Description

As a society, we're aging beyond our years. Our "immune age" has surpassed our chronological age and life expectancy has gone down, making it more important than ever to prioritize the health of your immune system. In this information-packed episode, world-renowned nutritional medicine expert and founder of both the Institute for Functional Medicine and Big Bold Health, Dr. Jeff Bland, joins JJ to discuss the steps you can take to move the needle on your immune health. Bland shares what we learned about immune health during the pandemic and how we can apply it to the future. You'll learn about the biggest factors driving our immunological age, how immune health and metabolic health are closely linked, how both our internal and external environments are contributing to more common autoimmune diseases, and the impact that trauma can have on immune function. Plus, you'll be introduced to a new nutritional powerhouse that offers incredible immune support—Himalayan tartary buckwheat.
