  • Using Fasting Strategies to Reduce Inflammaging and Longevity with Dr. Joseph Antoun

    In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Joseph Antoun to unpack how fasting strategies, including fasting-mimicking diets, can rejuvenate immune cells, slow down inflammaging, and support overall healthy aging.

    You'll discover how chronic inflammation accelerates aging, why old "zombie" cells cause damage, and how fasting helps clear them out while replacing them with stronger, more resilient ones. The conversation also dives into immunosenescence, what happens when immune cells age, and how this process links to conditions like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and autoimmune disorders.

    Dr. Antoun also explains the delicate balance between growth and repair in the body—and why our modern eating patterns keep us stuck in constant growth mode. By leveraging targeted fasting protocols, we can push our bodies toward autophagy, boost cell repair, and open the door to a healthier, longer life.

  • 5 Healthy Foods that Inflame Your Body and Increase Body Fat

    In this episode, Dr. Jockers reveals the five "healthy" foods that may be doing more harm than good. You'll learn how smoothies, often thought of as a nutritious choice, can be loaded with sugar and processed ingredients that trigger inflammation.

    You'll also discover how granola, which many believe is a health food, can actually spike blood sugar and increase body fat. Dr. Jockers dives deep into the hidden dangers lurking in foods marketed as healthy options.

    Finally, you'll hear why many salad dressings contain harmful oils and sugar additives, turning a simple salad into an inflammation-inducing meal. Listen in to find out how to make these foods work for you instead of against you.
