On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. In this episode, Dr. Jack starts with the century-long transition where heart disease wasn’t really a thing to now being the #1 killer in America. 

Next, the slippery slope of lowering cholesterol through statins or other cardiovascular drugs. This usually goes along with a suggestion for a low-fat diet. Then, this can potentially lead to a cycle of invasive testing and prescribing of medications with side effects, then more medications to counteract the side effects but with side effects of their own, and then more medication. All of this happens instead of addressing the primary symptoms in the first place and looking into a sustainable way to address the actual issues at hand and treating the primary illness as opposed to chasing after symptom after symptom after symptom. 

So, what is a truly heart healthy diet? Dr. Jack breaks it down. It begins with eating food the way nature intended, avoiding “food-like” products and processed foods, getting supplements and nutrients from vitamins made from whole foods and made in nature, not in a lab. Plus, Dr. Jack still advises people should speak with their own primary care physician on truly necessary medication and the goal of eventually getting off of the medications because you are healing what is ailing you, not masking symptoms. 

Lastly, Doug joins Dr. Jack for a discussion on the truth about stress, good stresses vs bad stresses, and the types of exercises to help combat stress in our lives.
