"If you’re looking for a way to boost focus, memory, and mental clarity, mushrooms might be exactly what you’re looking for. Certain mushrooms contain a medicinal quality called beta-glucans. A 2012 review on products containing beta-glucans found they can help to naturally increase energy, reduce confusion, boost mood, improve recall and memory, and increase vigor. My go-to mushroom blend is Paleovalley NeuroEffect. It contains a potent blend of 8 whole mushrooms, without any grains or fillers like most products, and happily touts a beta-glucan level of at least 26%. PLUS, they’ve included organic coffee fruit extract that gives you the brain-boosting effects of coffee – without the jitters or crashes you get with caffeine.

But do you know that inactivity can do that too, and more? Yes, fasting or refraining from consuming anything for a couple of hours and even days can offer the same benefits. Dr. Jockers shares all the details in today’s episode including the stimulants of autophagy and its role in cell repair.  If you’re trying to lose weight, learn the effective way you can lose all those fats and how to turn them into muscles.    “Both exercise and fasting stimulate autophagy and mitochondria.
