Most of us already know how important it is to eat healthy, exercise regularly and choose a lifestyle that supports “quality” of life.
How often do you stop to consider just how important it is to eat well and exercise regularly for your brain health? When brain health is not optimal, everything else becomes compromised.
Dr. Jockers is a doctor of natural medicine, functional nutritionist and corrective chiropractor. He is the founder of Exodus heal and the author of The Fasting Transformation – Burn Fat, Heal Your Body & Transform Your Life and Keto Metabolic Breakthrough.
In this episode Dr. Jockers discusses the importance of feeding our brain for optimized health and function. He talks about how ketosis and fasting can play a supporting role in this and that you don’t have to go to dietary extremes to get the benefits.
“Sugar is a dirty fuel source… however when we burn ketones or fat for fuel, we actually produce significantly more energy than when we burn sugar.” -Dr. David Jockers
