The link between a keto diet and weight loss is very well known, but can this approach to nutrition really be used to heal chronic disease? Dr. David Jockers believes it can. David is functional nutrition counselor, popular guest on The Dr. Oz Show, and the author of Keto Metabolic Breakthrough and The Fasting Transformation. His natural health website receives over a million views per month from people curious about keto and natural health. Tune in to discover: How David used a keto diet plan and intermittent fasting to reverse his own cancer The importance of herbal medicine and other natural health tips How women can use functional nutrition training to work with their natural hormone cycles After suffering from severe irritable bowel syndrome to the point of becoming quite underweight for his height, David began to experiment with adhering to a ketogenic diet. After receiving a skin cancer diagnosis, he got even more serious about tackling the issue of nutrition. The results of these personal experiments not only changed his life; they continue to change the lives of the people he educates every day. What do inexpensive cooking oils, pesticides, and factory farmed meat have in common? They all cause inflammation and inflammation causes chronic diseases, like cancer. According to Dr. Jockers, cancer cells thrive when they are feeding on glucose. When we eat carbohydrates, those carbs are converted into glucose, which feeds cancer cells. Removing carbohydrates and feeding our healthy cells with ketones means starvation for cancer. Cancer is not the only ailment that may need to look out for the keto approach to nutrition. Stress is at an all-time high throughout the world today and it can take a major toll on a person's digestive health. A ketogenic diet in combination with a healthy exercise routine and natural herbal supplementation can promote bile flow and a healthy environment within the stomach, without using commonly prescribed acid bocking medications.   For more information visit https://drjockers.com/  Episode also available on Apple Podcasts: http://apple.co/30PvU9C

If you've tried collagen for aging skin and haven't gotten the results you want... It's because most collagen is missing a critical ingredient.

With this "missing link," you can turn loose, saggy skin –– into tight, glowing, younger-looking skin!   So what is that missing link I am talking about? VITAMIN C.   Of course, you may know Vitamin C as a powerful immune-boosting nutrient...   But did you know that Vitamin C is a critical nutrient for anti-aging? You see, Vitamin C is the "glue" that holds collagen together in your body. And if you're low in Vitamin C, well, all of that collagen you're taking is pointless.   And here's the thing, not all Vitamin C supplements are created equally…   If you're taking Vitamin C in capsule or tablet form, you are missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed (you can thank your stomach acid for that).   However, our friends over at Purality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called ‘MICELLE LIPOSOMAL' technology which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream – proven to be 800% more efficient!   So, if your skin is looking older than you...

Why is that so? Dr. Jockers explains the integral role of the mitochondria in the overall vitality of our body and brain functions. He also talks about the gut and mitochondrial connection and how gut health is key to mitochondrial health. He shares how a higher level of inflammation can bring damage to the mitochondria and the different strategies we can implement to restore its health.   “If we have a higher level of inflammation, that tells the mitochondria to slow down our energy production and create oxidative stress that triggers the cell-danger response.” -Dr. David Jockers   Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio   In This Episode:   - Identify what causes mitochondrial dysfunction and how it is triggered   - Recognize the factors that damage the mitochondria and when is burning sugar for fuel more advisable versus burning fat   - Understand how genetics come into play when it comes to the unique ways that our mitochondria handle toxicity   - A powerful way to heal and support the mitochondria, and stimulate autophagy   - Check out the best sources of protein depending on your diet and lifestyle, and how protein helps sustain your energy while keeping the cravings at bay   - When you're working on the restoration of your mitochondrial health, you have to focus on your gut health.

