Shownotes

Are you suspicious that you have heavy metal toxicity, but you don't know if it's something you should actually do something about, or if it's really that key to driving your constipation?

Or - have you done a heavy metal detox, but you didn't feel better after doing it? Or you even felt even worse?

Or - have you been trying to help your constipation through a million types of magnesium, but no one has ever mentioned to you that there are other mineral deficiencies that can drive chronic constipation.

If you said yes to any of these questions - this episode is for you.

On today's episode, I'm breaking down the third of the 5 Toxin Traps keeping you constipation - heavy metals and mineral deficiencies.

  • 3 most common mistakes keeping you stuck with mineral imbalance
  • What to do instead to finally detox heavy metals and recharge your cells with the right minerals

Mineral imbalances are SO common and a huge driver to constipation - but they don't have to be! Let's dive into how you can finally be free from unwanted toxins and mineral deficiencies.
