In this episode, I’m diving into a topic I mention all the time but haven’t broken down in full until now—mineral deficiencies. We always hear “drink more water,” but hydration isn’t just about water—it’s about electrolytes and minerals your body must have to function.
I walk you through the big ones—sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, selenium, and phosphorus—breaking down the common symptoms when you’re running low and how to naturally replenish them with real food (and the right timing ⏰). From restless legs and brittle nails to fatigue, irritability, and brain fog, so many everyday struggles might actually be linked to missing minerals.
I also share a few personal insights about managing minerals with Type 1 Diabetes, Hashimoto’s, and thyroid health, plus why timing your thyroid meds and supplements correctly can make a huge difference. And of course, I sprinkle in some fun family updates—including a shout-out to my dad, brother, and pregnant sister-in-law who just rocked a 5K! 👏
