Did you know that certain spices, particularly turmeric, have demonstrated the ability to turn off inflammation and positively impact gene expression?

It sounds crazy, but spices are one of our most potent and underrated medicines. 

Which is why in today’s podcast with biochemist, Dr. Bharat Aggarwal, a former professor at University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and expert on cytokines, the role of inflammation in cancer, and the anti-cancer effects of spices and herbs, we take a deep dive into exactly why turmeric and other spices are so powerful. 

And also why most doctors today are not talking about them. 

Here are some of the fascinating highlights from our conversation:

  • Two uses of turmeric for children
  • Why the FDA denied his patent
  • The viruses turmeric can kill
  • The toxic dose of turmeric
  • The truth about turmeric and its bioavailability
  • The only downside to turmeric
  • How turmeric turns off inflammation
  • How to determine how much turmeric you need
  • The difference between curcumin and turmeric
  • How turmeric compares to anti-inflammatory drugs
  • The brain benefits of turmeric
  • Why one of his papers was retracted
  • Other spices and their benefits
  • And so much more!

This week’s podcast, with author and top 50 functional medicine doctor, Dr. Will Cole, is all about INTUITIVE FASTING.

While it may seem counterintuitive, intuitive fasting is a powerful practice that can help you access your intuition and find a fasting rhythm that honors your health and changing circumstances.

It allows you to step into the driver’s seat of your health, and it’s a gentle, gradual approach that begins with simple overnight fasts.

I have been using this practice for years, but never knew quite how to articulate the concept until I read his book.

Dr. Cole is brilliant and I sincerely hope this conversation is as helpful and powerful for you - as it has been for me. 

Here’s what we chat about…

  • Why some people were triggered by his book
  • What intuitive fasting is 
  • How fasting helps us access our intuition
  • The benefits of fasting
  • His favorite fasts for improving metabolic health 
  • The difference between caloric restriction and fasting 
  • An intuitive fasting regimen for beginners
  • Who should not fast
  • How to fast with your cycle 
  • A good time to increase carbs during your cycle
  • Fasting-approved drinks and tea
  • What to drink for cravings during a fast
  • Supplements to use during fasting
  • How to avoid losing muscle while fasting


Enjoy!
