Ep 63 |Trace Minerals vs Electrolytes: What Your Gut Really Needs


Listen Later

Are electrolytes and trace minerals the same thing? Not quite! In this episode, Wendy Handy, FDN-P and gut health coach, explains the key differences between trace mineral supplementation and electrolytes—and why both are crucial for gut health.

You’ll learn:

  • The role of electrolytes like sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium in hydration, bowel motility, and gut lining protection.

  • How trace minerals such as zinc, selenium, iron, and iodine support digestion, enzymes, microbiome balance, and long-term gut repair.

  • What happens to your gut when you’re deficient in either (hello bloating, cramping, diarrhea, or constipation!).

  • Simple ways to get more of these nutrients naturally through food and supplementation.

    If you’re dealing with IBD, digestive issues, or fatigue, this episode will help you understand the missing mineral link to better gut function.

    👉 Tune in to discover how electrolytes keep your gut working in the moment, while trace minerals strengthen it for the long haul.

    Stay happy, stay healthy!
