Nutrients, Hormones, and the Root of Modern Health Confusion
“These big wigs… they didn’t suffer magnesium deficiency like I did. I see the world through magnesium deficiency, and then I created a magnesium that’s non-laxative.”
— Dr. Carolyn Dean
The modern health conversation is bloated with clickbait, complex detoxes, and quick-fix drugs. But as Dr. Carolyn Dean reminds us, none of it matters without addressing mineral deficiency, especially magnesium. This episode challenges industry hype around trendy health protocols, outdated medical paradigms, and the reckless expansion of drugs like GLP-1 medications and SSRIs. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, this is your invitation to return to what works.
Listen as Dr. Dean discusses the root causes behind adrenal fatigue, obesity, and prescription drug dependency. Watch as she breaks down the shocking magnesium disconnect among major doctors and anti-aging influencers. Learn how mineral saturation, gut health, and nutrient synergy replace the need for fad supplements. And hear her response to the FDA’s quiet reversal on hormone therapy safety and the moral failures of medical gatekeeping. This episode is a wake-up call: honest, empowering, and deeply needed.
