Still cooking with seed oils? That could be fueling inflammation. I’ve switched to Paleovalley’s 100% grass-fed beef tallow—it’s rich in CLA, packed with flavor, and stable at high heat. It’s one of the cleanest, most nutrient-dense fats you can cook with. Head to paleovalley.com/jockers and use code JOCKERS for 15% off your order.

Heartburn doesn’t mean you have too much stomach acid—it usually means you don’t have enough. That’s why I recommend Just Thrive’s Digestive Bitters. They help ignite stomach acid, enzymes, and bile so you can finally break down food the way you’re supposed to. Go to justthrivehealth.com and use code JOCKERS to save 20%.

"When toxins build up, they trigger chronic inflammation that affects everything from your skin to your brain."
