There's also an in-depth article that accompanies this episode that you can find in the link below. Join Dr. Jockers as he looks at all the evidence and clinical studies done on stevia and presents a well-informed opinion. Please join us.

I'm a big fan of using C60 in conjunction with your keto and intermittent fasting lifestyle to support your immune system, help your body detox, and increase energy and mental clarity.

Healthy blood sugar levels are extremely critical if you want to have great mental clarity, a healthy mood, and all-day energy. If you want to be a good fat burner, you've got to keep your blood sugar stable and you've got to keep your insulin levels balanced.

Research shows that if you take one to two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar with a meal, it lowers the glycemic impact of the meal (the blood sugar elevation) by up to 40% and it lowers the amount of insulin your body produces. This means you feel better as you have more energy after your meal and you can burn fat more effectively.

Paleovalley's Apple Cider Vinegar Complex is a great way to take apple cider vinegar without the nasty vinegar taste in your mouth. It has the recommended dosage of 1000mgs of ACV and added turmeric, ginger, lemon, and cinnamon – all enhancing digestive juice production so you can digest your meal more effectively and bring down inflammation in your body.

Enjoy Paleovalley's Apple Cider Vinegar Complex when you visit paleovalley.com/jockers and say hello to increased energy and stable blood sugar
