This week, I’m walking you through a real client case: a 22-year-old woman dealing with debilitating period cramps, constipation/bloating, and acne that were impacting her social life, mood, and energy. We used HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis) to uncover what her body actually needed—then built a simple, targeted plan.

Inside the episode, you’ll hear:

• What HTMA revealed: elevated magnesium (burning through it), high zinc and a zinc:copper pattern pointing to inflammation/estrogen dominance, a high calcium:potassium ratio (thyroid hormone not getting into cells), and a low sodium:magnesium ratio (adrenal burnout).
• How constipation can drive estrogen reabsorption—and worsen cramps, PMS, and skin.
• The exact levers we pulled first: mineral repletion (magnesium + quality sodium), digestive support, and daily habits to improve motility and hormone clearance.
• Her one-month results: period cramps dropped from 10/10 to 0 (except after coffee), and PMS down to 5/10—in just one cycle.

If you’re battling painful periods, PMS, constipation, or acne, this case will show you how data-driven mineral support can create quick, meaningful change—without guesswork.
