In This Episode:

  • Uric acid: what is it and how is it developed? [00:13]
  • Top 9 conditions that you’re at risk with when your uric acid level is high [01:50]
  • Optimal range vs functional range of uric acid levels and how they are  different [06:00]
  • Big things you can learn from the Drop Acid book about fructose and alcohol that was found in Science [07:54]
  • Compare high, moderate, and low purine diet and the best types of oil to use for cooking versus the worst oils you need to avoid using [12:19]

Uric acid is a natural substance that is created when purine is broken down as the body metabolizes. The body produces purine naturally, but it can also come from the food we eat. When there is overconsumption of these foods, uric acid levels escalate.

A build-up of uric acid in the body can lead to serious conditions, particularly impacting cardiovascular health, brain, and metabolic functions. In this episode, Dr. Jockers shares what kind of foods contribute to the rise of uric acid levels and the different strategies that can help keep these levels within the normal range.

“When uric acid is elevated, it drives up reactive oxygen species which turn on the inflammasome, which then amplifies inflammation in the cells and tissues of the body.”

-Dr. David Jockers

Purality Vitamin C

If you’ve tried collagen for aging skin and haven’t gotten the results you want… It’s because most collagen is missing a critical ingredient. And without this “missing link,” collagen WILL NOT WORK. With this “missing link,” you can turn loose, saggy skin –– into tight, glowing, younger-looking skin!

So what is that missing link I am talking about? VITAMIN C.

Of course, you may know Vitamin C as a powerful immune-boosting nutrient…

But did you know Vitamin C is a critical nutrient for anti-aging? You see, Vitamin C is the “glue” that holds collagen together in your body. And if you’re low in Vitamin C, well, all of that collagen you’re taking is pointless.

And here’s the thing, not all Vitamin C supplements are created equal…

If you’re taking Vitamin C in capsule or tablet form, you are missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed (you can thank your stomach acid for that).

However, our friends over at Purality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called ‘MICELLE LIPOSOMAL’ technology which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream – proven to be 800% more efficient!

So, if your skin is looking older than you… And the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sagging skin, and otherwise “old-looking” skin frustrates you…

Give Purality Health’s Micelle Liposomal Vitamin C a try! It’s backed by a 180-day money-back guarantee. And today, we have a 30% OFF coupon for you! Just visit puralityhealth.com and use the coupon DRJ to access 30% OFF your purchase today!
