What are the Top 5 Most Inflammatory food ingredients? And how can you watch out for them when you prepare your own meals, eat out at restaurants, or shop for your food? Dr. Jockers is coming in hot today with warnings about the ingredients in our food that are most likely to trigger an inflammatory immune response. From gluten and corn starch to processed seed oils, and from trans fats and processed sugar to high fructose corn syrup and food preservatives, our favorite wellness expert is showing us what ingredients to look out for in our food – and more importantly WHY. Learn how we can head off chronic inflammation at the pass by becoming more mindful of what we put into our bodies before triggering an inflammatory immune response.

What is longevity? Jason Prall is the creator of ‘The Human Longevity Project’ and the author of the book ‘Beyond Longevity’. Jason is also a repeat guest, so check out episode 292 if you’d like to hear his first interview with Dr. Jockers! He’s interviewed centenarians (people who are 100 years or older) and visited ‘blue zone’ communities where people are aging well and is truly an expert in the field of longevity. Today he and Dr. Jockers are chatting about sleep, light, and how that plays a crucial role in our mitochondrial health, aging, and longevity. Learn whether we can slow aging and how to understand it as more than just the damaging effects of aging. How can we turn on cellular repair and slow down the rate at which we age? How much autophagy do we want? What is causing our unhealthy behaviors and what is driving our limiting beliefs around healthy aging? The answers to these questions (and more) lie inside this truly absorbing episode of Functional Nutrition that speaks to our innate intelligence to heal ourselves and learn from nature. Please join us. “We’re at a very interesting nexus. And I think how we think about aging and how we think about longevity is really, really important. There’s historical context for longevity and aging and for life itself as a cycle. It’s really important that we explore these things from a foundational principle." - Jason Prall Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio In This Episode: What is longevity?
