Minerals & The Nervous System

AMANDA MONTALVO
About this episode

Last week I interviewed Irene Lyon and focused on the nervous system, so this week I thought it would be fun to follow up that episode with how our nervous system affects certain minerals and testing we can use to get a visual of this. I have bonus episodes on all of these minerals inside Patreon. You can go to patreon.com/hormonehealingrd and join the exclusive tier to get access to all of the bonus episodes I’ve ever shared and submit questions for Q&As.

As always, this podcast episode is not medical advice. Please talk with your provider before making any changes to your nutrition, lifestyle, or supplements. 

This episode covers: 

  • Calcium, Phosphorus, and the Ca/P Ratio
  • How our nervous system plays a major role in our regulation of sodium
  • The relationship between stress and an increase in magnesium loss
  • About the cyclical relationship with cortisol and zinc
