5 "Healthy" Foods You Should Avoid

5 "Healthy" Foods You Should Avoid

Author: Dr. Jockers December 28, 2023 Duration: 27:24

Before Dr. Jockers got into natural health, he used to think that these 5 foods were healthy and he used to eat a lot of them. In fact, they contained a lot of hidden processed sugars, chemicals, and seed oils that drive up inflammation!

 

Learn about how much sugar there is in a smoothie and why it's so harmful for your body to consume so much processed sugar. Why is organic Greek yogurt Dr. Jockers's preferred yogurt and why should you read the labels on your favorite protein bar before your next workout?

 

Do you really know what goes into a salad dressing at a restaurant? The concentrated seed oils in a lot of salad dressings are highly damaging for our bodies. So we really need to watch out for these cheap, damaged fats and oils! 

 

Dr. Jockers's actual healthy alternatives are clearly outlined in this awesome and inspiring episode!

"The average smoothie (if you go into any sort of store or any sort of smoothie place), you're getting a smoothie that is full of sugar, oftentimes very little protein, very little fat. Certainly not enough healthy protein and healthy fat to help balance your blood sugar.."

Dr. Jockers.
