Today, I am delighted to reconnect with Caroline Alan, affectionately known as the Mineral Geek. Caroline is a health survivor, mineral expert, and educator on a mission to shift the way we think about cellular health. Her transformative experience sparked a deep dive into the science of minerals and human physiology. Caroline is the author of The Mineral Reset and Co-founder and CEO of Beam Minerals.
In today’s discussion, Caroline shares her personal story of poor adrenal health in perimenopause. We explore the effects of plant-based minerals, the prevalence of mineral deficiencies in our modern-day lifestyles, and the impact of key stages in a woman's life, including menstruation, pregnancy, perimenopause, and menopause. We examine how macro- and micronutrient deficiencies are exacerbated by poor gut health, the value of humic and fulvic acids, and how humic and fulvic molecules can support the body at a foundational level and assist in balancing our health during perimenopause and menopause. We also discuss the circumstances and challenges women experience in middle age, and highlight some essential paradigm shifts to consider as we age.
Caroline truly loves sharing this vital information with the world, so you certainly won’t want to miss today’s insightful conversation with her.
