Episode Details

Loren just has the coolest name ever! And if you haven’t listened to our previous podcast together about anemia and iron, go back and give that one a listen. You can also follow her on Instagram, she’s just a wealth of knowledge. So, I wanted to pick her brain about minerals and estrogen dominance and how it all relates to weight loss.

In this episode, Loren and I chat about:

➡️What are minerals?

➡️How minerals support the metabolism

➡️Foods high in minerals

➡️Different important minerals the body needs

➡️Fruits & juices and why you shouldn't be afraid to eat them

➡️Why sodium isn’t bad

➡️Why dairy is important for minerals

➡️Whether or not to supplement

➡️Magnesium, why it's important and when you would supplement with it

➡️Loren's preferred magnesium supplements

➡️What happens to your body when you’re stressed
