Are your joints painful? Do you suffer from daily discomfort? As it stands today, chronic pain affects more Americans than DIABETES, HEART DISEASE, and CANCER combined.

 

In fact, chronic pain is THE NUMBER ONE reason Americans access the Healthcare system today. However, many people believe their only option for pain relief is found in drugstore options such as Ibuprofen, Advil, and Tylenol (to name a few). Tragically, most people are unaware that these pain meds do more HARM than good. 

 

Common side effects include Headaches, Liver and Kidney issues, High Blood Pressure, and in rare cases – even death. Not to mention, they are just masking your pain... Giving you temporary relief...

 

While this may sound all doom and gloom, I do have good news... There is an all-natural solution that addresses the root cause of your discomfort... A REAL solution that allows you to get back to being YOU!

 

And that solution is called Curcumin Gold made by my friends at Purality Health. Curcumin Gold contains Turmeric Curcumin Extract, Vegan Omega-3s, & Ginger Oil. These carefully selected ingredients support healthy joint function and address the root cause of inflammation within your body. Trust me when I say you won't find anything else on the market quite like this. In fact, my friends over at Purality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called ‘MICELLE LIPOSOMAL’ technology which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream – proven to be 800% more efficient!

 

Even better, it's backed by a 180-day money-back guarantee. And today, we have a 30% OFF coupon for you! Visit puralityhealth.com and use the coupon "DRJ" to access 30% OFF today!

 

 

Dr. Michael Ruscio is a Digestion, Thyroid, and Functional Health Doctor, and the author of 'Healthy Gut, Healthy You'. He is also a welcome returning guest to the Functional Nutrition Podcast. Today with Dr. Jockers, Dr. Ruscio is talking about probiotics and how they can help with leaky gut and inflammation.

 

What are some of the common misconceptions when it comes to probiotics? Do they need to be refrigerated? Do they need to be 'alive'? Are all probiotics the same? How should we go about categorizing them and knowing which ones are better for our gut mitochondria? 

 

Our understanding of probiotics has increased greatly in recent years and it's no longer just a case of swallowing whatever you have in the fridge and seeing if it works. Dr. Ruscio has a fantastic strategy for how to use probiotics effectively so as to get the best anti-inflammatory results. 

 

As always, we are confident that you will get a great deal of benefit from this episode. Please take a moment to share it with someone who is perhaps struggling with inflammation and eager to learn more about how to use probiotics for better gut health! Thanks, and let's dive into the show!

 

"One of the most underappreciated aspects of probiotics (well, there are multiple mechanisms, but one of the most underappreciated) is that probiotics are actually fairly potent anti-microbials."
- Dr. Michael Ruscio
