How can you get into intermittent fasting as a strategy to deal with inflammation in your body? Dr. Jockers is being interviewed by his friend Dr. Eric Osansky today in another fascinating deep dive into how we can use fasting to reset our gut microbiome. 

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. 

In this episode he also asks me a lot about Dr. Jockers’ personal story, the health challenges that he experienced earlier in his life, and how he overcame them. 

It’s always a pleasure hearing Dr. Jockers share his fasting strategies and helping a new audience understand how beneficial autophagy and mitophagy can be as we create stress-resilient mitochondria and thrive as we age. This episode also focuses on fasting as it relates to hypothyroidism. 

Please join us and please give us a five star review if you find this episode to be of value. Thank you!

 

“The more that we can create that healthy, balanced, diverse microbiome, the better. And intermittent fasting is one of the core strategies to help optimize the diversity of the microbiome.”
