In this episode, Dr. Jockers joins Dr. Michael Karlfeldt to explore how metabolic flexibility can reduce cancer risk and support healing. They discuss the importance of helping your body switch between burning glucose and fat for better health.
You’ll hear how fasting and time-restricted eating trigger autophagy, allowing the body to repair damaged cells. Lowering insulin levels plays a key role in activating this deep healing process.
Dr. Jockers and Dr. Karlfeldt also explain how reducing insulin and growth signals like mTOR helps prevent uncontrolled cell growth. By using nutrition and fasting, they reveal how to create a healing environment that weakens cancer cells.

0:26.2 | because your body's not good at switching fuel source. It needs a continual supply of glucose. |
0:31.0 | And when glucose starts to lower, you get cravings because your body can't switch into burning |
0:35.1 | fat for fuel. So fasting seems like torture because you're like, oh my gosh, if I go more than three, four |
0:40.1 | hours without a meal, I mean, I get really hangary, right? |
0:42.8 | I just don't feel good. |

1:30.2 | Did you know one of the best ways to reduce uncomfortable swelling in your legs or ankles and to flush out excess fluid or fats is by unclogging your lymphatic system? |
1:36.4 | Over time, your lymphatic system can become clogged due to injuries or bacterial invasions. |
1:42.8 | This can lead to chronic swelling in the arms, legs, or ankles. |
