Working indoors, taking medications, eating processed food and sitting constantly is leading to our own chronic dehydration. Low-grade dehydration leads to fatigue and brain fog. It also contributes to chronic illness and autoimmune disease. Drinking water all day long won’t hydrate you properly. Structured or gel water as available in fruits and vegetables will hydrate you. Consume mineral water, eat your greens, enjoy smoothies and get some sunlight. Consider adding chia seeds to your meals. Listen as Dr. Dana Cohen joins Dr. Mike Smith to share how to improve your hydration.

Are you eating an AGEless diet? There are compounds in some food groups that can negatively affect your health. Cooking can bring some of these compounds to the surface. AGEs (advanced glycation end products) are common compounds that form inside your body and the food you consume. These compounds form when sugar bonds with proteins or lipids without enzymatic regulation. The proteins and fats in the body don’t behave properly when AGEs are formed. AGEs impact chronic illness. Reducing the intake of these compounds may improve and preserve health. Listen as Dr. Helen Vlassara joins Dr. Mike Smith to discuss how AGEs alter the body and how to navigate them.

Non-optimal but “normal” thyroid levels can still lead to hormonal symptoms. Listen as Dr. Pamela Wartian Smith joins Dr. Mike Smith to share which thyroid panels provide best diagnosis, as well as optimal hormone levels to spot on test results.

Listen as Dr. Fred Pescatore joins Dr. Mike Smith to discuss amino acids and how to get the most out of your meals.For more information about the A-list diet, visit www.alistdietbook.com.
