March 5
22 mins

Episode Description

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers explores the seven root causes of inflammation, which are major contributors to chronic conditions such as cancer, heart disease, and autoimmunity. Understanding these underlying factors is essential to addressing inflammation at its source. Dr. Jockers highlights how issues like leaky gut and low stomach acid can trigger systemic inflammation, leading to far-reaching consequences for health.

 

You'll also learn about the importance of balancing blood sugar to prevent inflammation. Elevated blood sugar levels create advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which damage tissues and lead to oxidative stress. Dr. Jockers explains how blood sugar imbalances set the stage for inflammation and how you can stabilize it to promote healing.

 

Additionally, the episode dives into the impacts of physical and emotional trauma, toxic load, and circadian rhythm dysfunction on the body's inflammation levels. Dr. Jockers offers practical insights on how to reduce these stressors and better support your body's healing processes, enabling you to restore balance and prevent further health complications.
