Dr. David Jockers – Eat These Foods & Your Almost Guaranteed To Develop Brain & Mental Issues – Learn How To Supercharge Your Brain Health & Mental Function!

In this episode of Extreme Health Radio, hosts Justin and Kate welcome Dr. David Jockers, a functional medicine expert and corrective care chiropractor, to discuss strategies for optimizing brain health and preventing neurological decline. Dr. Jockers emphasizes that cancer and other chronic diseases often develop silently over 8 to 15 years before detection, underscoring the importance of proactive, functional health approaches. He advocates for a ketogenic diet, gut health optimization, and avoiding grains—especially gluten—due to their link with leaky gut, inflammation, and neurological disorders like depression and dementia. The conversation delves into neurobics—non-routine mental exercises like writing with the non-dominant hand or cross-crawl movements—to stimulate brain plasticity and boost BDNF, a key factor in preventing cognitive decline. Dr. Jockers also discusses the dangers of electromagnetic radiation from cell phones, recommending grounding techniques and speakerphone use to reduce exposure. Practical tools like saunas for detoxification, intermittent fasting, and targeted supplements such as omega-3s, probiotics, and nootropics are highlighted as foundational to long-term brain function and vitality. The episode concludes with a strong call to embrace lifelong learning and active brain engagement to achieve peak mental performance and longevity.
