's the system that helps you relax, heal, and digest your food." ~ Dr. David Jockers Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio In This Episode:   Tip#1: Embracing liquid nutrition Making a good protein shake Tip#2: Eating Food in isolation The importance of cooking your food really well Tip #3 Reduce stress   Resources: Mushroom Mindboost Pure Health Research - Free bottle of Nano Powered Omega 3 when you buy Joint Support!     Connect with Dr. Jockers: Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/drjockers/ Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/DrDavidJockers YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/user/djockers Website – https://drjockers.com/ If you are interested in being a guest on the show, we would love to hear from you! Please contact us here! - https://drjockers.com/join-us-dr-jockers-functional-nutrition-podcast/

Our brains rely on SO many compounds found in nature. These include vitamins and minerals, but also things like polysaccharides, flavonoids, amino acids, carotenoids, folates, enzymes, and so, so much more. But how many of these are you actually getting?   Due to modern farming practices, environmental pollution, and the continued loss of nutrients in our foods, most people aren’t taking in nearly enough of what their brains need.   If you’re experiencing cognition problems like memory loss or brain fog, then chances are you too are missing out on a lot of these important compounds.   The good news? Medicinal mushrooms contain ALL of these compounds and more! This is why our friends over at Purality Health have infused five of the most nutritious medicinal mushrooms with their MICELLE LIPOSOMAL formula to create Mushroom Mindboost.   Purality Health’s patented formula allows these rare, highly beneficial mushroom compounds to be safely shuttled directly into your bloodstream. The result is clearer thinking, improved memory retention, and feeling as spry as your young self again!   The best part? Mushroom Mindboost tastes just like chocolate syrup, but without the sugar or artificial sweeteners! And today, we have a 30% OFF coupon for you!

In today’s episode, Dr. Jockers reveals why wheat and wheat flour are a hidden carb that spikes your blood sugar more than you might think. Learn how these everyday foods, loaded with glyphosate, can disrupt your gut health and lead to inflammation.   You’ll discover the dangers of consuming non-organic wheat, including its impact on your microbiome and mitochondria. This silent culprit can cause intestinal permeability, allowing harmful substances to seep into your bloodstream and wreak havoc on your health.   Dr. Jockers also shares why organic sourdough bread might be a safer option for those who want to enjoy bread without the negative effects. The fermentation process lowers gluten content and offers benefits like improved blood sugar regulation and reduced inflammation.     In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction to Glyphosate and Its Dangers 00:24 Welcome to Dr. Jocker's Functional Nutrition Podcast 03:10 Hidden Carb Worse Than Sugar 04:20 The Dangers of Wheat and Wheat Flour 09:48 Benefits of Organic Sourdough Bread 13:19 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   If you're serious about reducing your toxic load, I highly recommend upgrading to the P600 ceramic cookware.
