MSG or monosodium glutamate, right? This is something we want to avoid.

Hello and welcome to the Dr. Jocker's functional nutrition podcast, the show designed to give you science-based solutions to improve your health and life.

I'm Dr. David Jockers, Doctor of Natural Medicine, and creator of Dr.jockers.com, and I'm the host of this podcast.

I'm here to tell you that your body was created to heal itself.

And on this show, we focus on

strategies you can apply today to heal and function at your best. Thanks for spending time with me,

and let's go into the show. This podcast is sponsored by my friends over at shopc60.com.

If you haven't heard of carbon 60 or otherwise called

C60 before, it is a powerful Nobel Prize winning antioxidant that helps to optimize mitochondrial

function, fights inflammation, and neutralizes toxic free radicals. I'm a huge fan of using C-60 in conjunction with a healthy

lifestyle to support your immune system, help your body detox, and increase energy and

mental clarity. If you are over the age of 40 and you'd like to kick fatigue and brain fog to

the curb this year, visit shopc60.com and use the coupon code, jocers, for 15% off your first

order and start taking back control over your health today. The products I use, I use their

C60 in organic MCT coconut oil. They have it in various different flavors. They also have sugar-free

gummies that are made with alulose and monk fruit.

They also have carbon 60 in organic avocado and extra virgin olive oil.

When it's combined with these fats, it absorbs more effectively.

And carbon 60 is great as a natural energizing tool because it really helps your mitochondria optimize your energy

production. Now, if you take it late at night for some individuals, it may seem a little bit stimulating.

So that's why we recommend taking it earlier in the day. And it will give you that great energy,

that great mental clarity that you want all day long.
