In this episode, Dr. David Jockers sits down with Annette Reeder, known as the Biblical Nutritionist, for a conversation about where biblical wisdom meets modern nutritional science and what Scripture actually says about the foods that heal.
You will learn the three timeless biblical principles that simplify every food decision you make, and the science behind the foods of Scripture, including fresh-pressed extra virgin olive oil and its polyphenols, freshly milled grain and blood sugar balance, pomegranate and urolithin A, dates as a whole food snack, and barley and its beta-glucans.
Dr. Jockers and Annette also cover how to shop the grocery store with a completely different mindset, how to eat well on a real budget without a scarcity mentality, and how renewing your mind changes not only what lands on your plate but your sleep, stress, and daily habits as well.

Nearly every benefit of turmeric comes from how powerfully it supports a healthy inflammatory response, which is why Paleovalley's Turmeric Complex uses whole food organic turmeric rather than isolated curcumin, along with nearly 300 other beneficial compounds. They add coconut oil and black pepper to boost absorption by up to 2,000%, plus organic ginger, rosemary, and cloves for brain, immune, digestive, and blood sugar support.
