Unless you had so much uric acid in your body that you developed gout, doctors have largely ignored this common biomarker. But according to Dr. Perlmutter, new research is showing a strong link between elevated uric acid and chronic diseases such as diabetes, Alzheimer's, and cardiovascular disease. Today’s show goes into depth about the evolutionary origins of our obesity epidemic, the importance of a low-sugar diet, and how tracking your own uric acids levels can be an important metric for your health.

On December 14, 2012, Scarlett Lewis’ 6-year-old son Jesse was killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School. In her grief, she stumbled on a note he had written in chalk shortly before his death: “nurturing, healing, and love.” These three words left behind by her son became fuel for her life’s work, the Choose Love Movement. In today’s show, Jeff and Scarlett discuss how grief transforms us, and how healing is possible through practicing forgiveness. Scarlett also shares how we can teach compassion and other essential skills in schools to help prevent future attacks from troubled kids. Learn more about the Choose Love Movement at chooselovemovement.org. Learn more about Commune at onecommune.com and connect with us on Instagram at @onecommune and @jeffkrasno.
