In this episode, Dr. Jockers dismantles five common health myths your doctor probably told you—revealing what’s actually backed by science and what’s making you sicker.

 

You’ll learn why sunshine isn’t your enemy, and how it’s actually essential for brain, immune, and hormonal health. Dr. Jockers also dives into why skipping breakfast might boost energy and slow aging—if you do it the right way.
