Why Metabolic Flexibility Is Key to Healing
One of the major concepts discussed is metabolic flexibility — the ability of the body to switch between burning glucose and fat for fuel. This process not only improves overall health but plays a crucial role in cancer prevention.
Dr. Jockers shares how our modern lifestyle, filled with processed foods and irregular eating patterns, keeps us stuck in sugar-burning mode, making it harder for our bodies to heal.
How Fasting Triggers Deep Cellular Repair
Dr. Jockers and Dr. Karlfeldt dive deep into the benefits of fasting and time-restricted eating. These strategies help lower insulin levels, which in turn triggers autophagy — the body’s natural way of clearing out damaged cells and making room for new, healthy ones. Fasting isn’t just about reducing calories; it’s about giving your body the space to heal itself from the inside out.
Reduce Growth Signals to Weaken Cancer Cells
One of the most eye-opening parts of the episode is the discussion on reducing growth signals like insulin and mTOR, which are often elevated by poor diet and frequent eating. Dr. Jockers explains how targeting these pathways can prevent the uncontrolled cell growth that leads to cancer, offering a powerful tool for both prevention and healing.
