Low Energy? Burned Out? Metabolism Stuck? The Magnesium Fix Every Woman Needs with Dr. Carolyn Dean


Listen Later

What if one overlooked mineral could reboot your metabolism, slash pregnancy risks, and rescue you from burnout? 

Dr. Carolyn Dean—MD-ND, author of The Magnesium Miracle, and RnA ReSet founder, spent 50 years solving women’s mineral gaps with ultra-absorbable picometer magnesium.

In this myth-busting episode, Dr. Dean exposes rampant magnesium deficiency, why farming, RO water, and “seven-form” pills miss the mark, shares a sea-salt hydration fix, and rapid-fires on eclampsia, thyroid stalls, carnivore gaps, and Big Pharma’s supplement grab.

If you’ve wondered whether magnesium is just another wellness fad or the missing key to female resilience, this conversation hands you the science, strategy, and soul to claim your mineral destiny.

WE TALK ABOUT: 

12:00 - The “laxative effect” that drove Dr. Dean to invent picometer-sized magnesium

15:00 - Using magnesium for preeclampsia

20:00 - Topical magnesium, high-dose needs, and weaning safely off Rx meds

22:00 - Hydration math: body-weight formula + sea-salt trick every woman should use

23:00 - RO filters, Baja Gold sea salt (code: BIOHACKINGBRITTANY) & remineralizing your water at home

27:30 - Nine minerals your thyroid must have (and how pregnancy strips them)

35:00 - The absorption lie: why most magnesium compounds stall in the gut

40:35 - Marketing hype: “seven forms” ≠ seven benefits

45:10 - Carnivore caveats: you’d have to eat brains & testicles to meet mineral needs

51:50 - How Big Pharma quietly bought the supplement aisle—and how to spot it

58:00 - Final note: “If you don’t take charge of your health, someone else will”
