Dr. Eric Osansky is the author of 'Natural Treatment Solutions for Hyperthyroidism and Graves' as well as a podcast called 'Save My Thyroid' that you guys should definitely check out.

My favorite C60 products for Keto & IF lifestyles include C60 Purple Power in Organic MCT Coconut Oil (can add this to your coffee) and their delicious Sugar-Free C60 Gummies (made with allulose and monk fruit)!

When it comes to gut health, bone broth is one of my ‘go-to’ items I add to my diet. But, not all collagen is created equal. Many brands use poor-quality bones and heating methods that remove all of the potent benefits of collagen. That is why I choose to use Paleovalley Bone Broth Protein Powder, you can get all the gut healing benefits without the mess from a company that uses only 100% grass-fed and finished cows and is not processed with high heat or extracted with harmful chemicals. There are no fillers, flow agents, or added flavors. There is only ONE ingredient in this product and it's bovine bone broth protein. Visit paleovalley.com/jockers “The gut is one of the primary areas where people have inflammation. And apple cider vinegar helps to balance blood sugar, to lower the glycemic impact of the food we're consuming. And it helps to improve insulin sensitivity and bring down inflammation as well." - Dr. Jockers Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio Resources: Visit https://shopc60.com/jockers - Use code “JOCKERS” to get 15% off!
