The Critical Process of Mineral Absorption with Barton Scott | Wellness Sherpa with Jenn Payeur

Mineral absorption is the critical process where essential minerals, such as iron, calcium, and magnesium, are taken up from the diet and utilized throughout the body. Various factors such as gut health, medications, and diet can interfere with mineral absorption - which can lead to deficiencies and cause a wide range of health issues. It’s important to detect potential mineral deficiencies in order to provide the body with necessary nutritional interventions.In this episode of The Wellness Sherpa, Jenn and Barton Scot explore the world of minerals and HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis). Barton Scot is a chemical engineer, nutritionist, and founder of Upgraded Formulas. He is passionate about helping others understand the role of minerals in the body, how they influence your health, and what steps you can take to support it. #JenniferPayeur #WellnessSherpa #NatureProvides[00:00] - Intro[01:23] - Get to Know Barton Scot  [10:39] - Stress and Minerals[19:51] - What is HTMA?
