Unique Solutions for Seasonal Affective Disorder

Author: Dr. Jockers December 22, 2022 Duration: 24:39

This episode is brought to you by Pique, where plants and science intersect to produce teas and supplements of unrivaled efficacy, purity, and convenience. Pique teas are blended with other functional plants specifically designed to support metabolism, gut health, digestion, and shut down appetite…all while helping to ease bloat and curb sugar cravings. If you practice intermittent fasting, drinking these award-winning flavors will not break your fast! I enjoy Pique teas even when not fasting, so I use different flavors for different benefits throughout my day. Pique's revolutionary Tea Crystals—made with cold extraction technology—are organic, vegan, non-GMO, sugar-free, free of preservatives or additives, and triple toxin screened for purity. What's more, these pure teas dissolve in hot or cold water, so no prep or brewing is required.

Anyone looking to ignite their fat-burning metabolism, boost their energy, and transform how they look and feel must start taking care of their liver. Your liver is your body's master detoxifier. It performs over 500 key functions in your body every single day. After decades of wear and tear, our livers slow down and become sluggish. Fortunately, there's a simple, all-natural solution that I recommend. It's called Liver Health Formula.


Liver Health Formula contains 12 potent botanicals clinically proven to recharge and protect your liver at the cellular level. It helps restore your liver's detoxifying abilities. Try Liver Health Formula completely risk-free, and receive 5 FREE gifts when you order today. Just go to GetLiverHelp.com/Jockers to claim your risk-free supply of Liver Health Formula and all 5 bonus gifts.

 

Are you SAD? As in, do you suffer from Seasonal Affect Disorder? What are the symptoms and what are the solutions? Getting down in the winter time when there's less sunshine and more inclination to sleep in and eat carbs during the day needn't be a way of life for you during this challenging time.

 

Dr. Jockers is here with some handy charts and information on ways to combat Seasonal Affect Disorder as we adjust and improve our lifestyle through smart, practical choices that allow us to sleep, eat, and move better over winter time. 

 

It's not rocket science — and it needn't be therapy or prescription medication that you turn to if you are feeling SAD at this time. Please try out some of the techniques mentioned — from laughing and expressing gratitude to Omega 3 supplements and red light therapy — and stick on the winning path of self-improvement this winter!

 

"If the sun is out, try to get at least 10 to 15 minutes of good quality sun exposure."

-Dr. David Jockers
