If you've tried collagen for aging skin and haven't gotten the results you want... It's because most collagen is missing a critical ingredient. And without this "missing link," collagen WILL NOT WORK. With this "missing link" you can turn loose, saggy skin –– into tight, glowing, younger-looking skin! So what is that missing link I am talking about? VITAMIN C. Of course, you may know Vitamin C as a powerful immune-boosting nutrient... But did you know Vitamin C is a critical nutrient for anti-aging? You see, Vitamin C it's the "glue" that holds collagen together in your body. And if you're low in Vitamin C, well all of that collagen you're taking is pointless. And here's the thing, not all Vitamin C supplements are created equal… If you're taking Vitamin C in capsule or tablet form, you are missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed (you can thank your stomach acid for that). However, our friends over at Purality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called 'MICELLE LIPOSOMAL' technology which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream – proven to be 800% more efficient! So, if your skin is looking older than you... And the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sagging skin, and otherwise "old-looking" skin frustrates you… Give Purality Health's Micelle Liposomal Vitamin C a try! It's backed by a 180-day money-back guarantee. And today, we have a 30% OFF coupon for you! Just visit puralityhealth.com and use the coupon DRJ to access 30% OFF your purchase today!

NeuroEffect is an organic blend of 8 different mushrooms that will fuel your brain for all-day concentration, clarity, and enhanced brain function. I'm a huge fan of medicinal mushrooms – I take them daily to support my immune system and my brain health. But did you know that virtually every mushroom product on the market isn't actually the mushroom? It's the mycelium that they grow on grain. This means they barely contain any of the medicinal compounds that mushrooms have to offer and instead contain up to 50% starch! The grain can cause gut irritation and can interfere with the absorption of the little mushrooms they do have in it. Paleovalley's NeuroEffect only uses whole mushrooms that are cultivated naturally and organically. They are then tested not once, but twice for quality, guaranteeing you get 2,100 mg of our neuro-supportive REAL mushrooms that have more than 26% beta-glucans ( the medicinal elements of a mushroom) in every serving, without the grains. Paleovalley has added an organic whole coffee fruit that has been shown in clinical trials to stimulate the production of a protein vital for focus, memory, and clarity. Which means no caffeine jitters, or feeling like you need an afternoon cup of coffee.

Dr. Michelle Sands (a renowned naturopath, doctor of natural medicine, and anti-aging expert) is in conversation with Dr. Jockers today, and they're discussing ways to optimize hormone and gut health during menopause. They're talking about what menopause is, perimenopause too, and the range of symptoms women experience during this time in their life, from hot flashes and low libido to weight gain and headaches. The link between gut health and menopause is an important one for women wanting to age well. Getting good sleep and dealing with stress better are all related to our gut. The question of hormone replacement also comes up in this in insightful episode of Functional Nutrition. Please join us! "Hormones are so much the chemical messengers of our body. So they're involved in pretty much every aspect of our life, from everything we eat, everything we think about, to how we sleep, the environment we interact with. That all interacts with our hormones. So they're very sensitive." ~ Dr. Michelle Sands Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio In This Episode: 03:50 Introduction to Dr. Michelle Sands 05:33 What are the symptoms of menopause? 06:50 What happens to a woman as she goes into menopause and perimenopause? 10:20 Understanding the role progesterone plays during menopause 13:37 How do these hormones impact the gut microbiome? 16:00 Appreciating the new technology we have available for hormone replacement therapy 16:29 What impact do progesterone and estrogen have on our guts? 20:20 What role does the marker beta-glucuronidase play in estrogen metabolism? 21:45 How does progesterone impact our gut? 24:00 What can we do to create balance with our hormones? 25:55 Taking time to chew our food really well 26:55 Where can we get good fiber from? 28:00 The importance of quality sleep for our digestion 32:20 Healthy ways of detoxifying to get rid of harmful hormones 34:00 What can a 'dutch test' tell us? 36:55 Understanding hormone replacement therapy 37:35 What's the difference between bio-identical hormone replacement therapy and conventional hormone replacement therapy? 39:00 Why is topical application more effective? 42:00 The importance of working with someone who understands the body holistically 42:40 Dr. Sands' Free Hormone Regulation Masterclass 43:30 Key strategies for increasing your testosterone levels 45:10 The benefits of magnesium 46:40 Final words of inspiration from Dr. Sands Resources: PUREDOSE® Micelle Liposomal Glutathione - Use Coupon Code DRJ for 30% off Paleovalley NeuroEffect - Use code 'JOCKERS' to get 15% off at checkout Claim your risk-free supply of Liver Health Formula and all 5 bonus gifts – GetLiverHelp.com/Jockers Dr. Sands' Free Hormone Regulation Masterclass - https://www.glownaturalwellness.com/fixhormones/ Connect with Dr. Sands: Website - https://www.glownaturalwellness.com/ Connect with Dr. Jockers: Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/drjockers/ Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/DrDavidJockers YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/user/djockers Website – https://drjockers.com/ If you are interested in being a guest on the show, we would love to hear from you!
