Episode #163 - Inflammaging: The Role of Inflammation in the Acceleration of Aging

In This Episode:

Beyond mere survival, your body needs to focus on ONE END GOAL. Find out how the stressors in our system respond with inflammation to help us reach it.
Think of inflammation as a fire in your cozy fireplace – then imagine the amount of damage to our overall health when gasoline accelerates it.
Fight the factors that can lead to your body resisting the life-saving hormone insulin – and win the reward of aging successfully.
Why stress spurs on aging and how to recognize pivotal symptoms early before they cause any irreversible damage.
Watch for THESE tell-tale signs that you’re running low in the key nutrients and vitamins needed for successful aging.
Steer clear of these 10 foods and food ingredients that promote inflammation and accelerate the aging process.
Seek out these 7 foods and herbs that activate autophagy, which is essential for cell regeneration and youthfulness.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers talks about aging successfully. In the context of health, several factors can accelerate the aging process and inflammation tops the list. Yet, inflammation is not necessarily a bad thing. It is actually essential for human survival.

It only becomes detrimental to health when there’s constant and consistent exposure to things that trigger inflammation. Listen in to understand what “inflammaging” is all about, why this process occurs and the level of threat it poses to the morbidity and mortality of mankind.

“When we’re following a healthy lifestyle, we have more anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory activity, which allows us to age successfully.”

– Dr. David Jockers
