    The Dangers of Hidden Toxicity with Dr. Jill Carnahan Apr 10, 2019
    Show notes

    Functional medicine expert Dr. Jill Carnahan joins JJ in today's podcast episode to reveal how a high toxic burden could be preventing you from losing weight and harming your health!

    Get Dr. Jill Carnahan’s free Tips to Reduce Your Toxic Load by going to JJVirgin.com/drjill.

    Main Points From Today’s Episode

    1. An accumulation of toxins can overload your body's ability to get rid of toxins in a timely manner. That high toxic load plays a role in many chronic issues, including weight gain, cancer, neurodegenerative conditions, and autoimmune disease.
    2. The principle behind fat-soluble toxins triggering weight gain is: dilution is the solution to pollution. That means if your body is toxic, it will naturally try to dilute that toxic load by creating more fat cells to diminish the toxic effect.
    3. When it comes to reducing your toxic load, Dr. Carnahan has a simple, yet effective strategy regarding intake: clean air, clean water, and clean food. 80% of our toxic load is from the air supply, which is why it’s important to get air filters in your home and workplace.

    How to Maintain a Strong Immune System with JJ Virgin Mar 16, 2019
    Show notes

    A strong immune system is key to staying healthy! In this episode, JJ shares her top immune-boosting tips so you can fight off those pesky cold and flu germs and maintain your energy levels. Listen as JJ explains how optimizing your vitamin D levels and lowering your sugar impact can help strengthen your immune system, as well as why reducing stress and getting plenty of sleep is crucial to defending against infection. JJ also reveals the foods and supplements you should be including in your routine to improve your immune function, plus how the wrong kind of exercise can wreak havoc on your immune health. Find out how to protect yourself from illness so you can feel your very best!

    Main Points From Today’s Episode

    1. Optimizing your vitamin D levels is key to a strong immune system. It’s no coincidence that rates of illness rise during the winter, when many people struggle to get the sun exposure they need to make adequate vitamin D.
    2. Lowering your sugar impact is crucial to staying healthy. That’s because sugar competes with vitamin C to enter your cells, which can lower your immunity.
    3. Your gut microbiome plays a major role in your immune function. A great way to strengthen your gut microbiome is to include plenty of fiber in your diet.
