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!

What is the connection between the gut microbiome and Alzheimer's
Disease? Most of us know someone affected by the onset of old age
and perhaps Alzheimer's Disease. So what can we do to prevent
this gradual decline in memory, thinking, behavior, and social
skills from happening to us or those we love?


 


It turns out that we can start by looking at our gut for the
answers. Today's expert is Dr. David Perlmutter, a
board-certified neurologist, and six-time bestselling author.
Understand the relationship between the intestinal barrier and
the blood-brain barrier, as well as the connection between
inflammation, 'leaky gut', and brain health. 


 


As always, there's a lot of good information in this episode
featuring two experts in all things health. From the gut biome to
the ‘viome’, and the difference between good and bad bacteria,
fats, and oils, Dr. Perlmutter brings a proactive urgency to how
we need to take care of our brains by looking after our
guts.

just save, or at the very least radically improve somebody's
life. Thanks for being a part of our community! Let's dive into

"The relationship between the gut (in any way, not just the
microbiome) in any of its functionality to the brain really is
still, I think, pretty much neglected as it relates to the
challenges that we as neurologists face, like Alzheimer's and
MS." ~ Dr. Perlmutter
