Magnesium deficiency occurs in up to 80% of adults!

With escalating stress and worsening soil quality, we should all be supplementing to have sufficient levels. Magnesium is essential in over 300 reactions (at the very least) within the human body and so symptoms of low levels can vary widely from headaches to muscle twitches to insomnia.

Dr Dean is a medical doctor, naturopath, best selling author and creator of the RnA ReSet selling high quality supplements with decades of research and experience to back up their success.

Anemia is a common health condition where iron is deficient so we use food and medications to replenish stores. But what if it's not iron deficiency but iron disfunction?

Today's podcast guest says we have more than enough iron in our body but we're unable to access it because we're lacking an even more important nutrient, copper.

Morley Robbins is the best selling author of 'Cure Your Fatigue' and founder of The Root Cause Protocol and the Magnesium Advocacy Group. His powerful message is based around the balancing of 3 key minerals, iron, magnesium and copper to answer your fatigue issues and so much more.

This conversation is very in depth! Morley teaches us about minerals in a way no other guest has on this show before, so make notes!
