In this episode of Dr. Jockers’ Functional Nutrition Podcast, Dr. Jack Wolfson reveals how inflammation drives heart attacks, strokes, and AFib—and why medications aren’t the answer. Learn how a leaky gut leads to a "leaky heart" and the importance of addressing root causes like diet and stress.  

 

 

Discover why seafood, like wild salmon and salmon roe, is a superfood packed with omega-3s that fight inflammation and protect your heart. Dr. Wolfson explains why plant-based omega-3s fall short and shares how these nutrients lower disease risk.  

 

 

Uncover the dangers of microplastics in arteries, which triple heart attack and stroke risk. Dr. Wolfson offers detox tips, sleep hacks, and the healing power of nature, like sunlight and forest bathing. Transform your heart health with these insights.
