138: Understanding Magnesium, Mineral Balance & Iron w/ Morley Robbins

Morley Robbins is known around the world as “the magnesium man”. His EXTENSIVE research (he must be the most well-read person I’ve met on this subject) into how chronic mineral imbalances are damaging our health, prompted him to create the Root Cause Protocol - to focus on the profound metabolic interplay between magnesium, bioavailable copper and iron. The Magnesium Advocacy Group Facebook group which teaches about RCP now has over a quarter of a million followers.    In this episode we discuss in detail: How and why we are mineral-deficient Why iron supplementation is toxic and what we need to do about “anaemia” How copper helps the body with many more health issues and processes than you ever thought How and why to take magnesium, and which sorts How to manage this during pregnancy Thyroid health I’ve personally implemented the Root Cause Protocol into my life and think it is absolutely vital for all of us to listen and understand this episode.    We’ll be going ahead with a Q&A episode for Morley as so many people ask questions on these topics.
