Episode #132 – The Truth About Salt and Mineral Deficiencies with Dr. James DiNicolantonio

In This Episode:

• Salt’s secret ingredient that can help you rebound from the ‘keto flu’ and other natural responses of a low-carb diet.
• What to seek in high-quality salt and where to find the ‘good stuff.’
• How to run a quick test to see if you have enough key minerals in your body for optimal health — or not.
• The second vital ingredient in salt that can halt the development of painful kidney stones.
• The BIGGEST mistake people make with their salt intake and the pervasive problems that arise from focusing on the salt, not the powerful minerals within.
• The third ingredient in salt that boosts brain development and lowers the risk of an intellectual disability BEFORE it begins.

Dr. James DiNicolantonio joins Dr. Jockers in today’s episode to share his research and discoveries about one of the most basic seasonings in the world – salt! We’ve been taught a lot of things that are WRONG about salts and other minerals but it’s time to break free from this misinformation.

Learn how to make the most of these minerals so we can stop depriving ourselves of the benefits they offer. 

“If you don’t listen to your salt cravings, you’re putting yourself in serious trouble.”

– Dr. James DiNicolantonio

Paleovalley Bone Broth

When it comes to gut health, bone broth is one of my go-to items I add to my diet. But not all collagen is created equal. Many brands use poor-quality bones and heating methods that remove all of the potent benefits of collagen.

And that is why I choose to use Paleovalley Bone Broth Protein Powder, you can get all the gut healing benefits without the mess from a company that uses only 100% grass-fed and finished cows and is not processed with high heat or extracted with harmful chemicals.

There are no fillers, flow agents or added flavors. There is only ONE ingredient in this product and it’s bovine bone broth protein. That’s it. Hurry and grab yours from Paleovalley.com/jockers to save 15% off today!

LMNT

Today’s episode is also sponsored by LMNT, my go-to electrolyte drink mix that I recommend to anyone who wants to stay hydrated.  Everyone needs electrolytes to function and when you sweat, adopt a low-carb diet, or practice intermittent fasting, your electrolyte needs increase.

If electrolytes aren’t replaced, it’s common to experience headaches, muscle cramps, and fatigue. LMNT replaces these essential electrolytes with NO sugar, NO coloring, NO artificial ingredients, or any other junk.

And it tastes absolutely delicious! I really love all of their flavors, but my favorite is raspberry. As a member of our community, you can claim a free LMNT Sample Pack with any LMNT purchase you make.  This is a great opportunity to try all the flavors for free.
