## Resource

Copper Balance and Iron Toxicity in Midlife may be one of the most overlooked conversations in women's health today. In this eye-opening episode of the Lisa Fischer Said Podcast , Lisa Fischer welcomes wellness educator Samantha Chandler to challenge everything you thought you knew about iron deficiency, anemia, menopause, pregnancy, and healthy aging. Samantha explains why iron may not be the real problem, how copper helps regulate iron throughout the body, and why nutrient balance—not simply taking more supplements—matters for optimal health. Together they explore bioavailable copper, cod liver oil, vitamin A, glyphosate exposure, iron-fortified foods, blood donation, pregnancy, gray hair, vitiligo, sunlight, seasonal eating, and practical ways women can better support their bodies during every stage of life. Whether you're navigating menopause, recovering after pregnancy, or simply searching for answers traditional medicine hasn't provided, this episode offers an entirely new perspective on wellness. 👉 Subscribe to the Lisa Fischer Said Podcast, join the newsletter at https://lisafischersaid.com/podcast/ , and follow @lisafischersaid for more.
