Many brands use poor-quality bones and heating methods that remove all of the potent benefits of collagen. And that is why I choose to use Paleovalley Bone Broth Protein Powder, you can get all the gut healing benefits without the mess from a company that uses only 100% grass-fed and finished cows and is not processed with high heat or extracted with harmful chemicals. There are no fillers, flow agents or added flavors. There is only ONE ingredient in this product and it's bovine bone broth protein. That's it.

Are hidden toxins and stressors making you feel run down and tired? Are you worried about oxidative stress from exposure to EMF, 5G, heavy metals, chemicals, and processed foods? Toxic is the new normal in our modern world. Toxins in our body take on the role of free radicals, causing oxidative damage on a cellular level that can lead to premature aging and a lower quality of life. One of the most powerful antioxidants known to man is glutathione. It fights free radicals while repairing DNA. However, not all glutathione supplements are created equal. If you’re taking it in capsule or tablet form, you’re missing out on key nutrients that will pass through your body without being absorbed.    Purality Health has a patented formula that utilizes Micelle Liposomal technology which delivers the glutathione nutrients into your bloodstream, which has been proven to be 800% more efficient.

Do you find yourself stress eating or drinking at the end of the day to relax? Have you heard about using amino acids and low-dose lithium to alleviate your suffering? Trudy Scott is a ‘mood food’ expert and author of ‘The Anti-Anxiety Food Solution’.   She’s chatting with Dr. Jockers today, bringing her wealth of knowledge and clinical experience in giving people a place to start with their anxiety. Together they’re looking at the two different types of neurotransmitter imbalances that are common in people with anxiety and panic attacks — and how to differentiate between the two. These are GABA types and serotonin.    This episode is a truly fascinating insight into our different biochemical imbalances, how birth control impacts your anxiety, as does gluten intolerance, and high cortisol… then how to address our anxiety through natural solutions. The advice is relatable and Tracy’s work is making a huge impact on people’s lives.
