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 this episode, Dr. Jockers dives deep with Dr. Sara Pugh into how light influences your mitochondria, hormones, and inflammation in ways food alone never could. You’ll hear how sunrise sets your body clock, why sunset prepares your system for rest, and how the balance of light and darkness fuels cellular health.   You’ll learn how artificial blue light at night can disrupt cortisol, blood sugar, and cravings, and why the wrong kind of light exposure can be just as damaging as poor nutrition. Discover why your mitochondria respond to light as much as to food and how this hidden factor impacts your mood, metabolism, and resilience.   We also explore practical steps—like grounding, sauna use, and cold therapy—that boost your energy and improve sleep. Along the way, you’ll find out why sunscreen and sunglasses may do more harm than good, and how structured water and omega-3 fats fit into the bigger picture of cellular repair.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers uncovers the surprising truth about Stevia and how it impacts blood sugar and insulin. You’ll hear the science behind why this natural sweetener may be better than artificial alternatives—and when it could backfire. This is where you’ll start questioning what you thought you knew about “safe” sweeteners.   You’ll also learn about the long-standing debate over Stevia and infertility, from tribal practices to animal studies that sparked controversy. Dr. Jockers breaks down why the evidence is far from conclusive, and what the FDA still refuses to say. There’s more to this story than the headlines reveal.   And if you’ve ever felt “off” after using Stevia, you’ll find out why. Hidden sensitivities, especially in those allergic to ragweed, can completely flip its effects. Understanding how your body personally responds could be the missing key to deciding if Stevia is really right for you.     In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction: Does Stevia Cause Infertility? 00:23 Podcast Welcome and Overview 02:51 Deep Dive: The Truth About Stevia 03:59 Stevia and Blood Sugar 05:08 Stevia's Health Benefits and Allergies 06:58 Controversy: Stevia and Infertility 13:26 Further Studies on Stevia and Infertility 16:09 Conclusion: Stevia's Impact on Health 18:47 Final Thoughts and Farewell   Struggling with stress, low energy, or poor sleep?

In this episode, Dr. Jockers breaks down exactly what happens inside your body during a 12, 24, and 48-hour fast. You’ll discover how these fasting windows affect fat burning, metabolism, and even your brain’s performance. The science behind it will show you why fasting is far more powerful than just skipping meals.   You’ll also learn how fasting lowers insulin, boosts growth hormone, and increases ketones—helping your body preserve muscle while burning fat. These shifts not only fuel your energy but also enhance mental clarity, creativity, and focus. The longer the fast, the deeper the benefits for your body and brain.   Beyond fat burning, fasting activates cellular repair processes like autophagy and stem cell production. These changes promote gut health, reduce inflammation, and support anti-aging at a deep level. By understanding these stages, you’ll be able to create a fasting routine that works best for your unique health goals.     In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction to Intermittent Fasting 03:20 The Science of Fasting: 12 to 14 Hours 08:40 The Science of Fasting: 16 Hours 14:03 The Science of Fasting: 20 to 24 Hours 17:43 The Science of Fasting: 3 to 5 Days 18:43 Fasting Strategies and Recommendations 20:39 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   If you want to burn belly fat…boost your energy levels…balance blood sugar…or relieve swelling in your legs or feet… Then you need to check out PureHealth Research immediately.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Joseph Antoun to unpack how fasting strategies, including fasting-mimicking diets, can rejuvenate immune cells, slow down inflammaging, and support overall healthy aging.   You’ll discover how chronic inflammation accelerates aging, why old “zombie” cells cause damage, and how fasting helps clear them out while replacing them with stronger, more resilient ones. The conversation also dives into immunosenescence, what happens when immune cells age, and how this process links to conditions like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and autoimmune disorders.   Dr. Antoun also explains the delicate balance between growth and repair in the body—and why our modern eating patterns keep us stuck in constant growth mode. By leveraging targeted fasting protocols, we can push our bodies toward autophagy, boost cell repair, and open the door to a healthier, longer life.   In This Episode: 00:00 Introduction to Fasting and Cellular Rejuvenation 00:48 Guest Introduction: Dr. Joseph Antoun 04:25 Understanding Chronic Inflammation and Inflammaging 10:10 The Role of Nutrition in Aging and Immune Health 13:13 Fasting Mimicking Diet: Science and Benefits 23:32 Fasting and Autoimmune Diseases 24:35 The Role of Stomach Acid in Digestion 26:28 ProLon and Biological Age Reduction 30:15 ProLon for Diabetes and Chronic Conditions 32:06 How to Use ProLon Effectively 38:06 Current Research and Future Directions 40:49 The Importance of Fasting in Human Health 42:39 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Looking for a clean, nutrient-packed snack?
