They settle in for a deep, eye-opening conversation about the most overlooked driver of low energy, poor sleep, brain fog, and declining health: mineral deficiency. Caroline shares her personal story of complete health collapse in 2010 and how full-spectrum plant-based minerals transformed every symptom she had struggled with for years. Together, Dr. A and Caroline break down the difference between isolated mineral supplements and the full-spectrum power of humic and fulvic minerals, why your body works more like a forest than a car, and how to use minerals strategically, including during fasting.
