Are you concerned about how aging might impact your brain health or immune system? Have you ever wondered how your gut health plays a role in neurodegeneration? If so, this episode of the Dr. Jockers Functional Nutrition Podcast is a must-listen. Dr. Peter Kan, a leading expert in functional medicine, joins us to delve into the fascinating connection between the brain, immune system, and gut, and how this triad influences aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
In this episode, we explore the concept of "inflammaging," the role of mitochondria in maintaining brain health, and practical strategies you can implement to support your brain-immune-gut axis for optimal health and longevity. Discover actionable insights that will help you tackle inflammation, improve cognitive function, and maintain a healthy immune system as you age.

Have you heard of Paleovalley's amazing Turmeric Complex? It contains whole food and organic turmeric instead of just isolated curcumin.
And we know that organic turmeric is way better, and one of the best things you can take to shut down inflammation in the body and support healthy blood flow and blood pressure.
It also includes coconut oil and black pepper as its ingredients, which has been shown to improve the absorption of turmeric by 2000%! Plus, there's also organic ginger, rosemary, and cloves which synergize with the turmeric to help improve digestion and blood sugar.
Paleovalley's Turmeric Complex also supports joint health, mental clarity, and improved brain function. You've just got to try this product. Visit paleovalley.com/jockers!
