This episode is brought to you by PaleoValley. Our skin is the outermost reflection of our nervous system. And so we want to make sure that we're getting abundant amounts of high quality vitamin C. Now, unfortunately, people hear about the power of vitamin C, and they run out and get these synthetic vitamin C supplements. And over 90% of the vitamin C supplements that are on the market are coming from, and again, most people are not aware of this, genetically modified corn syrup and cornstarch. That's where the majority of these synthetic vitamin C supplements are coming from. And they are simply not affirmed in the data to have the same benefits as real food, whole food-based concentrates of vitamin C. In fact, taking these synthetic vitamin C supplements can actually be hazardous to our health. A 2013 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association Internal Medicine found that participants taking synthetic vitamin C supplements had twice the risk of developing kidney stones. Another study from researchers at USC found that taking synthetic vitamin C thickened the walls of participants' arteries 2.5 times faster than those who were not taking this synthetic version of this nutrient. This nutrient is incredibly important for reducing your risk of cardiovascular disease, for reducing the risk of abnormal kidney function when it's coming from real food, whole food sources of vitamin C. So yes, we want to make sure that our diet is rich in vitamin C-containing foods. And also, if you're going to utilize a vitamin C supplement, which I definitely recommend, especially when it comes to improving our skin health, we want to make sure that it's from real food, whole food concentrates. And for years, the only vitamin C supplement that I utilize is a combination of Camu Camu berry, Amla berry, and Acerola cherry, the three most vitamin C-dense super fruits in the world. And this is all together in the Essential C Complex from PaleoValley. There's no binders, no fillers, no synthetic ingredients. It is just the most bioavailable form of vitamin C that you're going to find. Head over to paleovalley.com/model. That's paleovalley.com/ model.

This episode is brought to you by Organifi. Did you know that there's a spice in your spice cabinet that can very likely improve your insulin sensitivity and help you to burn more fat? This spice has been utilized for thousands of years, and now today we've got tons of peer-reviewed evidence showing how incredible it is for so many aspects of human health. I'm talking about the renowned spice, turmeric. Now, turmeric is actually in the ginger family, but it has its own claim to fame today. Researchers at the Department of Neurology at USC found that one of the active ingredients in turmeric, curcumin, is able to help eliminate amyloid plaque in the brain, slow down the aging of our brain cells, and also help to remove heavy metals and reduce inflammation in the brain. By the way, I'm talking about its impact on body fat. Turmeric has been found to both improve insulin sensitivity, reduce blood fats, and directly act upon our fat cells. And to take it up one more mental notch, research published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology points to turmeric's potential to reduce both anxiety and depression. Turmeric functions like a Swiss army knife for human health and benefits. And today more than ever, people are going beyond the casual curry and doing one of the most remarkable teas that you're going to find and that is having a turmeric latte. My favorite turmeric latte, my favorite turmeric drink comes from Organifi Gold. And this is because it also has other bio-potentiators that make turmeric work even better in the human body. I'm talking about cinnamon. I'm talking about ginger, and also here's the thing that makes Organifi's Gold so remarkable it also has the medicinal mushroom reishi which according to research published in pharmacology biochemistry and behavior, they found that reishi was able to decrease our sleep latency meaning that we fall asleep faster, was found to improve our overall sleep time and also improve our deep sleep time and light sleep time. So our REM sleep and non-REM sleep are prettyΩ remarkable. So I highly encourage you to check out this incredible Organifi Gold blend go to organifi.com/model. That's organifi.com/model.
