These 10 Foods are Poisoning You (+Healthy Swaps!)

Dr. Jockers Functional Nutrition

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers goes solo to break down the 10 everyday foods quietly wrecking your metabolism, and exactly what to swap them for. From table salt and seed oils to soy, processed meat, microwaved popcorn, non-organic produce, artificial sweeteners, margarine, canned tomatoes, and modern wheat,

Dr. Jockers explains why each one drives inflammation, blood sugar spikes, and hormone disruption, plus the cleaner alternatives he uses in his own kitchen.

You'll also get three of Dr. Jockers' go-to fat-burning, anti-inflammatory meals, including a wild-caught salmon plate, a grass-fed beef and sweet potato dinner, and a protein-rich yogurt and collagen dessert, so you walk away with a full game plan, not just a list of foods to avoid.
