Dr. DiNicolantonio: What You Didn’t Know About Salt, Seed Oils, and Micronutrients
Description
Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” for your health but still not feeling your best? Maybe it’s the brain fog that won’t lift, the energy crash mid-afternoon, or the bloating that seems to happen no matter what you eat. It’s frustrating, right? But what if those symptoms weren’t “just normal” but rather signals your body is craving something deeper—like a reset?
In this episode of Rooted in Wellness, I sit down with Dr. James DiNicolantonio, a cardiovascular research scientist, to explore the silent ways our diet and lifestyle might be holding us back. From the dangers of seed oils to the surprising impact of nutrient deficiencies, Dr. James and I dive into the science behind optimizing your energy, digestion, and mental clarity.
We also discuss the critical role of salt in brain function, how to manage sugar cravings without complete restriction, and why your morning coffee might be draining your body more than fueling it.
Dr. James DiNicolantonio is a leading expert in cardiovascular health and nutrition science, with over 300 publications in medical literature and bestselling books like The Salt Fix and Superfuel. He is also the Medical Advisor for IM8, and provides exclusive insights into the groundbreaking science driving IM8’s mission—a company dedicated to revolutionizing health and wellness through cutting-edge, evidence-based solutions designed to enhance vitality and longevity.
