Dr. Jockers Functional Nutrition

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Jack Wolfson, board-certified cardiologist and founder of Natural Heart Doctor, to challenge everything you think you know about heart disease. You'll discover why the "100-year heart" isn't a myth but a design principle. They unpack how true health is built through eat well, live well, think well — and why testing, not guessing, changes everything.
 
You'll learn why lowering cholesterol or blood pressure with medication isn't the same as addressing root causes. Dr. Wolfson explains the real role of inflammation, oxidative stress, metabolic health, and advanced biomarkers in cardiovascular risk. They also discuss fasting, nutrient-dense ancestral nutrition, and why seafood and organ meats play a powerful role in heart longevity.
 
You'll also explore overlooked drivers of heart disease, including sleep quality, sunlight exposure, mold toxicity, oral health, nervous system alignment, and mental well-being. The conversation reveals how purpose, community, and emotional resilience directly impact cardiovascular outcomes. This episode reframes heart health as a whole-life strategy, not just a lab number.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers explains how certain vegetables can lead to bloating and discomfort, particularly for those with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). He highlights the connection between oral bacteria, low stomach acid, and digestive distress caused by fermentable fibers in vegetables.

Dr. Jockers also offers practical advice on how to reduce bloating by following a low FODMAP diet. He discusses the benefits of carefully reintroducing certain foods to identify your personal tolerance levels and how to restore digestive balance.
