Why Supplements Aren’t Working (The Secret Deficiency No One Is Fixing) with Caroline Alan

About this episode

Caroline Alan discusses the critical role of minerals in health and the impact of glyphosate on mineral absorption.

Caroline Alan, co-founder of BEAM Minerals and author of the new book The Mineral Reset, joins Dr. Mindy to unpack why minerals are the missing foundation of every health plan, and why you can eat organic, take supplements, and still be profoundly deficient. They go deep on glyphosate, the "Trojan Horse method," and why fulvic and humic acids are the only molecules on Earth that can go inside your cells and carry glyphosate back out. If your hair is falling out, your sleep is off, your energy is low, or you're cramping for no reason, this conversation may be the missing piece. In this episode: Why eating organic is no longer enough for mineral replenishment The symptoms of mineral deficiency most people never connect to minerals How glyphosate mimics glycine and what that does to your sleep, collagen, and nervous system How fulvic acid goes inside your cells, delivers minerals, and carries glyphosate out What humic acid does in the bloodstream and why it supports autophagy RESOURCES MENTIONED: Beam Minerals, use code MINDY for 20% off: https://www.beamminerals.com/?oid=1&affid=648 Caroline's new book, The Mineral Reset: https://mineralresetbook.com/ MORE ON CAROLINE ALAN…
