Shownotes

Are you struggling with chronic conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, or IBS?

 

Or - do you have a history of kidney stones, osteopenia / osteoporosis, depression, or anxiety?

 

Have you tried to eliminate these conditions or symptoms and wondered why your body just won’t respond — no matter what you do?

 

You’ve changed your diet. You’ve tried probiotics, detoxes, counseling, or gut health protocols… but your energy’s still low, your mood’s still off, and you feel stuck inside your own body.

 

What if I told you your body might be trapped behind something called a calcium shell?

 

A calcium shell is one of the most powerful patterns I see on HTMA testing — and it can explain everything from chronic fatigue syndromefibromyalgiabrain fog, depression, and anxiety, to constipation, bloatingIBS, kidney stones, and even osteoporosis or osteopenia.

 

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the right things but your body just isn’t budging — this episode is going to open your eyes.

 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What a calcium shell is
  • Common causes of calcium shells
  • Why so many people with hidden copper toxicity or thyroid issues have it without knowing

 

I'll also cover what you need to do to reverse calcium shells — and why breaking through a calcium shell can completely change how your body responds to food, supplements, and stress.

 

So if you’ve ever felt “Something’s missing” in your healing journey — this might be it!

 

Let’s dive in.
