People tend to think I’m against calcium, I’m not. 
What I am against  is what stands in direct attack of what I am for. 
Which is misinformation that leads to dysfunction, disorder or discomfort or "dis ease".

A reader on an Instagram post of mine asked ;  

“We always hear from holistic therapists that calcium supplements are considered harmful. So are mineral supplements (because of Ca in them) considered harmful as well?”

First, let me say why I tend to warn about calcium being a problem. We are living in a calcified world. 
Magnesium controls electrical cell-to-cell communication allowing the correct amount of calcium to enter a cell to create cell contraction. 

This may be one of the hardest tasks for magnesium because the level...

My friend Erik Levi invited me back onto his podcast for another chat about minerals. We just let the conversation flow and touch on some pretty common challenges for the average person.

Or listen to this episode HERE.

In this episode, I'm chatting with Christa Bevan, host of the Radical Mother Village podcast.   After multiple encounters with burnout, I knew  there had to be more and needed to find a way to start living the vibrant life I knew was possible.  Through nutritional therapy, mineral balancing, emotional freedom and transformation coaching, I began to create a life I loved and my health turned around completely.

Magnesium the miracle mineral could only possible have good intentions and affects, right? While magnesium is an imperative mineral good for human health, sometimes the body is not quite ready to receive it in the way we give it.

In this episode, I dig into what you need to consider if you've tried magnesium and it made you feel worse instead of better. Trust me, you're gonna love this episode. Buckle up because this episode is fueled by my firey side (and lots of LOVE)!

 
So many people come to the mineral banquet and just assume they can dive right in to their hearts content (metaphorically speaking), yet often times there is a lot going on in their system that could make it not go down so smoothly. 

I start the episode with a REFRAME we all need to hear whether we are dealing with magnesium backfiring or not. 

I also referenced plenty...

In this episode I’m going to share how I use mineral analysis to dig deeper into the ‘cholesterol’ story. It goes much deeper than the information and suggested 'solutions' we receive from a regular doctor's visit. I offer an alternative corrective path to medication suppression.

We really need to know it's possible for the body to heal and to prevent and not feel prey to being victims of genetics or our bodies.

There is a bit of a hierarchy when it comes to minerals - we have our macro minerals and the main two most of us know are calcium and magnesium. This mineral pair really cannot be separated and requires the OPPOSITE balance we've been taught. We really need a higher magnesium and lower calcium consumption for optimal energy and health.

In this episode, I dig into this a bit more and help you understand how to look at these two minerals in light of our modern diet. Make sure you are looking at these two closely in your diet so you can make to avoid the problems of calcification.

In this episode, recorded earlier this year, I'm talked about the role of minerals in thyroid health and how I think that mineral replacement therapy should be the new way to approach the epidemic of thyroid issues we are collectively facing. 

You'll get a high level overview on thyroid function and what minerals help your thyroid produce proper hormone function. 

Listen to Episode #54: Let's Wake Your Thyroid Back Up : Find A Joy To Be Me on iTunes, iHeartRadio, Stitcher or Spotify 

What helps your thyroid make hormones?

MINERALS. 

I truly believe that mineral replacement should become the new way to address thyroid over thyroid hormone replacement. The allopathic path clearly has shown it's incredible limitations as well as does not get to the roots of the root causes. Taking HRT in most cases is a bandaid approach. It's not a true correction. 

It's not just mineral deficiencies we are dealing with either. It's mineral deficiencies and accumulations that...

Hydration, a super basic habit we all need to employ so we can enjoy vibrant health. The first sign of dehydration is fatigue. And no, I'm not talking about just plain water. 

Please go check out my podcast episode where I might have ranted a bit about proper hydration in a persuasive yet big picture overview way like I tend to do.

It's episode #34; 'The Essential Habit You Need To Increase Energy' and you can listen HERE. 

Summer time is often when most people start to pay more attention to their hydration, because the sun and heat take it out of you. The problem is, most people are not getting sufficient minerals (electrolytes) to deeply hydrated cells, tissues and organs. 

So, I decided to make it super easy for you and created a homemade electrolyte recipe that is a replacement for Gatorade. We all know about Gatorade, right? We don't want the artificial colorings, preservatives, sugars and poor mineral forms from Gatorade. So, it's best to make our own. It's also...

In this podcast episode I was a guest on my friend Cailee of The Ripened Heart's podcast. We chatted about how I've observed that mineral imbalances do affect our emotions and personality in addition to our physical health. 

Did you know that having a mineral imbalance can have an impact on your personality and how you see the world? Mineral balancing is a delicate dance because all minerals have a relationship with each other. Take too much calcium and you get a magnesium deficiency. Consume too much salt and you deplete potassium. It's complicated stuff! And with all of the stress we've been experiencing in the past year our bodies are more depleted of minerals than ever before.

Find this guest episode of mine with Cailee over HERE. 

I shared some personal stories and examples so you can realize just how interconnected we are individually. As a whole person, it makes sense that all of who we are; mind, body, emotions, personality or soul is all connected. It's then...

In this episode, I share more about how magnesium is supercritical for endocrine function. Especially how it helps prevent and decrease PMS related symptoms. I even go into how it's helpful for a good transition to menopause. I also share how magnesium helps us make DHEA.