This is what inspired Dr. Matthew Dawson to innovate on a unique approach to personal health care through precision medicine. He believes that anyone can achieve optimum performance if we adopt the right lifestyle, diet, and nutrition to befit our unique needs. This can be done through data analysis drawn-out per individual. Studies have proven that not everything that works for the majority works for everybody and if careful attention is also given to the minority, their issues with their health can also be addressed. Get to know more about this new approach to healthcare and understand how it can work for you as an individual. Or if you're a practitioner, how it can give you an edge over other practitioners in treating your patients.   “We treat patients in our regular system based on statistics and epidemiology. One says ‘do this because the study says it works,' when what the study's saying is that it works for 60, 70, or 80% of people. You're not 70-80% of people, you're you.” -Dr. Matthew Dawson   Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio   In This Episode:   - Learn how precision medicine deviates from the traditional paradigm in medicine and why “precision” is key to holistic treatment.   - These are the key lab markers that need to be checked to determine the best type of diet and lifestyle recommendation that works in addressing the problem.   - Contrary to what previous research is saying, a study has proven that caffeine is not always good for everybody.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION:  On this week's episode of the Girlfriend Doctor Podcast, we had a wonderful conversation with Dr. David Jockers. David is a natural health doctor, functional nutritionist, author, and certified strength and conditioning specialist. We dive into many topics regarding the benefits of intermittent fasting, strategies to adapt to eating less, knowing your “Why”, and much more. I'm sure that you've probably heard or seen something regarding the benefits of fasting but in this conversation, we discuss the details on how to ease into a fasting routine without causing getting burnt out too quickly. Food is just as addicting, if not more, than any substance out there, so we should be more careful on what we are ingesting into our bodies and at what time. Dr. Jockers also details how he does a 24-hour fast once a week and how blood sugar and insulin levels impact sex drive and hormones.  We are literally what we consume, and if we constantly eat foods that are not good for our body, we transmute that low energy into our daily lives. We go in depth on the importance of fasting but if you would like to really go deep-sea diving into the topic, make sure to purchase Dr. Jocker's book, The Fasting Transformation. And while you're at it, purchase his other books that will help you improve your physical, mental, and emotional body!

Why are you doing this, right? Having a big “why”. If you have a “why” that makes you cry.” “I just realized, wow. When I'm not eating in the morning and I kind of condense my eating window, and I was eating in a 4-6 hour eating window, and I was eating a lot of food in that window, I just felt a lot better. I had more energy, I was stronger in the gym. I just felt significantly better.”   “All of our ancestors fasted because, you know, they didn't have refrigerators and pantries. For certain seasons of the year, they were pretty much dependent on whatever they can find that day to eat.”  “Our body is better at adapting to fasting than overeating… better at adapting to food scarcity than to adapting to food abundance.

Wasn't absorbing nutrients. Well, even though I was trying to work out, I was trying to eat a lot. You know, I was eating like six meals a day, you know, the personal trainer diet. And that was when I discovered a book called the maker's diet by Jordan Rubin [4'42]  My goal is I'm going to drink this gallon before noon and by drinking continuously like that it's suppressed any sort of hunger and actually felt really energized. Like I felt great, really mentally clear. I performed at my highest level in school. I was top of my class, and I felt great now. I didn't actually get hungry till around, I don't know, two or three o'clock in the afternoon. And then all of a sudden I got ravenous, nobody eats like two meals and like a five-hour eating window, but I had never heard the term intermittent fasting, but that's exactly what I was doing.   [9'58”]  You need a certain amount of insulin, for example, to activate T4 to T3 to activate your thyroid hormone.  You need it to help produce and have free estrogens, free progesterone, and free testosterone. So if you're on a calorie-restricted diet for a long period of time, and especially on a low carb calorie, restricted diet, you are going to suppress the production of these hormones and you're not going to feel good.   [13'21] why do I still weigh the same? But that's also because of miscommunication is. Is wrong between your brain and your fat cells and, the body thinks you're starving. So your body's going to hold on to that. So I'm so glad you brought that up and also glad you brought up, you know, adapting to dietary changes because.Highly neglected in our society   [17'07]  So sometimes for some people, especially if you've noticed in the past that you just don't feel as good eating meat, eating, eating more fats, you might just tighten your amount up. Right? So you might focus on a lot of bitter herbs, parsley, cilantro, drinking ginger tea, and doing ginger radishes, right.   Things like that. That will all be bitter. We say bitter is good for the liver. Right. So bitter really helps stimulate bile flow. So consuming more of those in your day.    [28'26] So I get out and I just ground my body for about five or 10 minutes and that's time to, I just move around.   I pray kind of just really focus on just being grateful, right. And starting my day, with just the right mindset. And while I'm grounded, you know, Ana oil, pulling some stacking, all these colleagues, principles and stretching and. Yeah. So that's typically how I'll start, you know, and then I'll come in, I'll make some herbal tea and, uh, take some supplements and then I'll sit down and read some of the Bible.
