Why Fasting Protects the Brain From Inflammation and Aging

Brain health is not just about one supplement or one superfood, it is about the patterns that drive inflammation over time. In this video, Dr. David Jockers explains why he starts with food when thinking about memory and focus, and how chronic inflammation relates to long term brain changes.

You will hear his go to “brain meal” and why each part makes the cut, from wild caught sockeye salmon for omega 3s to pasture raised eggs for choline and other key nutrients. He also breaks down the role of extra virgin olive oil, what “high polyphenol” means in practical terms, and how leafy greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, berries, pomegranate, and even walnuts can round out the plate. He finishes with simple add ons like lemon, vinegar, and Mediterranean herbs, plus why smell and taste matter more than people think for supporting the brain.”
