In This Episode:
In this podcast episode, I go over the best higher carb foods you can eat that reduce inflammation. One caveat is if you are a diabetic, have obesity and metabolic syndrome then I recommend going on a very low carb, ketogenic style diet for a period of time to get metabolically health.
Inflammation is a major contributor to many health issues, but did you know that certain high-carb foods can actually help fight it? In this latest episode of Dr. Jockers’ Functional Nutrition Podcast, Dr. David Jockers reveals the power of specific foods that can help reduce inflammation and improve your overall health.
The Inflammation-Fighting Power of Berries
Berries aren’t just delicious—they’re packed with polyphenols that support a healthy gut microbiome and help reduce oxidative stress.
Dr. Jockers breaks down why adding more of these nutrient-rich fruits to your diet can be a game-changer for managing inflammation.
Hydrating Fruits: More Than Just Water

Tune in to learn how fruits like watermelon and citrus provide structured water, offering deep hydration that supports your body’s natural processes and reduces inflammation.
Astringent Fruits and Fermented Drinks to Boost Your Health
Discover how astringent fruits like pomegranates and cranberries, loaded with oleic acid and quercetin, support liver detoxification and strengthen your gut lining. Plus, Dr. Jockers highlights the incredible benefits of fermented drinks like coconut kefir, packed with probiotics that combat inflammation and boost gut health.
