How Mineralization Fuels Your Human Vehicle with Caroline Alan, The Mineral Geek

Sometimes, your health crashes and the reason is so murky, figuring out what caused it sends you down a deep rabbit hole.

That’s what today’s guest, Caroline Alan, experienced herself.

Despite never drinking or smoking and living a living a relatively healthy lifestyle, Caroline’s spent too much time in a very intense, high-tech career that wrecked her health:

She was burned out, had flatlined adrenals, had an autoimmune condition, had bad inflammation in her gut and mouth (which led to bone loss in her teeth and periodontal disease, causing her to need to get her teeth cleaned five times a year), and had never been able to sleep through the night (she used to wake up three to four times every single night for most of her life).

And then perimenopause happened, making every symptom worse and adding new ones like intense exhaustion, all sorts of anxiety and panic attacks, chronic fatigue - and the list goes on. If there’s a chronic symptom, Caroline had it.

But then she changed one key thing that forever changed the course of her health:

She remineralized her body. And went through an almost unbelievable transformation - all because of minerals.

Turns out, minerals are THE source of fuel for your cells. They are as foundational to better health and energy as sleep is. And it’s estimated that 40 to 50% of the adult population doesn’t get nearly enough minerals.

Here’s what Caroline and I discuss on today’s show:

Why there’s such a big mineral deficiency problem in the modern world
How to get ALL of your mineral needs, in the exact ratios your cells need them, from only two molecules
Why thinking of your body like a forest (instead of a mechanical car) is a paradigm shift that enables you to grow healthier with age

And, so much more, including these highlights:

How seemingly innocent things like the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) mislead you and condition you to approach your health in the wrong way (2:51)
The only two sources of fuel for your cells (and here’s the kicker: your body only makes one of the two sources) (3:37)
The “Cellular Campfire” secret that explains how the human system gets energized. (Most people don’t know this and it’s like buying a car without knowing how to fill it with gas) (3:57)
Why using a full-spectrum, highly bioavailable mineral replenishment tool is like taking the pill in Limitless. (Every neuron in your brain has up to 2 million mitochondria in it… and minerals fuel your mitochondria) (5:41)
How remineralizing cleared Caroline’s periodontal disease in about two months (before doing this she had to get her teeth cleaned five times a year) (13:20)
The neglected “Low Cell Wall Permeability” problem that explains why water doesn’t hydrate and food doesn’t nourish your body like it should (and how to fix it) (21:23)
Why taking a 65 million year old substance that originally formed after a meteor killed 75% of life on Earth in mere hours is the antidote to poor cellular health almost every modern person experiences today (22:38)
The shocking reason why modern food contains zero humic or fulvic acid (both of these molecules not only have every mineral your cells need, but they’re also in the perfect ratio) (28:08)
2 scientific ways to test whether you have mineral depletion or not (37:01)
Why you DON’T want to use magnesium for cramps (not only is fulvic a more effective, more scientific, and speedier option, but magnesium has a dark streak of causing osteopenia and osteoporosis in athletes) (40:57)
How humic and fulvic allow your body to decide which minerals it needs, how it needs them, and where it needs them 24/7 instead of becoming an armchair scientist in your spare time just to figure out your supplement stack (44:11)
